Is it possible my eyebrow hair follicles have been damaged after laser tattoo removal for semi-permanent makeup?

June 5, 2023

I’m 35 year-old female receiving laser tattoo removal treatments on my eyebrows for semi-permanent make-up (microblading). I’ve had 7 treatments so far using the Spectra and Pico lasers resulting in some unwanted hair loss. I’m concerned because it’s been a few months with seemingly slow growth and visible gaps & sparse areas. Is this temporary? Is there a possibility that hair follicles were damaged and have been destroyed following the several treatments? I pray it’s only a matter of time.
