In addition to offering both Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE, also known as the NeoGraft® system) for hair restoration, the Quatela Center for Hair Restoration also performs eyebrow transplants. Individuals with partial or complete loss of one or both of their eyebrows are possible candidates for the procedure.
