Over-plucked brows that never recovered
Years of tweezing in the nineties and two-thousands permanently damaged follicles. Microblading covers it, but it is pigment: it fades and must be redone. A transplant uses your own hair, and it grows.
Istanbul
An eyebrow transplant should look like it grew there.
Eyebrows are all I do. That’s why I spend time designing your brow before it’s transplanted, not after.

Before you go further
Not everyone should have this procedure.
If your hair loss is still active, transplanting now risks wasting grafts on a brow that will keep thinning. If your expectations are for a shape your facial structure will not carry, I will say so at consultation rather than after. I would rather turn a patient away than perform a procedure that will disappoint them.
Read the candidacy criteriaHow I work
Three things that decide the result.
- 01
Design comes first
Before anything is placed, I draw and measure your brow against your own facial proportions — your bone structure, your eye position, how your face moves. You see it, you adjust it, you approve it. Nothing begins until you do.
- 02
Every graft has an angle
Brow hair grows almost flat against the skin, and the direction changes across the brow. A graft placed at the wrong angle will grow upwards and always look transplanted. This is slow, deliberate work, and it is the difference between a brow that looks natural and one that does not.
- 03
One procedure, not a catalogue
I do not perform scalp transplants, beard transplants, or offer a menu of aesthetic procedures. Eyebrows are my entire practice. That focus is why I take fewer patients — and why I can honestly tell you when you are not one of them.

Most asked
Four questions, answered briefly.
- How long does it take?
- Procedure day is a single session. Its length depends on the graft count and is confirmed for you at the consultation.
- Does it hurt?
- It is done under local anaesthetic. You are awake and comfortable throughout; tenderness in the first days is part of healing.
- How is the fee set?
- The fee follows the number of grafts the design calls for and is confirmed to you in writing. The pre-assessment is free.
- When do I see the result?
- Many transplanted hairs shed in the first weeks — an expected stage. The brow grows back over months and is judged once it has settled.
What happens
From first message to grown-in result.
- 01
First conversation
You send the consultation form. I ask what you have already tried, what happened to your brows, and what you actually want to achieve.
Same day, in most cases - 02
Assessment
I assess your donor area, your existing brow density and whether any underlying cause needs to be addressed first. Some people are told to wait. Some are told no.
Video or in person - 03
Design session
On the day, I map your brow shape to your facial proportions, and we agree on it together. Nothing is placed until you have approved the drawing.
Procedure day, before anything begins - 04
The procedure
Local anaesthetic is used. You remain awake and comfortable throughout. Grafts are extracted and placed individually, each one angled to match your natural brow growth.
Duration is confirmed at your consultation - 05
Recovery
Swelling, redness and crusting are part of the early healing, and how long they last differs from one person to the next. Many transplanted hair shafts shed before they regrow; this expected shedding does not, by itself, indicate graft failure. I go through the recovery timeline with you at your consultation, against your own case rather than an average.
Healing time differs from person to person - 06
Follow-up
I follow up at set intervals, including after you have flown home. The result is judged once the brow has grown in, not while it is still healing.

At work
Design before transplant
Calipers, ruler and pencil come out before every transplant. These frames are from a single procedure day: measuring, drawing, placing.
From the clinic
From the design table and the day itself.
Photographs we published on our Instagram account: the design being drawn, the treatment room, and faces from the day. Scroll sideways to see them.
Who I see
Most of my patients arrive after years of maintenance.
Thinning from a medical cause
Alopecia areata, thyroid conditions, chemotherapy, trichotillomania, burns or surgical scarring. This is restoration, not enhancement, and I treat it as such. Some causes must be stable before a transplant is appropriate.
Naturally sparse brows
Some people simply never had density there. If your donor hair is suitable, this is one of the most straightforward cases I see.
Coming from abroad
You are choosing a person, not a package.
Most of my international patients have already decided to travel. What they want to know is who is actually holding the instrument, whether the facility is real, and what happens once they are home again. All three are answerable, and I answer them before you book a flight.
- A video consultation before you commit to anything
- Written confirmation of what is included and what is not
- Documented credentials and facility information you can verify
- Structured follow-up after you return home
Frequently asked
All questionsWhat people want to know before deciding.
What actually happens during an eyebrow transplant?
Grafts are taken one at a time from an area where the hair most resembles brow hair, and placed one at a time into a shape we have drawn and agreed before anything begins. Brow hair lies almost flat against the skin, so the angle of each graft matters more than the count.
Does it hurt?
Local anaesthetic is used and you are awake throughout. Most people report pressure and sound rather than pain, and find the anaesthetic itself the least pleasant part. There is usually some soreness afterwards. I will not tell you that you will feel nothing.
Is the result permanent?
A transplanted follicle is your own hair, and it grows. It is generally retained, but I do not describe any result as permanent: the hair ages with you, and if the cause of your original loss is still active it can continue to affect the area. What I can say is that it is yours and it grows.
When will I look normal in public again?
Swelling, redness and crusting are most obvious in the first days and then settle. When you feel ready to be seen is personal, so I would not plan anything that matters for immediately afterwards. The full timeline, given as approximate ranges, is on the recovery page.
The transplanted hairs are falling out. Is that normal?
Yes, and it is what I am asked in a panic more than anything else. Most transplanted hairs shed in the first weeks. What sheds is the hair shaft; the follicle stays under the skin, rests, and then regrows. On its own it does not mean a graft has failed.
Where does the donor hair come from, and will I have to trim it?
Usually from the back of the head, where I can select the fine single hairs that most closely match brow hair. That hair keeps its own habits: it may grow faster and longer than brow hair, so it needs regular trimming. Most people get used to that quickly.

A consultation costs you nothing and commits you to nothing. If you are not a candidate, I will tell you at that point — and I will tell you why.
