  Many people have discovered that after many years of plucking their eyebrows, barely a few or no hair strands are left. Of course that is not a good sign at all. Very thin line brows are not pleasant to look at. That’s why people use makeup to remedy the situation. This is where eyeliners become life savers.

  Fortunately, those who want to bring the hair in their brows back need not worry anymore. There is a new cosmetic surgery procedure to restore those precious hair strands in their rightful places. If there is a hair transplant, there is also an eyebrow transplant - a procedure that aims to add hair to either light or nonexistent brows.

  CareFair tells us how the procedure is done.

  But what exactly is done during a transplant? A general anesthesia is offered first, Then, a doctor slices a strip of one`s scalp from the back of their head. Hair is taken from this piece as nurses cut this tissue into several pieces to separate the hairs that will be used for construction of the brow. After that, a doctor pokes millimeter size holes where the new brow hair will be implanted. These hairs are placed in one at a time. It is estimated that nearly 250 hairs are in each of our eyebrows. Do the math, the nurses could be there all day picking for stray hairs.

  The procedure typically costs $5,000 or higher. It’s for you to decide whether two small strips of hair are worth this much. The results are permanent though. The hair implanted will behave the same way as the natural hair so trimming or plucking still needs to be done afterwards.
