World’s First Procedure Using Leg Hair For Male Eyebrow Restoration

The look of fuller eyebrows is a topic that has been ever-growing in popularity over recent years. Having prominent, well-groomed eyebrows cannot be obtained for those with naturally very thin or even hairless eyebrows. Although eyebrow hair transplant surgery exists, traditional techniques use devices better suited for harvesting thick head hair. Yet, more natural-looking results are possible through thinner leg hair. Because leg hair by nature is thinner and shorter in length, they are a better fit for reproducing the natural eyebrow look. This patient case, performed by Dr. Umar, represents the world’s first eyebrow restoration using more delicate hair taken from the legs. The resulting male eyebrow restoration detailed below is a significant event in hair transplant history and this patient’s life.

Thicker Eyebrows For Men, The Dr.UGraft™ Treatment For Sparse Brows – Before Photos

The gentleman below wanted thicker eyebrows to frame his face and give a more youthful, masculine appearance. His lack of eyebrows left him feeling embarrassed and self-conscious in social settings. However, he wanted to avoid the artificial and harsh look that results from typical eyebrow transplants that use thick caliber hair from the middle of the back of the head. Instead, he hoped to achieve a softer, more natural-looking definition and sought Dr. U’s help.

 

This patient feels his sparse eyebrows are unflattering in appearance and do not frame his face properly. He is, therefore, choosing to undergo an FUE eyebrow transplant for men.

Dr.UGraft™ Eyebrow Transplantation For Men Using 300 Grafts of Leg Hair 

Dr. Umar’s advanced body hair transplant technology, known as Dr.UGraft ™,  is precisely engineered to pull hair follicles from different body parts. Therefore it is possible to choose donor hair that closely matches a particular target, like natural eyebrow hair.

For this FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) procedure, he used 300 follicles from the patient’s legs. Leg hair closely matches the type of hair found in the brows. It also grows slower, more refined, and shorter than head hair (the conventional procedure in other clinics), making it ideal for recreating the length of eyebrow hair without requiring frequent trimming. 

This patient’s case is the first of its kind to be published in a peer-reviewed journal to illustrate the role of body hair in creating natural-looking eyebrows. Dr. Umar published it in the Journal of The American Academy Of Dermatology.

Dr. Umar applied the leg hair grafts to elongate the brows. When creating the shape of the patient’s eyebrows, Dr. Umar utilized principles that characterize the masculine eyebrow shape. Male brows tend to be straighter than female eyebrows. And the thickness is more or less uniform across the whole length. This patient’s natural brow shape is slightly rounded versus straight or arched. Dr. Umar inserted the leg hair grafts diffusely to create the soft, subtle density that the patient wanted.

Male Eyebrow Restoration: FAQ

Why is head hair an undesired donor choice for surgical treatment for sparse brows?

Head hair grows significantly faster than body hair from the legs, chest, or arms. When head hair is used in eyebrow transplant surgeries, the patients will find themselves trimming the hair frequently and having two different textures of hair. Moreover, because the hair is coarse, the result would look harsh and artificial.

How does Dr. Umar extract leg or nape hair follicles from the body when performing an FUE eyebrow transplant for men?

After many years of research, Dr. Umar has created a patented tool for the FUE procedure called the DrUPunch Rotor intelligent™. This tool used a rotary motion with a specially extended tip that allows for a more precise extraction than the conventional FUE tool. It also includes an irrigation system that helps graft survival and creates specially shaped wounds that promote ideal healing results.
