Eyebrow Transplantation
Why do an eyebrow transplant? Why are eyebrows so important?
Eyebrows are an essential part of the face because they contribute to its symmetry and beauty. Natural looking brows soften the other facial features. They impact expression and personality and help people communicate their thoughts and feelings to others.
It has been said, "the eyes are the windows to a person's soul." That is why people look a person in the eye as they talk with one another. Maybe they will get a glimpse of their soul, or what is really on their mind. And so it is said, "the eyebrows and the eyelashes are the window dressings to the eyes." Thus eyebrows and eyelashes gives the eye an attraction. They help give the eye beauty and enhance the face.
The current fashion dictates what eyebrow look is in or out. Actresses, models, and celebrities seem to inspire a certain look, making certain eyebrow shapes and sizes popular. Julia Roberts inspired the round, thick width, low arch eyebrow look. Jennifer Lopez inspired the soft angled, medium width, high arch look. Britney Spears inspired the soft angled, medium width, low arch brow. Cindy Crawford inspired the soft angled, thick width, low arch brow look. The inspirations go on and on.
Eyebrow hair loss has many causes that require restoration:
* Excessive plucking and tweezers use by women trying to reshape the brow
* Burns, radiation therapy, chemotherapy
* Trichotillomania - obsessive compulsive self-inflicted plucking
* Inheritance factors - relatives have same eyebrow hair loss
* Local or systemic disease
* Physical trauma - a scar needs to be camouflaged
* Men and women's eyebrows can lose their shape and density with age, needing a hair transplant that gives them a more youthful look around their eyes.
Some people will be dissatisfied with the eyebrows they have and desire cosmetic enhancement. They may have thinning or the hair is too fine and somewhat transparent. Loss of eyebrow hair can make a person self-conscious or lower his/her self-esteem. It is amazing how a hair restoration procedure can restore one's look and self-confidence.
How is it all done and what should the patient expect?
Eyebrow transplantation can restore living and growing hair back to the eyebrow area. Using an oral sedative and local anesthesia, the procedure is comfortable, without pain, done in 3-4 hours in the office/out-patient setting. Part of this time is taken up waiting for the technician with the aid of a microscope and jeweler's forceps to dissect out the individual hair follicles preparing them for implantation. While the patient is waiting, DVD movies at times are played for the patient.Hair follicles (100-350 per brow) from the back of the scalp (donor area) are harvested and then implanted into the eyebrows in groups of 1s and sometimes 2s. Stitches are used to close the donor area, which are undetectable and must be removed in 7-10 days.
The implanted follicles (like seeds of a plant) will grow and produce hair permanently. The newly growing eyebrow hair will possess the same characteristics as scalp hair. The eyebrows will need to be routinely trimmed every 2 weeks and require brow grooming and hair training gel. - There will probably be some hairs that won't lie flat enough or point in the wrong direction. It is recommended that makeup be kept to an absolute minimum during the immediate post-op healing period (4-5 days).
Some patients may require an additional session of eyebrow transplantation to refine or otherwise enhance their eyebrow. The transplanted eyebrow hair will typically begin to grow in 6-12 weeks, with a full cosmetic result reached in approximately ten months. It is required that the patient have transportation to and from the office so that adequate anesthesia can be given.
Eyebrow transplantation and permanent makeup.
Many patients choose a combination of permanent makeup (tattooing) and eyebrow transplantation to achieve a more defined eyebrow appearance. Eyebrow transplantation provides a natural, three-dimensional appearance to eyebrows created with permanent makeup.

Eyebrow Hair Loss - What to Do About Your Thinning Eyebrows
Eyebrow hair loss is a very real problem. It is often caused by the things you did to your eyebrows when you were younger. Shaping the eyebrows has always been popular. Plucking them or waxing the eyebrows causes the hair to eventually quit growing back. The ending result is either very little eyebrow hair or none.
What Causes Eyebrow Hair Loss?
This can be seen in older women, who have been plucking or waxing their eyebrows all their life. Constantly plucking the eyebrows damages the hair follicles. After a certain period of time, the eyebrows just do not come back. This can result in a problem for women who are particularly vigilant about doing this when they are younger.
The eyebrow hair loss can be minimized by only occasionally plucking. Leave most of them natural and only go after stray hairs here and here. In some cases, it is too late and you are already experiencing the loss of eyebrow hair from too many years of waxing or plucking. When this happens, there are few alternatives.
Using an Eyebrow Pencil
The eyebrows can be penciled in if you do it lightly. The natural color should be used and they should not be heavily drawn. The overdoing of eyebrows will end up looking garish.
This is one of the mistakes women make when using an eyebrow pencil. If you consider why you were plucking or waxing your eyebrows in the first place, does it make sense to draw them back heavily? They should be very lightly penciled in to match any remaining eyebrow hair.
Following the natural line of the eyebrows is another aspect when you fill in the eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil. Too high on the brow line makes you look as if you are in a perpetual questioning mode. Too low will make you look like you are really having a bad day.
Sometimes eyebrow hair loss is due to certain hair loss problems. There are some problems that cause hair loss over the whole body. If this is the reason for your hair loss, it may only be temporary. However, the fact remains that you have to have eyebrows right now. So the only solution is to use an eyebrow pencil to draw in your eyebrows.
Options
There are of course, options for the loss of eyebrow hair. Transplants are one of the solutions. This is an expensive procedure. The transplant can start at $4000 and go on up to $20,000 or more.
Another option is an eyebrow replacement. These are eyebrows made of actual hair that are placed on the brow line with an adhesive. They are natural looking and are a solution for those who do not want to draw their eyebrows on or have them tattooed.
Regardless of why you have eyebrow hair loss, there are solutions. The one you choose will be the best one for you. If you decide on eyebrow replacement, there are very good choices to match them to your hair color. If transplants are your choice, just be aware of the expense related to this procedure. If you just want to use an eyebrow pencil, remember to make them look natural.

Eyebrow Transplants - The New Way To Get Thick Eyebrows
What are eyebrow transplants? Eyebrow transplants, also known as eyebrow implants, are a term used to describe the insertion of hair from various parts of the body into the eyebrow.
Why, you may ask, would a person want to have eyebrow transplants?
The answer is simple. Everybody wants to look normal, or as near normal as possible. It is a sad fact of life that nobody is born perfect. There are unfortunate people who, through no fault of their own, have been born with eyebrows which are so sparse that you can barely notice any eyebrows. Others are born with very thin eyebrows or eyebrow hairs which are so lightly pigmented that they do not seem to have eyebrows at all. There are yet others who have lost all or part of their eyebrows due to accident or disease, and desire to look normal. There will also be times when people want to stand out among their friends, and want to look better than normal by having thicker and better looking eyebrows.
Certain film stars like Brooke Shields who look especially good by virtue of their naturally attractive thick eyebrows have spawned a desire among ladies to get thick eyebrows as well, in the hope of looking more attractive to others.
How would one correct the obvious disadvantages of possessing imperfect eyebrows?
Before newer techniques came on the scene, about the only way to get thick eyebrows was to pencil them in using tools such as eyebrow liners. The obvious advantage of this was the ability to change the style, slant and colour of the thick eyebrows, depending on the mood of the day. The disadvantage was, of course, that painted-on eyebrows did not look too natural, were temporary and troublesome to apply, and were nice and attractive only when viewed from a distance.
A more permanent way was to tattoo the eyebrows so that one could save oneself the trouble of having to spend hours trying to paint on sexy thick eyebrows which looked symmetrical and did not get smudged in the middle of your date. The disadvantage of this tattooing was again that the results were better-looking when view from a distance, and that close-up views of the tattooed eyebrows were not attractive, and tattooing was permanent. If you wanted to change your style, or suddenly decided that what you had was not what you really wanted, it was tough luck, mate - it was next to impossible to remove tattoo marks.
The slightly less permanent eyebrow embroidery was a bit better in the sense that the more superficial tattoos created in this procedure to get seemingly thick eyebrows would tend to fade off after a few years, so you could change your styles if you wanted, but then only after a few years.
Enter the eyebrow transplants. This procedure has been hailed as one of the better inventions to help people look more attractive with better and thicker eyebrows that were completely natural. Eyebrow transplants essentially involve the removal of hairs from elsewhere in the body and implanting them onto the eyebrow region, creating a new and better looking set of eyebrows. While the person with a hair transplant on the scalp is happy so long as his bald patch is covered, the person with the eyebrow transplant has her results showing on her face all the time, whenever she faces anybody. You just cannot hide your eyebrows! It is thus imperative that you choose your plastic surgeon well, and get a good aesthetic result from your eyebrow transplant.
The procedure of eyebrow transplant, while looking simple in theory, is technically a difficult, tedious and backbreaking procedure that takes hours to carry out. Thus you may not find all plastic surgeons willing to do this procedure.
In an eyebrow transplant procedure, a strip of coarse hair is harvested from the back of the scalp (for men's eyebrows), or above the ears (for women's eyebrows) under local anesthesia. The hairs are teased out individually and inserted into small cuts made on the carefully marked out recipient eyebrow transplant area. The angle of insertion as well as the orientation of the transplanted hair follicle to the surface of the skin and the face are extremely crucial to the aesthetics and success of the eyebrow transplant procedure.
Careful post-operative care is needed to ensure the viability of the eyebrow transplant. With good care, a person can expect to have beautifully shaped new and natural thick eyebrows within about 2 months.

The Most Suitable Eyebrow Shapes For the Face
Eyebrows are an important feature of the face because they give the face its shape and frame the facial features of eyes, nose, cheeks, mouth and chin. The eyebrows are one of the few facial features that can be shaped to enhance the beauty of the face.
To achieve the most flattering effect it is important to consider both face shape and eye types. The perfect eyebrow shape is closely related to the actual shape of the face. The basic eyebrow shape is also determined on the bone structure of the face. Below are descriptions and illustrations of eyebrow shapes which are most appropriate for different shaped faces.
Oval - A perfectly balanced face shape
Round - Well-rounded full cheek and chin area; face length is relatively short
Oblong - Longer than wide; face has same width across the forehead, jaw line, and cheekbone
Square - Width of the cheeks and forehead are similar; width of the jaw line and forehead being alike as well
Heart - Fuller and wider at the forehead tapering down to the cheeks then down to a pointed chin
Diamond - Widest at the cheekbones and equally narrow at the forehead and jaw line
Discover the Shape of the Face
OVAL Face Shape
The oval frame is considered to be the perfectly balanced face; the top half balances the bottom half. The oval face is characterized by being slightly wider at the cheekbones than the forehead or jaw-line. It also appears slightly wider at the cheek-line and tapers slightly to the chin.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for an Oval Face
Oval face shapes can get away with just about any eyebrow shape. Oval is the ideal face shape and any natural shape of the eyebrow works well with an oval face. Oval is the perfect model frame.
ROUND Face Shape
The round frame has a large-curved forehead with a rounded chin, thus making the face look full with very few angles. The cheekbones are undoubtedly wider than the eyebrow bone and jaw line. When measuring a round face there is little difference between the width of the face and the vertical measurement. The face is almost as wide as it is long.
Objective Proportion - Create more definition. Flatter your round frame by creating an oval appearance that will lift the facial features and lengthen the face shape to give an image of a thinner look.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Round Face
Apply an eyebrow line that goes up the face by arching the eyebrow high and leaving the tapering part small. The center of the arch should move out towards the end of the eyebrow while the end should be short. A high arched eyebrow shape will draw attention away from the width of the face.
OBLONG Face Shape
The oblong frame is longer than it is wide and close to the same width across the forehead, jaw line and cheekbone. The oblong shape may have a very narrow chin or a very high forehead. Having a prominent chin also characterizes an elongated appearance.
Objective Proportion -Have the oblong face appear shorter and broader.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for an Oblong Face
To make a long face appear oval one should apply horizontal lines to the face. Apply an eyebrow line that is flat and keep the arch low; this stops the eye from going up the face. A flat eyebrow opens the eyes horizontally to give the appearance of an oval face. This eyebrow shape will draw the eye from side to side and stop it from going up and down.
SQUARE Face Shape
The square frame has a broad forehead and jaw line and tends to have sharper angles in the corners of the face. The width of your cheeks and forehead will be similar. The width of your jaw line and forehead may also be similar, thus giving an angular overall appearance with the rectangular face being longer than it is wide.
Objective Proportion - Create an illusion of length. Soften the angles giving the illusion that both the forehead and jaw line appear narrower.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Square Face
A thick eyebrow is best suited for a square frame face with a strong jaw line. The peak of the eyebrow is most effective when positioned exactly above the square of the jaw. This eyebrow shape will balance out the square appearance of the face and soften the facial contours.
HEART Face Shape
The heart frame is fuller and wider at the forehead tapering down to the cheeks, then down to a narrow and pointed chin. The jaw line on this facial shape is not usually prominent. This facial frame has a narrow chin that leads up to a broad forehead and the cheekbones are very visible.
Objective Proportion - Create an illusion of a narrower forehead and fuller jaw line. Diminish the width at the forehead and create a wider, fuller jaw effect of the face.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Heart Face
Rounding the eyebrows with softer peaks is best suited for a heart shape face. A rounded shape helps by adding curves to soften the face plus emphasizes the lovely heart shape.
DIAMOND Face Shape

Discover the Shape of the Face
OVAL Face Shape
The oval frame is considered to be the perfectly balanced face; the top half balances the bottom half. The oval face is characterized by being slightly wider at the cheekbones than the forehead or jaw-line. It also appears slightly wider at the cheek-line and tapers slightly to the chin.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for an Oval Face
Oval face shapes can get away with just about any eyebrow shape. Oval is the ideal face shape and any natural shape of the eyebrow works well with an oval face. Oval is the perfect model frame.
ROUND Face Shape
The round frame has a large-curved forehead with a rounded chin, thus making the face look full with very few angles. The cheekbones are undoubtedly wider than the eyebrow bone and jaw line. When measuring a round face there is little difference between the width of the face and the vertical measurement. The face is almost as wide as it is long.
Objective Proportion - Create more definition. Flatter your round frame by creating an oval appearance that will lift the facial features and lengthen the face shape to give an image of a thinner look.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Round Face
Apply an eyebrow line that goes up the face by arching the eyebrow high and leaving the tapering part small. The center of the arch should move out towards the end of the eyebrow while the end should be short. A high arched eyebrow shape will draw attention away from the width of the face.
OBLONG Face Shape
The oblong frame is longer than it is wide and close to the same width across the forehead, jaw line and cheekbone. The oblong shape may have a very narrow chin or a very high forehead. Having a prominent chin also characterizes an elongated appearance.
Objective Proportion -Have the oblong face appear shorter and broader.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for an Oblong Face
To make a long face appear oval one should apply horizontal lines to the face. Apply an eyebrow line that is flat and keep the arch low; this stops the eye from going up the face. A flat eyebrow opens the eyes horizontally to give the appearance of an oval face. This eyebrow shape will draw the eye from side to side and stop it from going up and down.
SQUARE Face Shape
The square frame has a broad forehead and jaw line and tends to have sharper angles in the corners of the face. The width of your cheeks and forehead will be similar. The width of your jaw line and forehead may also be similar, thus giving an angular overall appearance with the rectangular face being longer than it is wide.
Objective Proportion - Create an illusion of length. Soften the angles giving the illusion that both the forehead and jaw line appear narrower.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Square Face
A thick eyebrow is best suited for a square frame face with a strong jaw line. The peak of the eyebrow is most effective when positioned exactly above the square of the jaw. This eyebrow shape will balance out the square appearance of the face and soften the facial contours.
HEART Face Shape
The heart frame is fuller and wider at the forehead tapering down to the cheeks, then down to a narrow and pointed chin. The jaw line on this facial shape is not usually prominent. This facial frame has a narrow chin that leads up to a broad forehead and the cheekbones are very visible.
Objective Proportion - Create an illusion of a narrower forehead and fuller jaw line. Diminish the width at the forehead and create a wider, fuller jaw effect of the face.
Perfect Eyebrow Shape for a Heart Face
Rounding the eyebrows with softer peaks is best suited for a heart shape face. A rounded shape helps by adding curves to soften the face plus emphasizes the lovely heart shape.
DIAMOND Face Shape
The diamond frame is a cross between a heart and dramatic oval shaped face. It is widest at the cheekbones and narrow equally at the forehead and jaw line. The face is highly angular with a short forehead and being widest at the temples. The cheekbone is clearly wider than the forehead and jaw line.
Objective Proportion - Create an illusion to reduce the width around the cheekbone line.
