This procedure simply involves moving hair from one part of the body (usually the back of the head) to the eyelash area (upper or lower eyelid). This helps guarantee a fuller and longer lash appearance.
This surgery is not limited to cosmetic purposes, as this surgery can be performed on people who have experienced trauma to the eye area.

Step 2- Taking hair follicles from the donor area:
Hair follicles are removed from the donor area and placed under a microscope to ensure that they are healthy and transplantable.
Step 3- Performing an eyelash transplant procedure:
Eyelash transplants are performed using a specialized eyelash transplant needle which helps the surgeon accurately and efficiently implant the hair follicles.
recovery after eyelash transplant surgery
After having an eyelash transplant surgery, it’s normal for you to experience swelling and bruising of the eyelid area for days to weeks.
However, the back of your head (where lashes were taken from) typically recovers within days, without too much discomfort.
You should expect the transplanted hairs to begin to fall out during 5 to 8 days after the procedure. This prompts new hair shafts to grow over the course of 4 to 6 months.
Results from eyelash transplant surgery will become noticeable over time, so that the results of the surgery are best judged after at least 12 months.

What is an eyelash transplant surgery?
Eyelash transplant surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of eyelashes. During the surgery, hair follicles are harvested from other parts of the body, typically the scalp, and implanted into the eyelid area.
Does the eyelash transplant procedure give permanent or temporary results?
Eyelash transplant procedures typically provide permanent results. During the procedure, hair follicles are transplanted from another area of the body to the eyelid, allowing for natural growth. Once the transplanted hair follicles establish themselves, they can continue to produce lashes just like natural eyelashes.
Where does eyelash hair come from?
Eyelash hair originates from the hair follicles located in the eyelid’s skin, much like the hair found on the scalp or other body parts. These follicles produce strands of keratin, a protein that makes up the structure of hair. Each eyelash typically grows to a specific length and has a unique growth cycle, which includes phases of growth, rest, and shedding.
What is an ectropion?
Ectropion is a medical condition characterized by the outward turning of the eyelid, which can expose the inner surface of the eyelid and lead to irritation, redness, and discomfort. It is most commonly seen in older adults due to the weakening of tissue around the eye but can also result from injury, scarring, or certain medical conditions.
What is an entropion?
Entropion is a medical condition characterized by the inward folding of the edge of the eyelid. This abnormal positioning causes the eyelashes to rub against the surface of the eye, leading to irritation, discomfort, and potential damage to the cornea.
Results
An eyelash transplant is a cosmetic procedure in which the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation method is utilized to take the hair with similar characteristics to the eyelashes and transplant hair in the upper or lower eyelid of the eye. The goal is that new hairs will grow from these grafts, producing a fuller, more natural look to the eyelashes.
