AB  - The eyebrows play an essential role in facial expression and frame the central portion of the face. The loss of eyebrows, seen in cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) or due to other factors such as burns or trauma, can be addressed by hair transplantation. From the first procedures in 1939 to the evolution of techniques such as follicular unit excision (FUE) and long hair/non-shaven hair FUE (NS-FUE), hair transplantation has allowed for the restoration of natural, dense eyebrows. The most advanced technique, long hair FUE (LHF), introduced in 2016, combines the benefits of standard FUE and NS-FUE, eliminating the need for shaving and allowing a preview of the donor and recipient areas as well as the ability to see the curl of the hair. Here we present a successful case of eyebrow transplantation using the long hair FUE technique.
