Abstract
-
Scars on hair-bearing skin such as the eyebrow produces an unsightly cosmetic appearance because of the absence of hairs on the area. Micropigmentation can be used to overcome the problem effectively because surgical revision, hair transplantation and cosmetic camouflage have some limitations. The use of micropigmentation for medical purpose in Korea has been growing rapidly, but eyebrow scars treated by micropigmnetation have not yet been described in the Korean literature. In this report, we present three cases of eyebrow scars which were treated successfully with micropigmentation.
