Many of the grafts fell out or I’ve plucked out because they did not grow in the direction of the normal hair and could not be tamed. I’ve got maybe 10 hairs left that grow consistently but I pluck or shave them off due to the unpleasant look.

... And they're gone. All the graphs had fallen out and I have a tingly spot on the back on my head from where the hair was plucked. All in all not a positive experience and I would not have done it again. I have since went ahead with microblading to try and cope with the fact I have no brow hairs and this seems like my best option so far.

I've very sorry to hear it didn't work out for you, but I'm very happy that you were brave enough to post a 2 year follow-up photo. So many of the other posts in this forum just post a short-term photo, which doesn't tell the true story of the longer term outcome.

I suggest you contact the surgeon and ask him how this can be fixed.

They can re-do them but I wouldn't even bother taking the chance. It's not worth it.

Perhaps they should have taken out the scar-tissue as much as possible, and then, after 6-12 months do the hair transplant?!
October 20, 2016
Maybe but the hair follicles that they have taken from the back of my head have not all regenerated.. so I wouldn't try doing that again.

Of course it is worth it, after they have take out the scar-tissue. That was most likely the main problem.

I read your posts as I was in the healing process (still am)...I too need to resort to microblading as one eyebrow grew and the other did not at all. Can you tell me if your microblading took well given the scar tissue created from your transplant? Was your skin rough in texture at all before you microbladed them?? How did your microblading heal? We can be each other's support system! I don't know how many of us there are out there who underwent a transplant followed by microblading. And most importantly they look great!!! I hope you're thrilled with them!

Hi Jen, the skin tends to be quite dry and course where my scars are and because of this I dont think the ink took as well as others. I'll add a photo. It's better than it was but if I could give anyone words of advice.. I would tell them to leave their brows alone.

I also want to add, Chay, the lady who did my brows is fantastic and I have seen her work on others so I think my scar tissue is the main issue.

Have you been tested for thyroid or alopecia? If the grafts grew initially then they took root and they would not just fall out unless there is an underlying medical issue.
October 26, 2016
Yes, I have been tested and according to the dermatologist the only contributing factor is stress... otherwise I'm 110% percent healthy

4 Months after transplant

Another two more months and I will see final results ... although I don't think they are what I had hoped to achieve. The hairs, I think, were placed too far apart which leaves them looking sparse. I am not allowed to pluck my eyebrows until month 6 and have noticed many brows are definitely not as thick as they looked when I first got them. I'm unsure if the hairs are suppose to fall out or keep on growing.. it might be best to get all the details from an English speaking doctor (or whatever your first language may be) so you know what to expect. My donor area is growing back well, hardly noticeable and has probably grown two or three inches.
In the pictures you can seem some of the tattoo I had in my brows has turned to a reddish pigment and the area where hairs were implanted still seems a little red.

How many grafts did you get? Hopefully you see more hairs sprouting in the next few months.

Hi Amanda, i'm very curious to know how your brows are doing now? I'm 1.5 months out after my eyebrow transplant and also have sparse growth. But I'm being patient until at least 3-4 months out. Did your brows fill in? Could you post a new pic? Thank you!
January 19, 2015
You are making good progress, it certainly does take time to see the final results. Thanks for the update.

How are your eyebrows doing now? I am 3 months post and have sparse hair and a ton of scarring :(

You still have the outline of lovely shaped brows. Just colour them in! It is fine to do that today - I see lots of people of all ages with very obviously penciled/powdered in brows and they look great. I live in Asia and I see these brows everywhere.

Thnx littlemo! I wish it was that easy but I'm a scuba diver so my brows wash away in water :/ I was looking for something permanent but look like I have to work with what I have
