The use of hair transplantation is probably the best solution available today for eyebrow restoration. Take a look at this post from last month and you will see the absolutely natural appearance of an eyebrow transplant. I wouldn’t expect the tattooing to cause eyebrow loss, but I’d be more concerned about the tattooed eyebrows looking […]

If you weren’t happy with your dermatologist’s review of your eyebrow (you said he didn’t even look at it before prescribing medication), you should consider seeing another dermatologist that will examine the hair loss. As for me, I honestly do not know. It is strange that you are losing eyebrow hair on only one side. […]
That’s an interesting question. I don’t have personal experience with eyebrow plucking and I do not know the answer to this one. I am sure you will know the answer when they fall out (go into telogen, part of the normal hair cycle) and then regrow. Keep in mind that continuously tweezing of the hair […]
Here’s a male patient we haven’t shown before, with some beautiful eyebrow transplant results. I placed 189 grafts into his eyebrows with almost all single hair grafts taken from the scalp using follicular unit extraction (FUE). In general, eyebrows are difficult to get control of the direction of the hair as it exits the skin, […]
I’ve never heard of the ability to cause hair loss in a particular area (left eyebrow, in your case) just by focusing attention on it without some kind of physical contact to the hair. It sounds like you have trichotillomania. It is an obsessive compulsive disorder that needs professional help.
I’ve never seen eyebrow hair loss from sleeping on your face before, nor have I even heard of this occurring. It probably is an old wives’ tale, but I’m open to ideas others might have about this.
Eyebrow transplantation is a delicate art and even for skilled medical groups it is never perfect. As you correctly state, the eyebrows can grow slightly raised and grow in slightly different directions, regardless of how precisely you pay attention to detail. And since the focus is right above your eye, the eyebrow transplant subtleties are […]
Shock loss can also occur with eyebrow transplantation. The main side effect (if it can be called a side effect) is lifelong trimming of your eyebrow, as it will continue to grow like your scalp hair. For the original viable eyebrows that falls out from what I will call hair transplant shock, these may not […]
I really couldn’t make an attempt at an answer to what you are asking without examining you myself. So I’m not sure what it could be. If it is indeed seborrheic dermatitis, treatments are usually limited to antifungal shampoos. You didn’t mention which meds you were prescribed, so I’m kind of at a loss there, […]
Many patients who suffer from eyebrow hair loss find hair transplantation may be a good option. Generally, I would wait at least one year to see if your eyebrows would naturally regrow before considering a transplant. You should also realize that when you transplant scalp hair to the eyebrow, the hairs will continue to grow […]
I would say it takes a few weeks to months for eyebrows to grow back after plucking. If you haven’t seen growth after a year, I would think your chances for regrowth are very low, though anything is possible. Continuous plucking is the most common cause of hair loss from the eyebrow.
Unfortunately, many men and women experience eyebrow thinning as they age. It may just be age related, but it can also be an infectious process or a hormonal issue. Many also pull at their eyebrows, even without realizing it, and that can be a cause of the loss of hair as well. Eyebrow transplants work […]
If you plucked your eyebrows and they are sparse, the hair missing from the overplucking probably will not return. Hair transplants work well to fill in the missing hair in the eyebrows. Minoxidil will probably not help grow new hair at the eyebrows, but I suppose you can give it a shot. If it works, […]
If on target for the eyebrow hair you are treating, electrolysis can be effective in just one treatment. In other words, eyebrow hairs often do not regrow after having been killed off with electrolysis. Eyebrow transplants using scalp hair work very well to solve your problem. As you indicated you’re in California, I have offices […]
As with hair transplant surgery on the scalp, you should see some results from an eyebrow transplant anywhere between 3 months up to 12 months after the procedure. Some grow faster, some grow slower. Everybody is different.
