Treatment Overview
The Eyebrow FUT Transplant, also known as Strip-Derived Graft Eyebrow Transplant, is a specialized microsurgical procedure that restores or enhances eyebrow shape and density using the Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) technique.
In this method, a small strip of donor scalp is removed (usually from the back of the head), and individual follicular units are microscopically dissected and implanted into the eyebrow area. Each graft is carefully placed to mimic the natural growth angle and curvature of eyebrow hair, resulting in a soft, realistic, and permanent appearance.
Korea has become a top global destination for eyebrow transplants due to its expertise in aesthetic micro-implantation, advanced dissection under stereo microscopes, and natural design artistry that matches each patient’s face and features.
Purpose & Benefits
The goal of the Eyebrow FUT Transplant is to restore natural, full, and symmetrical eyebrows for individuals with thinning, scarring, or congenital hair loss.
Key Benefits
- Permanent solution for thin, patchy, or missing eyebrows
- Natural shape, direction, and texture
- Dense coverage using fine, single-hair grafts
- Ideal for both partial and full eyebrow restoration
- Minimal downtime with long-lasting results
- Cost-effective and reliable compared to artificial tattooing or microblading
Ideal Candidates
This treatment is suitable for:
- Women or men with sparse or over-plucked eyebrows
- Individuals with scars or trauma causing eyebrow hair loss
- Patients with alopecia, burns, or congenital eyebrow gaps
- Those seeking aesthetic enhancement for fuller or reshaped brows
- Individuals who prefer permanent, natural hair growth over cosmetic tattooing
Possible Risks & Complications
Eyebrow FUT is a safe and controlled procedure, but minor, temporary effects may occur:
- Mild swelling or redness around the eyebrow area for 2–3 days
- Minor scabbing during early healing
- Temporary shedding of transplanted hairs before regrowth
- Slight linear scar in donor area (hidden under existing hair)
Korean clinics minimize these effects using PRP therapy, micro-healing serums, and precise microsurgical tools to ensure comfort and flawless healing.
Techniques & Technology Used
Korean surgeons use microsurgical FUT extraction combined with microscopic dissection and ultra-fine implantation tools for high aesthetic precision.
Advanced Techniques Used in Korea
- Microscopic Graft Dissection: Preserves delicate follicular units under high magnification.
- Trichophytic Donor Closure: Makes donor scar nearly invisible.
- Single-Hair Graft Implantation: Each graft is placed following the natural angle of eyebrow hair.
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy: Accelerates healing and strengthens new growth.
- Digital Eyebrow Design: Customized design to match facial symmetry and gender.
Korean eyebrow transplant experts focus on eyebrow direction, arch, and density balance, ensuring lifelike results suitable for both men and women.
Treatment Process in Korea
- Consultation & Design: Surgeon designs the ideal eyebrow shape and thickness based on facial features.
- Strip Harvesting: A narrow donor strip is painlessly extracted from the scalp.
- Microscopic Dissection: Follicular units are separated into single-hair grafts under stereo microscopes.
- Recipient Site Preparation: Tiny micro-incisions made following eyebrow direction and angle.
- Implantation: Grafts are implanted individually for natural flow and contour.
- Aftercare: PRP application and recovery instructions provided.
International patients receive personalized aesthetic consultations, multilingual support, and medical tourism coordination for a smooth, luxurious experience in Korea.
Recovery & After-Care
Recovery after an eyebrow FUT transplant is quick and comfortable:
- Mild redness and swelling for 2–3 days
- Avoid makeup and eyebrow grooming for 10–14 days
- Gentle cleansing after 3 days
- Transplanted hairs shed within 2–3 weeks (normal phase)
- New growth begins after 3–4 months
- Full results visible within 8–12 months
Korean clinics often recommend post-transplant PRP or low-level laser therapy (LLLT) to promote stronger regrowth and faster healing.
Results & Longevity
Results from an Eyebrow FUT Transplant are natural, permanent, and beautifully defined.
- 95–98% graft survival rate
- Natural direction and texture matching facial features
- Long-term growth with soft, natural density
- Freedom to trim, shape, or style the brows as desired
Unlike cosmetic tattooing, transplanted eyebrow hairs are real and lifelong, creating a natural enhancement that ages gracefully.
