Question

Can I get hair transplant surgery for my eyebrows?

ever since I was 13 I was plucking my eyebrows, the wrong way, i have pulled out some of the roots in the start of my eyebrows and in the curves of my eyebrow line. so now theres a huge gap between my eyebrows.

is it possible to get very minor hair implant surgery to put back hair follicles in my eyebrows? how much would it run? thanks..

A transplant may be an option

        Many people who pluck do not scar and the eyebrows do regrow. For those hairs that do not regrow, hair transplants with single hairs can be done by experienced transplant surgeons. The cost could be very different from surgeon to surgeon and depending upon the town in which the surgeon practices.

Absolutely. Hair transplant surgery would be a great option for the problem you describe. Costs are variable between physicians and will generally depend on the amount of hair grafts which are to be transplanted.
