uGraft Eyelash Transplant For Restoring Natural Looking Lashes : Many women want long, lustrous eyelashes full of volume and are constantly seeking ways to enhance them. While traditional methods such as mascara and Latisse can provide temporary solutions with little harm to eyelashes, other methods such as eyelash extensions can harm eyelashes and make them fall out. Dr. Sanusi Umar’s uGraft eyelash transplant, however, provides permanent, natural results.

A main complaint among women with non-surgical eyelash enhancements is that they must be applied daily or on a semi-regular basis. Constantly applying fake eyelashes or getting extensions may also cause eyelash hairs to fall out. Latisse — a nightly solution applied to upper eyelids — can cause eyelid discoloration at the application site.

However, uGraft eyelash transplant procedures now create radiant, long eyelashes with a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that requires little downtime. It’s a safe, effective way to restore living and growing lashes to your eyelid. The uGraft technique, also known as the Umar Procedure, is an advanced form of Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). The technique extracts and harvest individual follicular units with 0.8 to 1.2 millimeter punches.

UGRAFT EYELASH TRANSPLANT EXPLAINED

Follicles are extracted from the nape area on the back of the neck. A uGraft eyelash hair transplant typically requires approximately 30 to 40 hair follicles to achieve the desired density and length of eyelashes. Grafts are then inserted through tiny slits into the lash line. Pain management includes local anesthetics and possible sedatives to help achieve a more relaxed state for the patient.

Transplanted nape hair continues to grow after a uGraft eyelash transplant at the lash line. Patients need to occasionally trim eyelashes following the procedure to create the desired length since hair follicles maintain their original nature with length and volume. Patients also need to use an eyelash curler to achieve the natural curve of eyelashes with the transplanted lashes.
