Regular Member MrlaidbackAB Posted July 30, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted July 30, 2011 I have been waiting 5 years to have hair transplation surgery. In my case it's not a missing hair case I need a hair transplant on my eyebrow areas one brow has a scar where hair no longer grows. The other area is just a patch of missing hair. I'm African amercian also male and it seems as if technology has not improved much since from 2006 in the transplation of eyebrows. I would rather wait if I have to then have a bad unnatural looking surgery on my eyebrows that I would end up regretting especially if in the future if I find there are more advance techniques in the hair transplation of eyebrows.

Senior Member Thehairupthere Posted July 31, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 31, 2011 It's certainly possible to have eyebrow transplantation for African American patients. The hair can be transplanted but they will grow curly, so you may need to do some trimming to keep it manageable. I am a consultant for Dr. True and Dr. Dorin. These opinions are my own.

Senior Member Louise Posted August 4, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 4, 2011 It is certainly possible for an African American to receive an eyebrow hair transplant. African American hair is curly below the surface of the skin as well as above. It is essential to make sure the the curl goes toward your face. Even then you would need to keep your eyebrows trimmed short, as Thehairupthere said.
