I had an eyebrow hair transplant 3 years ago and now my new eyebrow doesn't look natural. The transplanted hairs are so thick that they stand on. I had this procedure when I was in the UK. Now I'm back in my home country, which means I can't go back to the clinic I had the procedure. Is there any way to fix this? There are no clinics in my country that do this procedure so I don't have anyone to turn to for advice or help.

Answer: Non-natural eyebrow result It is tough to make an eyebrow transplant look natural, even in the best surgical hands, and so it would be expected that if you do only one brow, it might look a bit different. The first thing you should consider is getting in touch with the surgeon who originally did the transplant. I know you are in different countries, but they may have some ideas for how the appearance can be improved. You can also consider electrolysis (or laser hair removal) which can sometimes have the even nicer effect of making the hairs grow in finer - and thus looking more natural. In some cases, if the hair is really too thick to manage, you can laser all the previous transplant away and fill it in with much finer hair that looks more natural. Even a tattoo can look natural and might be a good alternative to additional surgery. Definitely try training the hair to lay as flat as possible with either brow gel or wax and pluck the ones that are the most problematic until you decide what to do about the overall appearance.Good Luck!
