Intro To Eyelash Transplant

Are you ready to enhance the youth and beauty of your eyes? Having long, luscious eyelashes can do just that! Eyelash treatments have skyrocketed recently, including eyelash extensions, growth serums, and tints, but nothing can enhance the shape of eyelashes as an eyelash transplant. Eyelash transplant is a surgical procedure to improve and enhance eyelashes by transferring new hair from the back of the head to the eyelash area in the upper or lower eyelid. Often, people opt for this surgery for cosmetic purposes, but it also can treat eyelash damage caused by trauma and burns. Similar to hair transplants, surgeons usually rely on follicular unit extraction (FUE) technology to perform eyelash transplants.

The recovery phase after the surgery is straightforward. However, there are some issues that you need to consider during this period, including:

  • Expect to experience bruising and some scabbing along the lash line, but these symptoms usually fade away after a few days.
  • Wear goggles or sunglasses during sleep to protect the transplanted lashes in the first week.
  • You must avoid strenuous activity for a day or two after the procedure.
  • Expect the newly transplanted lashes to fall out after 2 weeks of the surgery. This is normal as they will enter a “resting phase” before regrowing again after 12 weeks.
  • You must avoid using mascara or lash curlers for two weeks.
