The durability of grafted eyelashes can vary based on multiple factors, generally ranging from 1 to 3 months. Here is a detailed analysis:
Quality of Implanted Follicles
If high-quality, healthy hair follicles are selected for eyelash grafting, and they adapt well to the new environment after transplantation, they are more likely to survive and grow stably, potentially prolonging the duration of the grafted eyelashes.
In contrast, if the follicles are damaged during the extraction process or have poor vitality, their survival rate may be reduced, resulting in a shorter retention time.
Surgical Technique
A skilled surgeon with rich experience can accurately implant the hair follicles into the appropriate position and depth, ensuring good blood supply and nutrition for the follicles, which is conducive to their long-term growth.
Inexperienced surgeons may cause damage to the follicles or surrounding tissues during the operation, affecting the survival and growth of the grafted eyelashes, thus shortening their durability.
Postoperative Care
Keeping the eye area clean and avoiding rubbing or pulling the eyelashes is crucial. Patients who follow the doctor's advice, use medications and eye care products correctly, and avoid exposure to adverse environments usually have better retention of grafted eyelashes.
On the contrary, if the postoperative care is poor, such as frequent contact with water, using irritating cosmetics, or scratching the eyes, it may lead to infection, inflammation, and affect the survival of the grafted eyelashes, reducing their durability.
Individual Physiological Factors
Everyone's physical condition and metabolism are different. Some people have a strong metabolism and good blood circulation, which is beneficial to the growth and fixation of the implanted hair follicles, so the grafted eyelashes can last longer.
People with poor physical condition, weak immune function, or certain underlying diseases may have a weaker ability to repair and nourish the transplanted follicles, resulting in a shorter duration of the grafted eyelashes.
