A small portion of my right eyebrow lost in accident due to stitches. Can this part of eyebrows hair come back?
Answer: Scarred eyebrow Unfortunately the scar tissue usually replaces the hair follicles so there most likely won't be hair growing back in the area. Replacing the follicles with a transplant can camoflage the scar tissue in the area where the eyebrow previous was and restore symmetry to the face. The angles of the grafts are critical for a natural result so its important to find a surgeon experienced with this specialized type of transplant.

Answer: Hair growth following a scar The scar area in the eyebrow will likely not support hair growth. Hair transplantation may be an option, but I would wait a minimum of 6 months following the injury to allow for proper wound healing and contraction before doing so. I have performed successful hair transplantation to reestablish the eyebrow and conceal the scar on multiple patients with similar presentations.
