Procedure detail
This patient was interested in an eyebrow transplant to increase the density of
his existing sparce eyebrows. He stated that he never had very thick eyebrows so
his goal was to define the eyebrows more especially in the outer half of each
one. He did not want them too thick.
Approximately 230 single haired
grafts were densely placed in each eyebrow. The hair direction is extremely
important in eyebrows as the hairs must lay flat against the skin and in the
correct orientation in specific portions of the eyebrow. The middle portion of
each eyebrow is oriented up and laterally. The middle portion is oriented
laterally, and the outer portion of each eyebrow is oriented laterally and
inferiorly. If the hairs are not oriented properly, then the eyebrow does not
look natural.
The before photos are presented with the outline desired by
the patient. The post op photographs are 6 months out. As seen, they are growing
well and will mature over the next 18 months.
