Eyebrow Hair Transplant- Best Doctors, Hospitals & Cost of Treatment in India

Treatment overview

An eyebrow hair transplant is a cosmetic microsurgical procedure that restores natural, permanently growing hair to thin, patchy, or missing eyebrows. Individual hair follicles are harvested — most often from the back of the scalp — and placed one by one into the eyebrow area at precise angles and directions to mimic the natural growth pattern of brow hair. It is suitable for people whose eyebrows have thinned or disappeared due to over-plucking, scarring, medical conditions such as thyroid disease or alopecia areata, or simply genetics. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia as a day-care case, and both eyebrows are typically treated in a single session. Transplanted hairs grow permanently but require regular trimming, as scalp-derived hair continues to grow at scalp speed; the final result is usually fully visible at nine to twelve months.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$100 – $200

Typical tests for this treatment: CBC (Complete Blood Count), Blood glucose (fasting or random), PT/INR (clotting profile), Scalp and donor area clinical assessment, Thyroid function test (TSH) — if hair loss is suspected to be thyroid-related. Done in India before hospital admission. Cost varies with case complexity.
