EYELASH/EYEBROW TRANSPLANTS
DR. BAUMAN,DUE TO WEARING FALSE EYELASHES FOR MANY YEARS I HAVE LOST ALL MY LASHES AND THEY HAVE NEVER GROWN BACK. I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO HAVE THIS DONE ASAP.I AM ON COUMADIN DUE TO DX OF ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA,HAVE HAD NO MEDICAL PROBLEMS FOR 12 YEARS NOW. CAN YOU STILL DO THIS AND ONCE ITS DONE WILL I WALK OUT WITH BEAUTIFUL LASHES OR WILL THEY FALL OUT. I DONT WANT TO BE WITHOUT.I KNOW THE HEALING PROCESS IS A COUPLE OF WEEKS, BUT WILL I HAVE LASHES AND THERAFTER WILL I GET FULLER ONES. WHY DO YOU ONLY PUT 20-30 THAT SEEMS SO FEW. NORMALLY DONT WE HAVE ABOUT 60-80? WHERE IS YOUR OFFICE AND IS THERE ANY IN TEXAS? THANKS
Sandra,
Thank you for inquiring about the eyelash transplant procedures I perform routinely.
You don't walk out of the office with lashes. The procedure permanently implants follicles into the lid. Typically 20-30 eyelashes/lid are enough to make a significant change in your look. If you have total loss of lashes, you might need an additional eyelash transplant procedure to finish the job. Typically, it takes just a few days to completely heal from the procedure. Significant swelling or bruising is very rare with the technique I use. After a few days, you can resume using eye makeup. Ususally, the transplanted lashes are temporarily shed and begin to regrow after six weeks or so. It can take 6-12 months to appreciate the final result. Remember that you will have to trim the transplanted lashes on a regular basis. My office is located in Boca Raton, Florida. Local hotel accommodations are included with my professional fee.
