Information about eyebrow transplants

Posted: Updated:

We know millions suffer from thinning hair, but what about the eyebrows?  If your eyebrows are too thin, or if you've lost them completely, did you know some people are offering hair transplants for the eyebrow?  It's a tedious process.

Dr. Sanusi Umar said, "We take one hair at a time, and plant it in the area of need, and in this case is the eyebrow."

Dr. Umar removes the hair from the back of the neck because he says that's where the hair has the same texture as it does on the eyebrows.
