Eyebrow Transplant

Eyebrow transplants are a procedure where a cosmetic surgeon takes a graft of hair (plug). The surgeon takes the graft with both the hair and its roots (follicle) and moves it to the eyebrow area. The hair graft is usually removed from the nape of your neck or the area around your ear. Once the hair grafts are removed, they’re placed in a storage container with a chilled saline solution for up to an hour before they are implanted in your eyebrows by the surgeon.

There can be slight bruising and swelling in the area for up to five days. A saline spray should be applied every 2 to 3 hours. It’s common for your doctor to prescribe painkillers, antibiotics, and steroids to take by mouth for up to five days after your surgery.
