I have eyebrows that are very thin and feminine. They make the top half of my face appear girl-like. I would like to know if there is a procedure where it can help make my eyebrows appear more like a man's? Also, do you know the price range?

New Eyebrow Transplant Technique

Eyebrow transplantation is an expression of science and art. The shape of the eyebrow created is something that must be a reflection of the surgeon's artistry and judgment in collaboration with a patient. It must be gender, ethnic, and facially adapted. One of the most marvelous inventions is an implanter that I have been using now for a year that has totally changed the game on eyebrow transplants allowing me to densely pack the grafts and to see the results as I... more

Hair Transplant for eyebrows

The ability to transplant hair to the eyebrows totally depends on the quality of the hair in the lower back of the head. In some individuals the hair is a good match for eyebrows and others it is not. Only a doctor can tell you this. Also, you have to trim this hair constantly because it continues to grow.

Eyebrow hair grafting

Eyebrows can be grafted to give greater density, as well as to replace hairs that may either have been plucked or shaved. The traditional donor site using the posterior scalp is considered.

Off-label use of Latisse for eyebrow thickening in one possibility. Of course, when you stop using the Latisse, the hairs will eventually fall out. You should consider an in-person consultation for hair transplantation to your eyebrows. We have seen great results using this technique. The donor site scar is short and heals remarkably well. It is often imperceptible, even by your stylist. The procedure can be done in our office and under local anesthetic. One... more

Eyebrow Options

I would start with Latisse but will take around 8 weeks to see full result. The down side to the Latisse is that it will be a lifelong treatment for you. A hair transplant to the eyebrows is a definite option. You will need to trim the newly implanted hairs and you may need more then one session for adequate thickness. Good luck!

Eyebrow transplants

Depending on the qualities of the eyebrow and scalp hair , hair transplants might be done. The scalp hair has to have the same caliber, color and curl as the eyebrows. Eyebrow transplants are not all that easy to do and usually require 2 sessions as survival of transplanted hairs is lower than scalp to scalp transplants.
