Yes. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, transparency is a core part of our process. After your consultation, assessment and graft estimation, we provide a clear, detailed quote outlining all associated costs. This includes the procedure, follow-up visits, aftercare recommendations and any additional treatments you may benefit from. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, compare options and fully understand the investment before deciding to proceed.

The night before surgery, avoid alcohol, heavy meals and any medications not approved by your surgeon. Take a gentle shower and avoid applying oils, lotions, makeup or hair products around the eyebrow or scalp area. Getting a good night’s sleep is important for a smooth procedure.

On the day of surgery, wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing, preferably something that doesn’t need to be pulled over your head. Avoid jewellery, perfumes or creams. Ensure your face is completely clean and free of products. Eat a light breakfast unless told otherwise and arrive on time so you can relax before the procedure.

The exact number of grafts required for an eyebrow restoration varies widely from person to person. It depends on the current condition of your eyebrows, how thin or patchy they are, whether one or both brows require restoration and the density and shape you wish to achieve.

Mild or partial restoration may require 50–100 grafts per eyebrow, while fullreconstruction—such as after trauma, scarring or severe over-plucking—may require 150–300 grafts per eyebrow. Your facial proportions, natural brow pattern and donor-hair characteristics all influence final planning.

At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we assess these factors during your consultation and design a tailored plan to achieve a natural and balanced result. The number of grafts needed will be clearly explained before surgery.

Absolutely. Providing full and accurate information about your medical history is essential for safe and successful eyebrow restoration. Conditions such as thyroid imbalances, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, high blood pressure, bleeding disorders or skin sensitivities can influence how your body heals and how well transplanted follicles take root.

Medications are equally important. Blood thinners, anti-inflammatories, antidepressants, steroids and certain herbal supplements can affect bleeding, healing or anaesthetic response. Even minor allergies or past surgeries may influence the approach we take.

At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we create a personalised surgical plan tailored to your health profile. Transparency ensures your safety and helps us minimise risks during and after surgery. Always disclose everything—even over-the-counter supplements and occasional medications.

No. Before your eyebrow restoration procedure, you should avoid applying makeup (such as brow pencils, powders or gels), lotions, serums, oils or any chemical treatments near the eyebrows or forehead. These products can interfere with the sterilisation process, clog pores, irritate the skin or cause sensitivity around the transplant area.

Many cosmetic products contain ingredients that may cause inflammation or reactions when combined with surgical preparation solutions. Some can even increase the risk of bacterial contamination. To ensure the skin is clean, breathable and ready for surgery, we generally recommend avoiding these products for at least 24–48 hours before the procedure.

Your surgeon will give you exact pre-operative instructions, but arriving with a clean face and scalp ensures the safest environment for the procedure and enhances graft survival.

Yes. It is strongly recommended that you stop smoking and avoid alcohol for a period before your eyebrow transplant. Smoking restricts blood flow, reduces oxygenation of tissues and significantly slows healing, which can impact graft survival. Alcohol can thin the blood and increase bleeding during surgery. For these reasons, most patients are asked to stop smoking and avoid alcohol for at least several days to a week before the procedure.

Certain medications—especially blood thinners like aspirin, warfarin or anti-inflammatory drugs—may also interfere with the surgery and increase bleeding risk. Your surgeon will advise exactly what to avoid and how far in advance. Stopping or adjusting medications should only be done under medical supervision. Supplements such as vitamin E, ginkgo, garlic tablets and fish oil may also need to be paused.

Following these instructions helps ensure smoother surgery, reduced risk of complications and better graft retention.

During your consultation at Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we take the time to thoroughly understand your goals and expectations for eyebrow restoration. The process begins with a detailed discussion about the shape, density, style and symmetry you desire. We will examine your current eyebrow hair pattern, assess the degree of thinning or gaps and determine the underlying cause of your eyebrow loss.

Your surgeon will also carefully evaluate the donor area—typically the back of your scalp—to ensure sufficient hair follicles with suitable texture are available. Medical history, medications, allergies and past treatments are reviewed to ensure that surgery is safe for you.

Next, we design a customised eyebrow shape that complements your facial proportions. This includes assessing angles, curvature, thickness and natural asymmetry. Digital mock-ups or drawings may be used to help you visualise possible outcomes. Finally, you’ll receive information about the procedure, graft estimates, downtime, risks, aftercare and cost.

Determining whether you are a good candidate for eyebrow restoration surgery depends on several important factors. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we first assess the cause and extent of your eyebrow thinning or loss—whether it’s due to over-plucking, genetics, ageing, trauma, medical conditions or scarring. We then evaluate the availability and quality of donor hair (typically taken from the scalp), as well as your hair texture, direction and colour to ensure it will blend naturally with your existing eyebrow hair.

Your overall medical history is also critical. Conditions such as uncontrolled thyroid issues, autoimmune disorders, bleeding disorders or poorly managed diabetes may affect healing or graft success. We also assess whether you have realistic expectations regarding density, shape and growth patterns, since final results depend on healing and long-term hair cycles.

Most suitable candidates are healthy individuals with stable donor hair and clear aesthetic goals. During your consultation, we will provide a personalised analysis to confirm suitability and discuss the expected results based on your anatomy and needs.

After your procedure, our team will review your personalised aftercare plan. This includes guidelines on cleansing, moisturising, avoiding physical strain and protecting the eyebrow area. Some tiny scabs or redness will be visible initially—these are normal and temporary. You will also receive instructions for sleeping position, medications and follow-up visits.

Yes. In most cases, both eyebrows are restored during the same session. This ensures symmetrical design, consistent density and an even healing process. The only limiting factor is donor availability, which will be assessed during consultation.

No. Eyebrow transplantation is a day procedure and patients go home shortly after completion. You may be advised to have someone drive you home, especially if you feel tired or received medication to help you relax.

Mild swelling, redness or tenderness is normal for the first 1–3 days. Because the eyebrow region is close to the eyes, some patients may notice slight puffiness or tightness. This usually improves quickly with cold compresses and aftercare instructions. Most discomfort is mild and short-lived.

Eyebrow restoration is considered a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure. Because the incisions are very small, the risk of infection is low when proper sterile protocols are followed. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we maintain strict hygiene and use sterilised or single-use instruments to minimise any risk. Mild swelling, redness or temporary irritation are the most common side effects and serious complications are rare.

During surgery, each follicle is placed with meticulous attention to its angle, depth and direction. Eyebrow hair grows at unique, flat angles that vary across different sections of the brow. Your surgeon carefully designs the pattern to replicate natural orientation—downward strokes near the tail, upward strokes near the inner brow and horizontal flow in the middle. This precision ensures the final result appears soft, natural and realistic.

The duration of an eyebrow transplant depends on the number of grafts and the complexity of your design. On average, most procedures take around 3–5 hours. This includes preparation, donor hair extraction, precise implantation and breaks if needed. More detailed or dense eyebrow designs may take slightly longer. You will be able to relax comfortably throughout the session.

Eyebrow restoration is performed under local anaesthesia, meaning the transplant areas are fully numbed. Most patients only feel slight pressure or mild stinging during the initial anaesthetic injections. Once numbness is achieved, the procedure itself is typically pain-free. Many patients relax comfortably, listen to music or even fall asleep.

Because eyebrow hair transplantation is a shallow, minimally invasive procedure, discomfort is minimal. After the procedure, you may feel mild tightness, tenderness or sensitivity around the eyebrows and donor area. These symptoms are temporary and manageable with recommended aftercare or mild pain relief.

Yes. It is completely normal for transplanted eyebrow hairs to shed within the first few weeks. This shedding is a natural part of the hair growth cycle called shock loss and does not indicate failure of the grafts. After the resting phase, new hairs typically begin to grow and the brow gradually fills in. Your surgeon will explain what to expect during each stage of healing.

In some cases, a second session may be recommended to enhance density, refine shape or adjust balance between the two eyebrows. Factors such as healing, graft survival, donor availability and personal expectations all influence whether additional work is needed. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we aim for precision and high satisfaction in the first session, but we will openly discuss your options if further enhancement is desired.

Yes. Follow-up appointments allow us to monitor healing, track growth progress and address any questions you may have. Typically, check-ups occur within the first week, at three months and at six months, although the schedule may vary. These visits help ensure optimal results.

Yes. Because the donor hairs are taken from the permanent zone of the scalp, they are genetically resistant to thinning and are expected to provide long-lasting results. While occasional touch-up procedures can enhance density or refine shape, the main restoration is designed to be permanent.

Yes. When placed correctly, transplanted follicles grow in a natural direction and blend seamlessly with your existing eyebrow hair. The design, angles and density created during surgery play a major role in achieving a realistic appearance. As the hairs mature, they soften, become finer and look increasingly natural.

Strenuous workouts should be avoided for at least one week, as increased blood pressure and sweating can irritate the healing eyebrows or dislodge grafts. Light walking is fine after a day or two, but exercises like running, weight training, swimming or sports should be paused until cleared by your surgeon.

Yes. Mild redness, swelling and small crusts around each implanted follicle are very normal. These typically last 3–7 days depending on your skin sensitivity and healing rate. Avoid picking or scratching the crusts, as doing so may disturb the grafts. The donor area may also show slight redness or tiny dots, which fade quickly.

Aftercare is crucial for protecting the delicate grafts. For the first week, avoid touching, rubbing, scratching or applying pressure to the eyebrows. Follow the clinic’s cleaning instructions carefully, which may include gentle misting or dabbing with saline. Avoid sweating, sun exposure, swimming pools, saunas and makeup in the area. Sleeping with your head elevated also reduces swelling. After the first week, you can gradually resume normal activities, but avoid any harsh treatments or trauma to the area.

Yes. Because the transplanted follicles come from your scalp, they retain scalp-like growth characteristics. This means the new eyebrow hairs may grow longer and faster than natural eyebrow hair. Regular trimming—perhaps every couple of weeks—is usually needed to maintain a neat and natural eyebrow shape. Over time, some hairs may slightly adapt to the new location.

New eyebrow hair usually begins to grow within 8–12 weeks. Early growth may appear fine, soft or uneven. Over the next several months, the hair thickens, matures and begins to take on its permanent appearance. Full results typically become visible between 6–9 months, although some patients continue to see improvement up to a year.
