“…is area is preferred to give best aesthetic outcome as the hairs are softer, finer and generally have thinner calibers as opposed to hair in the midoccipital area.

Hair transplantation remains a safe treatment option for patients who either desire to make the eyebrows appear fuller or the need to restore facial aesthetics in cases with scarring, as eyebrows constitute a prominent feature of the face. The increased aversion to undergoing head shaving due to occupational, social, and/or personal reasons in many patients, has led to the increased demand of non-shaven/long hair follicular unit excision (NSFUE) technique. With the advent of this technique, surgery is unnoticeable and a preview of upcoming results is achieved immediately after the procedure. With only a handful cases reported in world literature, we report the successful outcome of eyebrow transplantation using the NS-FUE technique in a 25-year-old female with post-traumatic scarring alopecia of eyebrow.

However, though it is a small area it requires a lot of precision and knowledge regarding anatomy, designing of brows, extraction and implantation technique. This article gives a comprehensive view regarding eyebrow transplant with special emphasis on follicular unit extraction technique, which has become the most popular technique.

“… 1 - 7 In contrast, body hair restoration (BHR) describes use of head or body hair in areas of loss in nonscalp areas (such as pubic or eyebrow hair restoration or eyelashes). 8 - 14 Body hair from the beard, trunk, and the extremities can be transplanted by follicular unit extraction (FUE) methods and combined with head hair, if available, to cover both scalp and nonscalp areas to improve severe baldness, 1 create more natural and softer hairlines, 5 repair donor strip scars from previous hair restoration surgeries, 6 and restore facial and body hair. 8 - 13 …”

BackgroundBody hair shafts from the beard, trunk, and extremities can be used to treat baldness when patients have inadequate amounts of scalp donor hair, but reports in the literature concerning use of body hair to treat baldness are confined to case reports.ObjectivesThis study aimed to assess the outcome of body hair transplanted to bald areas of the scalp in selected patients.MethodsFrom 2005 through 2011, 122 patients preselected for adequate body hair had donor hair transplanted from the beard, trunk, and the extremities to the scalp by follicular unit extraction (FUE) by the author at a single center. All patients were emailed surveys to assess surgical outcomes and overall satisfaction.ResultsSeventy-nine patients (64.8%) responded with a mean time of 2.9 years between date of last surgery and time of survey. Patients were generally very satisfied with results of their procedure, giving mean scores of at least a 7.8 on a Likert-like scale of 0 to 10 for their healing status, hair growth in recipient areas, and overall satisfaction with their surgeries. These scores were comparable to mean scores provided by patients whose transplants included scalp donor sources.ConclusionsFUE using body hair can be an effective hair transplantation method for a select patient population of hirsute individuals who suffer from severe baldness or have inadequate scalp donor reserve.Level of Evidence:4 Therapeutic
