More and more women want to look like a supermodel or their Hollywood star. Facial hair removal for women is something that has become as normal as a men shaving his body hair. The opposite of a facial hair removal is an eyebrow transplant or restoration. An increasing amount of people considers an eyebrow restoration nowadays. In this article I am going to inform you about this little cosmetic surgery procedure.
Reasons.
There can be multiple reasons why you want a eyebrow restoration. Some potential reasons are; because you where in a serious accident and burned your eyebrows off, have been plucking them for a long period and the hair does not grow back anymore, you suffer from the side effects of drugs or medicines, chemotherapy treatment, or you just do not like the shape of your eyebrows.
Are you a good candidate?
If you want to have a eyebrow restoration it is important to speak with an experienced hair restoration surgeon about your reasons. They can evaluate if you are a good candidate for this procedure.
The Procedure.
The hair restoration surgeon is going to transplant hair from one part of your body, usually the head, and implant this on your eyebrow. The result will be a very natural looking eyebrow. The procedure takes about 1 to 5 hours of your time depending on the amount of hair he has to transplant and implant.
Insurance.
Most people do not have their eyebrow restoration covered by the insurance policy because it is a cosmetic procedure. People who need eyebrow restoration or transplantation due to an accident or medical conditions are probably covered by their insurance company. It is always useful to inform and ask your insurance agent if you are insured for this procedure and what the requirements are.
Down time.
There is a minimal down time with this procedure. After the transplant and implant you will have some redness where the hairs are placed. Within a month this redness is gone and all other activities, like work, can be resumed shortly after the procedure.
