Who Is a Good Candidate for Eyebrow Transplantation?
Eyebrow transplantation is a microsurgical procedure that uses your own hair follicles to correct permanent thinning and gaps in the eyebrow area. At our clinic in Nişantaşı, it is most commonly performed in the following cases:
- Years of gathering and shaping resulting in weakened hair follicles
- Genetically thin and sparse eyebrows structure
- Scar or scar tissue no hair growing on it
- Resulting from alopecia areata (alopecia) permanent eyebrow loss
- Microblading or permanent makeup The search for a natural and permanent solution
- After trauma, burns, or surgery localized eyebrow loss
Not every candidate may be suitable for every method. If there is an active autoimmune process or if the hair density in the donor area is insufficient, the treatment plan will be adjusted. For this reason, a decision cannot be made without a physical examination and facial analysis.
The Difference Between Long FUE, Classic FUE, and FUT
The most important factors determining the outcome of an eyebrow transplant are how the grafts are harvested and at what angle they are implanted. The practical differences between the three techniques are as follows:
| Comparison | Long FUE Recommended | Classic FUE | FUT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shaving the donor site | It's not necessary | It is necessary | It is necessary |
| View the result | During the transaction | After stretching | After stretching |
| Donor mark | The dot is hidden among the hairs | Period | Linear stitch mark |
| Hair length | Long (1–2 cm) | Short | Short |
| Return to Social Life | 1 day | A few days | Longer |
| Its current status | Preferred | In certain cases | Largely abandoned |
At our clinic, procedures that do not require shaving Long FUE This method is emphasized because working with long hairs allows the eyebrow design to be seen during the procedure and enables immediate adjustments to the angle.
Take the First Step to Natural and Permanent Eyebrows
From the Initial Consultation to the Final Result: The Eyebrow Transplant Process
- Preliminary assessment and facial analysis. The structure of the eyebrows, facial proportions, and the capacity of the donor area are examined.
- Eyebrow design and graft plan. The direction and density of the hair are determined based on the golden ratio; the required number of grafts is established.
- Local anesthesia. Only the eyebrow and nape areas are numbed; general anesthesia is not used.
- Graft harvesting. Fine hair follicles with the genetic trait that prevents hair loss are removed one by one from the back of the head.
- Placement. Each graft is placed individually, in accordance with the hair's natural growth angle.
- The first two weeks. Crusting and mild redness are expected symptoms; the care protocol is followed.
- Sudden hair loss. Most of the transplanted hair falls out temporarily. Since the roots remain in the skin, the hair begins to grow back starting in the third month.
- Final result. It takes 6–12 months for the eyebrows to settle completely.
Factors That Determine the Cost of Eyebrow Transplantation
There is no single fixed price for eyebrow transplants; the cost is calculated on a case-by-case basis. The main factors that determine the price are:
- Number of grafts. Typically, 200–400 grafts are used for a pair of eyebrows, and this number has the greatest impact on the cost.
- The selected technique. Shave-Free Long FUE requires more labor and time compared to traditional methods.
- The complexity of the design. Filling in a small gap in the eyebrow tail doesn't require the same amount of effort as designing an eyebrow from scratch.
- Medical and clinical standards. Microscopic graft dissection and sterile outpatient clinic conditions are reflected in the cost.
We recommend that you approach fixed-price offers you come across online with caution. It would be misleading to provide a specific figure without examining the patient first.

Frequently Asked Questions About Eyebrow Transplantation
We’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions about eyebrow transplants for you.
Is eyebrow transplantation permanent?
Yes. Since the hair follicles used are harvested from the back of the head, they carry the genetic trait that prevents hair loss and retain this trait in the area where they are transplanted.
Will I feel any pain during the procedure?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. After the anesthesia takes effect, sensation of pain in the eyebrow and nape areas is blocked; the patient remains awake and comfortable throughout the procedure.
How many grafts are needed?
Typically, 200–400 grafts are used for a pair of eyebrows. The exact number is determined during the consultation based on the current eyebrow density, the size of the area to be filled in, and the desired design.
How long does an eyebrow transplant take?
Depending on the number of grafts required and the technique chosen, the procedure is usually completed in a single session. The total time spent at the clinic is planned to include design and preparation.
When can I get back to my social life?
Since the donor area is not incised in the Shave-Free Long FUE method, there is no visible change; our patients typically return to their daily lives the next day.
Do transplanted eyebrows look natural?
A natural look depends on the selection of single, fine grafts and the correct determination of the hair’s growth angle. In the eyebrow area, the result looks natural when the hairs are angled downward and outward.
