Eyebrow transplant involves implanting hair follicles into thin or bare areas of the eyebrows to create a natural shape and fuller density.
Eyebrows are a defining feature of facial expression. Eyebrow transplant requires meticulous placement — each hair is implanted at an angle and direction that follows the natural brow grain.
At MOLIV, we analyze your face shape, eye contour, and existing brow growth pattern to design the most natural-looking eyebrow for you.
If you have long maintained your brow shape with tattooing, a transplant is worth considering once blurring or discoloration begins. Transplanting over an existing tattoo is possible — restoring the brow with real hair rather than pigment.
Effects
- Thin or sparse eyebrows are restored with a natural shape and density
- A customized eyebrow design is created to match your face shape and eye contour
- Unlike semi-permanent makeup, real hair grows for a natural-looking result
Recommended for
- Those with naturally thin or sparse eyebrows
- Patients whose eyebrows have been damaged by over-plucking or trauma
Process
Facial Analysis — We study your eye shape, facial structure, and existing brow pattern.
Eyebrow Design — Shape and density are planned to suit your natural facial impression.
Precision Implantation — Hairs are placed one by one, following the natural brow direction.
Follow-Up — We monitor graft survival and the formation of a natural-looking brow.
Precautions
- Transplanted eyebrow hair comes from scalp follicles and may require periodic trimming
- Mild swelling may occur at the treatment site and typically subsides within 5–7 days
- The transplant area should not be rubbed or irritated for approximately one week after the procedure
Related FAQ
Will the transplanted eyebrows look natural?
By aligning each implanted hair with the natural brow grain, we achieve a very natural-looking result.
Will the transplanted eyebrow hair need trimming?
Since scalp follicles are used, the transplanted hairs may grow longer than native brow hair, so periodic trimming is recommended.
How does recovery progress?
Mild swelling may appear for the first 2–3 days, and scabs fall away naturally over 7–14 days. Transplanted hairs shed temporarily between weeks 2 and 8, new growth begins around months 3–4, and the result matures over 6–12 months. The head doctor reviews your progress together at each follow-up visit.
What graft survival rate can I expect?
It varies with scalp condition and the treated area, but through a process designed to minimize follicle damage from extraction to placement, you can generally expect a graft survival rate of 95% or higher.
When can I wash my hair?
Gentle washing usually starts on day 3–4 following the method we guide you through, and from about a week on you can wash as usual. We help you with the first wash in person when you visit.
How is this different from eyebrow tattooing?
Tattooing draws the shape with pigment, while an eyebrow transplant moves your own hair to create brows that actually grow. If you want natural brows with real texture, or your tattoo has blurred and faded, a transplant can be the alternative.
