Eyebrow Hair Transplant
The eyebrows not only frame the face, they are a key factor in communicating emotion. They are a major element of a person’s “look” and style. Eyebrow hair loss, like other types of hair loss or hair thinning, can be a major blow to a person’s self image as well. This is where Reef Hair can help.
What Causes Eyebrow Thinning?
In most cases, age is the culprit. Both men and women can start to experience it around the age of 40 due to the reduction of testosterone (in men) and estrogen (in women).
Of course, there can be other causes, ranging from skin conditions to the side effects of medications, that can also cause such thinning. Thyroid problems can also cause eyebrow thinning.
How Does An Eyebrow Transplant Compare to Microblading?
When it comes to eyebrow transplant vs microblading you’re comparing the addition of pigmentation to the transplantation of real hair into the affected area. Of the two, the latter offers a more natural look.
How Many Grafts Do You Need for Eyebrow Restoration?
The amount will vary depending on the desired result. The average is in the 70-120 range.
Thickness and shape of the result dictate the total number of grafts needed. In most cases, a single session should be more than sufficient. In more extreme cases, such as when eyebrow hairs have been entirely lost, tattoo work done in the area, scarring, etc. more will likely be needed.
Do You Have to Shave Eyebrows Before Transplant?
No, you do not. The follicular unit extraction (FUE) approach we use does not require you to shave your eyebrows before an eyebrow transplant.
Are Eyebrow Hair Transplants Permanent?
Eyebrow transplants create permanent results. That said, an eyebrow hair transplant is a medical procedure, so there is always the very slim possibility it wouldn’t take. Typically, they can last for decades, with only some cases requiring future touch-ups.red.
