What is Eyelash Transplant?
DHI Eyelash Transplant gives you fuller, curved lashes that last for life. Fine hair follicles are extracted from the nape with Micro FUE using 0.5 mm needles, then implanted one at a time into the upper lash line with microscope-guided DHI Choi pens, angled to curve forward. This keeps trauma and visible scarring minimal, and the lashes look natural even up close.
Who it helps
Eyelash transplants help when lashes are sparse from genetics, trauma, chemotherapy or trichotillomania. They also suit people who want fuller lashes without daily mascara or extensions.
Why DHI for eyelashes
- Each lash is placed by hand under a microscope so it curves forward at 5-10° from the lid margin.
- New lashes are added between your existing ones without damaging them.
- Swelling is mild, and most people return to normal activities within 5 to 7 days.
- Grafts are separated under a microscope so each one follows the growth direction and curl of a lash.
Important Details
Because transplanted lashes continue growing like scalp hair, they need periodic trimming and gentle curling after healing.
Answer first
What to know before an eyelash transplant
An eyelash transplant moves fine hairs from the nape into the upper lash line. Each lash is placed by hand under a microscope, angled to curve forward. Swelling usually settles in 5 to 7 days, and you should avoid eye makeup for 3 weeks. The fuller lash line develops over 4 to 6 months. The new lashes grow like scalp hair, so they need trimming and gentle curling from then on.

Expert Answers
Will transplanted lashes keep growing?
Yes. They grow like the scalp hair they came from, faster than natural lashes, so they need occasional trimming and gentle curling to keep a natural look.
Who is a good candidate for an eyelash transplant?
People with sparse lashes from genetics, trauma, chemotherapy or trichotillomania, and people who want fuller lashes without daily mascara or extensions.
How long is recovery after an eyelash transplant?
Swelling around the eyelid is mild and usually settles within 5 to 7 days. Avoid eye makeup for 3 weeks. The donor area at the nape heals normally, and most patients return to all their activities within a week.
When will I see the final result?
The transplanted lashes shed after 3 to 4 weeks, which is normal, and then regrow. The fuller lash line develops over 4 to 6 months.
How do I look after transplanted lashes?
Trim them regularly and curl them gently. With that care they look natural at conversational distance.
