Implanting Artificial Hair for Alopecia Areata Patient?

May 9 2008, 9:33 am PT | Posted in: Other Surgical Procedures

HELLO Dr. Rassman

I am a 24 year old male and suffer from Alopecia Areata. Is it possible too have false hair transplants as i have no hair on my scalp, i only want eyebrow hair is this a possibility and what are the procedures!!

Implanting artificial hair is dangerous and leads to massive infection. This is not a solution. Usually, alopecia areata does not cause complete loss of the scalp hair, and you may have alopecia totalis or alopecia universalis.
