Can Body Hair Be Used for Eyebrows Transplant?

November 16, 2011
Asked By:yagohaiku in Spain

I need to repair my right eyebrow because of an accident. I was told that scalp hair trasplanted to eyebrows should be trimmed periodically. Ok, then, I was thinking if body hair (legs, chest...) would be a good option to repair the eyebrow. I don't need many grafts, I 'm a male and I have much hair all over my body. In conlusion, could body hair be used for eyebrows trasplant? Would it be a good idea to minimize trimming? Thank you very much for your help.
