Objective:
To explore the aesthetic result of dense-packing single-hair grafting for eyelash.
Methods:
Twenty-six female cases were treated with the donor sites at the occipital safe area. The single-hair grafts were made with the hair of 4cm in length. The grafts were transplanted to the upper lid margin with needle technique, 30-40 grafts at each side.
Results:
The hair grafts survived very well with good growth direction. It looked even better when it had a permanent wave or the mascara was applied. The survival rate of hair grafts was more than 95%.
Conclusions:
It is feasible to improve the shorter and thinner eyelash by dense-packing single-hair grafts.
