Eyebrows play an important role in framing your face. Genetics can play a role in the look and fullness of your brows — some people are born with thick, ample eyebrow hair, while others have thin, sparser hairs above their eyes. People who don’t have a lot of eyebrow hair often make them appear fuller or thicker by filling in their eyebrows with cosmetic products.
Eyebrows don’t only serve a cosmetic purpose, however — they divert moisture like droplets and sweat away from your eyes.
Eyebrow hair loss can happen for several reasons. Certain medications, injuries, medical conditions, or even taking some vitamins excessively might cause you to lose eyebrow hair.
People who have little to no eyebrow hair might want to change their appearance. In these cases, eyebrow transplants could be an option to help alter the appearance of your brows and make them look fuller.
There are multiple reasons why someone might need an eyebrow transplant.
Some of those reasons include:
Burns to the eyebrow area
Scarring
Tumors
Trichotillomania, when people suffer from the uncontrollable urge to pull their hair out
Alopecia areata (stabilized), an autoimmune condition that makes your hair fall out
Loss of eyebrows or eyelashes due to an underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism)
Another group of people who might receive eyebrow transplants are those who suffer from hypervitaminosis A. Hypervitaminosis A is a condition where there are toxic levels of vitamin A in your body.
The recommended daily amount (RDA) of vitamin A for an adult 19 years and older is 4,300 international units (IU) per day. The upper daily limit is 10,000 IU. If you take too much vitamin A, it can be very toxic for your body. It can cause your hair to fall out.
Hair loss due to hypervitaminosis A isn’t always permanent. In some cases when people had hair loss due to hypervitaminosis A, it was corrected after the patients lowered their vitamin A intake.
