How Can I Thicken my Eyebrows?

Question

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?

How can I thicken my eyebrows?
There are various methods to thicken eyebrows:
Latisse- off label use has reportedly helped some patients
Eyebrow transplantation- We use FUE (off-label use of ARTAS) with regenerative techniques to ensure healthy looking brows
Microblading- Tattooing of the eyebrows which lasts between 6 months to a year

Matthew Richardson, MD · Answer

Eyebrow transplant is certainly option to thicken the eyebrows. This can be performed in both men and women. A well-trained hair restoration surgeon can place the grafts in such a way that they appear extremely natural and create a very aesthetically-pleasing result. Price will vary widely from one surgeon to another.
All the best,

Hello Ryan44Thank you for your question. I would suggest you go an see a local surgeon and get a real idea for your situation, on how to help.Over-plucking, genetics, ageing and illness leave many with permanently damaged hair follicles that are no longer able to grow. At Bella Vou we use proven cosmetic techniques to solve permanent hair loss in the brow area. Eyebrow restoration with Bella Vou is an excellent way to replace eyebrows or touch up small areas of hair loss that result from over-plucking, scars, or genetic causes.Our prices for this procedure start at £3,500. I wish you well with your journey and getting your desired outcome.

One option to thicken eyebrow is a eyebrow hair transplant surgery.  You would need to consult with doctor to make sure this would be an option for you.  The price range can be in the thousands.

Sanusi Umar, MD · Answer

Yes, eyebrow transplant is a very viable option for someone seeking thicker eyebrows due to:

	
		Cosmetic over-plucking
	
		Hair loss with age
	
		Naturally thin eyebrows
	
		Accident/burn


	Eyebrow transplant requires follicular unit extraction and the use of nape hair (which is a slow-growing fine-caliber hair that blends with the eyebrows well). Practitioners of body hair transplant are able to enlist leg hair as a donor source if needed, which may be an even better cosmetic match than nape hair. The price ranges between $5 per graft and $12 per graft usually. But some surgeons charge by the hour.

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!

Frank Agullo, MD · Answer

Hair can be transplanted from the scalp to the eyebrows to provide more fullness and density. More than one session might be necessary.

The
Neograft system enables an experienced technician to extract single hair
grafts/hair follicles from the lateral part of the occipital region of your
scalp, which offers the largest number of small diameter single-hair follicular
units which are required to build eyebrow transplants that can’t be distinguished
from natural ones. Of
all the differenthair
replacement procedures, eyebrow hair
restoration requires the most skill, precision and artistry.

Jeffrey W. Hall, MD · Answer

I would highly recommend you consider hair transplantation to thicken the eyebrows. It's a permanent solution that I find very successful for patients. The only downside is that it requires patience. A eyebrow hair transplant can take up to a year to yield final results. The charge for the transplant will likely run you somewhere around $3000 and takes approximately 3 hours to complete. You'll experience swelling for the first 7-10 days and will have some redness around the brow area for about 4 weeks post procedure.

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 create them. It has truly been a game changer, and I believe that I am one of very few how is doing that.
