How is the Procedure Performed?
1. Local Anesthesia: The donor area and the recipient area are numbed with local anesthesia.
2. Hair Extraction: The surgeon extracts small hair follicles from the back of the scalp or behind the ears.
3. Follicle Implantation: These follicles are then carefully implanted along the lash line using very fine instruments to ensure the lashes grow in a natural direction
Who is a Candidate for Eyelash Transplant?
This procedure may be suitable for people who:
1. Experience eyelash loss* due to health conditions like alopecia or immune deficiencies.
2. Suffer from eyelash damage* caused by burns or accidents.
3. Desire cosmetic enhancement* for individuals with naturally thin or short eyelashes.
What to Expect from the Results?
After the eyelash transplant, the new follicles begin producing hair within a few weeks. Full results can usually be seen within 2 weeks to 6 months.
The newly transplanted lashes will look natural, and the patient can trim or curl them just like natural lashes.
Benefits of Eyelash Transplantation
1. Permanent Results: Unlike eyelash extensions or false lashes, which require regular maintenance, eyelash transplantation offers a permanent solution.
2. Natural Appearance: Since natural hair follicles are used, the transplanted lashes will grow and behave just like regular lashes.
3. Boost in Confidence: Enhancing the appearance of the eyes can greatly improve one’s self-esteem.
