Eyelash Treatment necessity
Eyelash treatment help restore eyelashes that are not only a crucial element to an attractive appearance but are also necessary for the protection of our eyes. Eyelashes define the eyes and add to the attractiveness of the face. When you blink or close your eyes, your eyelashes form a beautiful crescent that rests on the lower lid. But on a more practical note, eyelashes keep out dust and dirt. When a gnat flies towards you and you blink, the reflex shuts your eyes while the lashes create a line of defense before the lids. 
Eyelash Implants Surgery Procedure During eyelash transplant surgery the cornea is protected and a topical anesthetic is used on the eyes. The grafts for eyelashes are stripped away from surrounding donor skin, often leaving only the follicle and the hair to be inserted. Additional grafts may be required to fully fill the lashes. After an eyelash transplant, patients may sleep in glasses or with a patch over the eyes the first night, and may carefully wash their faces in a day or two. Transplanted lashes and eyebrows often grow right away, unlike other hair, which can take some months. Like other hair moved from the head to the face, eyelashes will grow much longer than normally. They will need to be trimmed once or twice a month, and to train them upwards, we recommend an eyelash curler.

Eyelash Implants or Transplants Consultation
With eyelash transplants, as in any hair restoration, a consultation with Dr. Prasad will be the first step. The focus of the consultation will be to determine the cause of eyelash loss before any surgical plans for eyelash transplants are made. It's important to know whether eyebrows have been lost from medical conditions that need to be addressed separately – such as hypothyroidism, or psychiatric illness – such as trichotillomania, where patients pull out their own hair. Medical conditions will first need to be evaluated and treated. While it's possible to transplant lower lashes, there is a risk of a condition called trichiasis in which eyelashes turn inwards. When this occurs naturally, patients have to undergo surgery or the lashes irritate the eye and cause infection and eventual blindness. Patients who wish to have their lower eyelashes restored through eyelash transplants are counseled about the greater risk and the need for caution.
