What is an eyebrow transplant?
An eyebrow transplant procedure is performed by a cosmetic surgeon. It is a permanent solution to patchy, thinning eyebrows. The procedure involves extracting hair follicles from one area of your body and transplanting them to your eyebrows. This results in fuller, more defined eyebrows, without having to use makeup products every single day.
Why do people choose to have an eyebrow hair transplant in Mumbai?
It is an effective cosmetic procedure for those people who are feeling self-conscious of the appearance of their eyebrows.
What causes loss of hair from your eyebrows?
There are a number of reasons people may suffer from lost hair or thinning eyebrows:
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
- Thyroid issues
- Hansen’s disease
- Stress and anxiety
- Pregnancy and childbirth
- Telogen effluvium

Am I a good candidate for an eyebrow transplant in Mumbai?
If you are generally in good health and have realistic expectations for the procedure, then you are a good candidate. Dr Malay Mehta offers a free consultation, during which he will assess your eyebrows and goals for the procedure to determine if you are an ideal candidate.
What is the eyebrow hair transplant process?
The process for an eyebrow transplant is very similar to a traditional hair transplant. We take hair from a donor area, such as the back of the head where the hair is thick, and transplant it to the eyebrow line.
Appointment
You will have an initial consultation with Dr Malay Mehta, where he will assess your eyebrows and discuss the procedure with you. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions and ensure you understand all aspects of the surgery, recovery and aftercare.
The procedure
You will be given a local anaesthesia so you don’t feel any pain. We will then extract donor grafts (usually from just above your ears). These hair follicles are transferred with the hair intact to the eyebrows. The entire process is about 2 to 3 hours.
Recovery and aftercare
In the first few days you will have some scabbing around the brows and the donor area. After 3 to 7 days these scabs will start to fall off. At that time you may notice some redness, but that is completely normal. 2-3 weeks later, your transplanted hairs will start to fall out. This is normal and they will soon grow back thicker and fuller.
It is vital that you follow post-operative care instructions to ensure the eyebrow transplant is a success.
- Don’t touch your eyebrows for 24 hours.
- Use the saline follicle spray provided to promote healing.
- After 24 hours use the specialist shampoo provided to wash your face and eyebrows.
- Pat dry, don’t rub.
- Don’t use makeup until your incisions have fully healed (about 2 weeks after the surgery).
- Avoid direct sunlight for the first month.
- Don’t pluck your eyebrows until at least 6 to 12 months after the surgery.
Risks and side effects of an eyebrow transplantation.
There is a very small risk of complications post an eyebrow transplantation:
- Swelling
- Nerve damage
- Infection
Excessive bleeding - Scarring
- Bruising
- Failure of the hair grafts

How common are eyebrow transplants?
Eyebrow hair restoration procedures have become increasingly popular as a way to achieve fuller, natural-looking brows without the use of makeup.
Do eyebrow transplants work?
Yes, an eyebrow transplant is an effective procedure to restore and enhance your brows. If you follow the post-surgery advice you will achieve optimal results.
Are eyebrows transplants permanent?
An eyebrow transplant procedure is a permanent solution for thinning, damaged brows. Once again, you need to follow the advice of your surgeon to ensure the success of the surgery.
Do you still need to shape your brows after getting an eyebrow transplant?
While the transplanted hair follicles follow a natural growth pattern, some shaping may still be needed to achieve your desired look. It is highly recommended you avoid plucking the hairs in your eyebrows for at least 6 to 12 months after the surgery.
Do eyebrows grow long after an eyebrow transplant?
Yes, the donor hair may grow longer than your native brow hair. Your surgeon will provide advice about when and how to groom your eyebrows to the desired length and shape, without damaging the transplanted grafts.
Can I implant another person’s hair on my eyebrows?
No, this is not possible even if the person is related to you. It often leads to rejection of the graft and complications.
What is the recovery time for an eyebrow transplant?
Most patients can resume all their regular activities and work within a week after an eyebrow transplant procedure. Your surgeon will provide further guidance on the recovery period, what to expect and when you can resume exercise, work and other activities.
What are the potential side effects of getting an eyebrow transplant?
While rare, some potential complications include infection, scarring, bleeding, graft failure and swelling.
Why is it important to choose a hair transplant specialist for eyebrow surgery?
An experienced plastic surgeon or hair transplant specialist is trained in precise follicular unit extraction (FUE hair transplants) and transplantation techniques to address hair loss, including that of the eyebrow. They will ensure natural-looking results from the surgery.
Do eyebrow transplants leave scars?
When performed by trained and skilled surgeons there is minimal scarring associated with an eyebrow transplantation.
How are the hairs for an eyebrow transplant obtained?
Using a specialised follicular unit extraction technique, your surgeon will carefully remove hair follicles from a donor area, usually from the area above your ears or from the back of the scalp. This is then transplanted to your brows.
Is an eyebrow transplant painful?
A local anaesthetic is administered prior to the procedure, minimising pain and discomfort. Any discomfort after your eyebrow transplantation can be managed with mild pain relief and following the advice of your surgeon.
