Almost two months ago I had both eyebrows restored. Just like a normal Bosley hair restoration I had about 100 and 150 hair placed, respectively. I need help with the fact that my eyebrows are still noticeably red and my doctor just keeps saying everyone heals differently. It's been two months!! I went to the dermatologist who prescribed me desonide ointment 0.05%. That was about two weeks ago. Still red. I feel like my doctor is avoiding me and just hoping that it goes away. This wasn't at all what I expected. I would have never done this procedure would I have known I would look like this two months later. Please advise!

Sometimes redness can last for months, so I would not be overly concerned at this point. Things might work out just fine once the hair begins to grow and the redness subsides.

Rachel,
It is not unusual for there to be some persistent redness in the transplanted region after an eyebrow transplant. In light skinned individuals this redness may persist longer. Usually it resolves within 12-16 weeks. My bigger concern is the number of grafts placed in each eyebrow. 100-150 grafts per eyebrow would be for a very minimal amount of eyebrow hair loss. My typical eyebrow transplant patients receive on average between 400-500 grafts per eyebrow. I hope this information helps you.Comment

Eyebrows are made up of courser and finer hairs. Achieving a natural look is key. Dr. Cole often utilizes a combination of CIT (Cole Isolation Technique) and BHT (Body Hair Transplant) to achieve a natural feathering of the eyebrows. Results can vary from person to person and results may take time to see. Because the hairs grow at various rates, some patients begin to see growth in less than a year.
