Dr. Arocha | Eyebrow Transplant - 1 Week Update


Recommended Posts

I thought it might be interesting to show some of the facial hair we've been doing in our office. This patient wanted to thicken his eyebrows. Dr. Arocha performed an approximately 600 graft FUE eyebrow transplant. After images were taken just one week after his procedure, and we look forward to updating as the result grows in.

what hair is used for eyebrow implantation? seems like anything implanted there would grow unnaturally fast compared to real eyebrows

Interesting question, I would assume the best hair would be arm hair, as it doesn't grow very long.

Hi Hairloss PA, 

Excellent question. Dr. Arocha does use the hair from the donor area just like he would a regular transplant. In this case, it was done using FUE because the patient tends to keep his hair shorter in the back. Here is the area just after the procedure.

Very interesting, thanks for posting 🙏 

Thanks for letting me post a case like this. Dr. Arocha has been doing lots of facial hair transplants over the last couple of years, and I think it's really interesting stuff to see and share!

You bring up a good point, Melvin. The transplanted eyebrow hair will grow as it typically would on the scalp. So, the patient will need to trim it a bit. But, the result is a very natural looking eyebrow!
