Why People Get Eyebrow Transplants

Many people seek eyebrow transplants for various reasons. Genetic factors often cause naturally thin or sparse eyebrows that no amount of makeup can convincingly fill. Moreover, years of over-plucking while following changing beauty trends can lead to permanent follicle damage.
Medical conditions like alopecia, trichotillomania, or scarring can also cause eyebrow hair loss. The natural ageing process thins eyebrow hair over time, while injuries or burns might damage follicles permanently.
Ideal candidates typically have sufficient donor hair and realistic expectations about results. The best outcomes come when patients understand both the procedure and the recovery process.
The FUE Eyebrow Transplant Process
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) stands as the gold standard technique for eyebrow transplants in 2025.
The procedure begins with harvesting individual hair follicles from a donor site. We typically select the nape of the neck or behind the ears, where hair texture closely matches eyebrow hair.
Next comes the creation of tiny recipient sites in the eyebrow region. This critical step requires artistic vision and technical precision.
The surgeon then carefully places each follicle at the correct angle for natural growth. This meticulous process typically takes 4-6 hours under local anaesthesia.
A review by PMC found that eyebrow transplantation requires precision and detailed knowledge of anatomy to achieve natural results.
Graft Requirements for Natural-Looking Eyebrows
The number of grafts needed varies based on your current eyebrow condition and desired outcome.
Eyebrows typically divide into three sections:
Section | Typical Graft Requirement |
---|---|
Head | 200-300 grafts |
Body | 300-500 grafts |
Tail | 100-200 grafts |
Standard eyebrows usually require approximately 600 grafts total. Fuller, bolder brows might need 800-1,000+ grafts.
Your desired density significantly affects the final price. During consultation, we help customise your graft count to achieve your aesthetic goals while balancing cost considerations.

What’s Included in Your Eyebrow Transplant Cost
A quality eyebrow transplant package should include several essential components.
Consultation and planning sessions form the foundation of successful outcomes. We provide thorough assessment of your eyebrows, discussion of goals, and custom treatment planning.
The surgical procedure itself includes local anaesthesia, donor hair extraction, creation of recipient sites, and careful placement of each follicle.
Post-operative care and products are crucial for optimal healing. Our package includes specialised cleaning solutions, medication to prevent infection, and detailed at-home care instructions.
Follow-up appointments ensure your transplant heals properly. We schedule regular check-ups to monitor progress and address any concerns.
At Aventus Clinic, we include all these elements in our transparent pricing, with absolutely no hidden costs.
Spotting Value: What Quality Clinics Include
Not all clinics offer the same value, even at similar price points.

Verify the clinic’s CQC registration to ensure they meet rigorous safety and quality standards. This non-negotiable credential protects your health and well-being.
Review before and after portfolios showing natural hairline design. Quality results should complement facial features rather than appear artificial.
Check for comprehensive aftercare support. The best clinics provide detailed recovery guidance and remain accessible for questions.
Beware of clinics advertising extremely low prices. They often cut corners on crucial aspects or add hidden fees later.

Understanding the recovery process helps manage expectations and plan accordingly.
Week 1: Expect some redness, swelling, and tiny crusts around transplanted follicles. These typically subside within 7 days.
Weeks 2-3: Most visible signs of the procedure fade. Some transplanted hairs may shed, which is completely normal.
Months 1-3: Little visible growth occurs during this “dormant phase.” Patience remains essential.
Months 4-6: New hair begins growing. You’ll notice improvement in density.
Months 9-12: Significant growth becomes visible. Your new eyebrows take their final shape.
12-18 Months: Final results appear, with full density and natural appearance.
Long-term maintenance includes occasional trimming, as donor hair retains its original growth characteristics.
