Will eyebrow transplant work for Ulerythema Ophryogenes? (photos)

I have performed at least 3 eyebrow transplants on individuals with UO. Two of them were via FUT and one was via FUE. You can see the photos on my website. All were successful and the patient's were very pleased with their results. One of the patients wrote a blog about his experience online. I had all three patients seen by Dermatology prior to their eyebrow transplant to verify that the UO was inactive. I also explained to the patients that there is a possibility that the UO could recur in the future and damage the new hair grafts. Up to now the grafts have maintained in all three of my patients. As long as you understand all the possibilities before undergoing the procedure, and are ok with them, eyebrow transplantation for UO can be a treatment option.

Ulerythema Ophryogenes is a disease of inflammation and scaling of the skin.  The hair grafts for an eyebrow hair transplant go below the skin so this condition should not be a contraindication for a hair transplant. Of course, this condition can cause significant scarring so be careful and discuss this with your doctor before undergoing an eyebrow transplant
