Types of eyebrow transplantation methods
What is the eyebrow transplantation process like?
To perform the transplantation procedure, the necessary examinations must first be performed by a doctor to determine that the person can be a suitable candidate for the procedure without any problems or obstacles. After the doctor’s approval, the selected method is selected and appropriate for the person’s problem. According to the selected method, the doctor performs the operation and transplantation process. Usually, the procedure is performed with local anesthesia. The duration of the procedure is directly related to the complexity and amount of graft required.
What are the types of eyebrow grafting methods?
The eyebrow grafting process is a highly specialized process that is performed through various methods. Usually, the person’s own hair follicles are used for grafting. The most important and popular eyebrow grafting methods will be mentioned below.
· FUT or Follicular Unit Transplantation
In the FUT or Follicular Unit Transplantation method, the required follicle is usually separated from the person’s own body and from the back of the head. During a precise process, the removed area is converted into single units of the follicle and will be ready to be transferred to the eyebrow area. This method is usually highly recommended for people who need significant repair in their eyebrows.
· FUE or Follicular Unit Extraction Eyebrow Grafting
FUE grafting is a more advanced model of the Follicular Unit Transplantation method. In the method in question, instead of removing the area with follicles in a strip, the units are punched more delicately. This has caused no problem with wounds and scars in the donor area and the healing process is much faster.
· DHI or direct implantation
Direct implantation is actually a more modern method than the previous two methods. During the procedure, the desired follicles are harvested from the donor site individually and directly, then they will be transferred to the implantation area. The harvested follicle is placed in the eyebrow area through a small incision at the same time. The level of accuracy in this type of eyebrow implantation method is very high and the doctor has more control over the process. As a result, a more natural eyebrow with better results will be obtained.
Robotic hair transplantation is one of the eyebrow transplantation methods
As the name of the method suggests, the process is carried out by advanced robots designed to perform the implantation work. The accuracy of robots is very high and they do their job without errors. Robots examine and analyze the donor and recipient areas well and then select the best option and follicle for donation. Usually, the use of robots is more used in hair transplantation, but they can also be very useful in the eyebrow transplantation process.
· Neograft transplantation
The above method is also considered one of the modern methods. It can be considered a semi-automatic version of the Fue method. By using the above method, you can experience a natural transplant in the eyebrow area.
Which eyebrow transplantation method is better?
To answer the above question, you should pay attention to the results and conditions you want to achieve. Given the variety of eyebrow transplantation methods, it is necessary to consult a specialist before receiving any services.

Often, if you are one of those people who need a transplant due to thinning eyebrow hair, the Fut method is more suitable for you.
