These are respectively; – Consultation phase – Extraction of hair follicles from the donor area – Eyebrow transplantation with Choi needle – Bandage after eyebrow transplantation

Consultation Phase

Eyebrow transplantation is an application that requires individual planning. Although the procedures of the operations performed are essentially the same, both the eyebrow design and the number of grafts to be applied differ from person to person. The facial features and structure of the person, the anatomical lines and the degree of deformation of eyebrows necessitate the personalizes planning of these stages. During the consultation phase ask our team about the medical history of the patient. Our team then prepares the eyebrow design that is compatible with the facial features and informs the patient how to be transplanted.

Extraction of hair follicles from the donor area

Before this procedure, local anesthesia is applied to the patient first. This provides the patient’s maximum comfort during the application. Then the extraction of the hair roots from the donor area is started. The number of hair follicles to be taken varies depending on the width of the area to be planted. In eyebrow transplantation, mostly the grafts in the back of the head are selected as the donor area. Although body hair is also an option, this area is often preferred as a donor area as the hair harvested from the nape of the neck is more resistant to hair loss.

Eyebrow transplantation with the Choi needle

In eyebrow transplants performed with using the DHI technique or the Choi technique, the grafts taken at this stage are planted in the relevant area with the help of a Choi needle. At this phase, there is no channel opening like in the FUE technique. The hair follicles, which are taken from the donor area, are transplanted directly into the recipient area. A local anesthetic is also applied in the donor area before the procedure, as in the recipient area. This prevents possible discomfort and pain sensations during the application and ensures that the phase is completed more comfortably.

Bandage after eyebrow transplant

A bandage after eyebrow transplantation is the final stage. This step is done the day after the procedure. Two points are taken into consideration at this point. These are one is whether the hair follicles take root to the recipient area in the application and the other is whether there is a possibility of complications.
