Eyebrow Restoration Process

Surgery Date: December 7, 2006

Patient designs preferred eyebrow shape.

 

The length of the eyebrow is about 5 cm.

 

The widest part is 0.6 cm.

 

The narrowest part is about 0.2 to 0.3 cm.

The eyebrow area is 5 cm x 0.6 cm=3 cm2 on each side.

 

The eyebrow outline is about 11 cm (5cm +5cm+0.6cm +0.3cm).

We made 125 slits on the outline, the distance between each graft is about 0.8 mm.

 

We made 277 slits on an area of 3 cm2.

(The slit number depends on graft number available.)

 

Photo of grafts:

Longer hair is used for immediate results and hair direction checking.

 

We protect the ultra thin and delicate grafts by keeping moisture inside the grafts.

 

This photo shows same direction of transplanted hair and original eyebrow hair.

(Coarser hair is the transplanted hair and the fine hair is original eyebrow hair.)

 

We transplanted 277 grafts on one side of eyebrow (area=3cm2).

This is about 92 grafts in one centimeter square.

Six months after surgery-patient was very happy about the result. We have achieved his goal in one surgery.

Comments:
The average density on this eyebrow is 92 grafts per cm2. Should I be proud of it? No. Not at all. Every hair transplant facility should have no problem to achieve this super dense packing. As long as you make the slits very small and trim all the tissues around the hair.

Our clinic can achieve 92 % density easily, but why we do not perform super dense packing on all hair transplant procedures?

I have checked the growth rate of the eyebrow hair six months after the surgery; the total re-growth is 455 hairs. The growth rate is 82%. Our average growth rate for hair transplant on scalp is about 96%. In another word, with the super dense packing, we have sacrificed 14% of hair.

To use this method on hair transplantation on the scalp, we should have very strict patient selection. This super dense packing method is not good for everyone.
