A Closer Look At Eyebrow Hair Transplants

Written by admin on March 4, 2009

Hair transplant surgery is an extremely labor intensive and meticulous form
of cosmetic surgery. A bad hair transplant is visible from a mile away, and
unfortunately there are still many less than optimal results being produced
on a daily basis by under-trained and/or unskilled hair transplant practitioners.

One hair restoration procedure that can be especially challenging is eyebrow transplantation. Various medical conditions can result in eyebrow loss, but probably the most common cause is self-induced. Women who pluck their eyebrows run the significant risk of permanently damaging the hair follicles that are repeatedly plucked, thus causing permanent brow loss. Other causes of eyebrow loss include chemotherapy, trauma from accidents and burn injuries.

Eyebrows are very important to a person’s appearance since they essentially frame, and give symmetry to the face. Loss of eyebrow hair can have a profound effect on a person’s self confidence and general well being. While eyebrow reconstruction technology had been reported as far back as the early nineteenth century, it has taken the evolution of conventional hair transplant surgery to take eyebrow reconstruction to the level the we see today.

If you are considering eyebrow reconstruction, it’s important to note that all doctors are not created equal when it comes to this extremely precise and artistic procedure.

An unnatural appearing eyebrow transplant can wreak havoc on a persons appearance so do your homework and learn what to look for when choosing a hair transplant surgeon to perform this procedure.
