Eyebrows frame your face and are a prominent element of both non-verbal communication and your visual aspect. This means that eyebrow hair loss can have an outsized impact on a person’s self-esteem.
Fortunately, there are eyebrow hair transplant options that offer the most permanent solution currently available for eyebrow hair loss. Hair follicles are transplanted from your head to your eyebrows.
What Causes Eyebrow Thinning?
Age is the number one culprit, natural declines in the amount of testosterone (in men) and estrogen (in women) begin to occur for most people in their 40s. Both of these hormones affect the hair growth cycle. There are many other factors that can contribute to the problem, including:
· Skin conditions
· Thyroid conditions
· Nutritional deficiencies
· Medications
· Autoimmune disorders
How Many Grafts Do You Need for Eyebrow Restoration?
The exact number of grafts will vary, based on a number of factors – primarily the size and shape of the eyebrows and the precise outcome desired. After diagnosis and assessment, our team will be able to design your treatment plan, including the number of sessions and grafts required.
Do You Have to Shave Eyebrows Before Transplant?
No, you do not have to shave your eyebrows beforehand. That is a persistent urban myth. A small patch of scalp used as the donor area is the only thing that needs to be shaved.
Are Eyebrow Hair Transplants Permanent?
Eyebrow restoration via transplants represents a viable long-term solution to eyebrow hair loss. Most cases see results that last for years. In some cases, the results can even last for a lifetime.
Eyebrow Transplant vs Microblading
Both are cosmetic procedures implemented to make your eyebrows fuller or to obscure hair loss in the eyebrows. Microblading is a semi-permanent type of cosmetic tattoo that can last for a few years. An eyebrow transplant, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure in which
hair is harvested from a donor area on your scalp and transplanted to your eyebrows.
