Eyebrow Transplants Vs Typical Transplants: Your eyebrow hairs grow from the follicle at a sharp angle, so, unlike the hairs on your head, your eyebrow hair is growing flat against the surface of your skin. The growth cycle of your eyebrow hair is also far shorter than that of the hairs of your scalp – about four months, as compared to three to seven years. Unlike your scalp hair, your eyebrow hairs grow as individual strands; there are no follicular groups of hairs in a bunch that can be moved from one area to another.

Those are among the reasons a skilled surgeon is needed to perform the delicate task of eyebrow restoration, and UGraft advanced FUE is an excellent approach. UGraft eyebrow transplant involves transplanting individual strands of hair from another part of your body or your finer nape hairs to your eyebrow area. The new hair will look a little different from your original eyebrows and have a different growth rate, but over time it will begin to mimic your existing eyebrow hair.

Keep in mind, because your new eyebrow hair comes short body hair, it would require less trimming than typical eyebrow transplants that utilize hairs from the head which are faster growing
