Long beautiful eyelashes and full glamorous eyebrows are not something most of us women were born with but now with the introduction of semi-permanent eyelash extensions there was finally hope.  To take the lash and brow thing one step further there is now also eyelash transplant and eyebrow transplant surgery available.  To give you a quick overview hair follicles are basically taken from the back of your scalp and brought to the eyelash area or eyebrow to be transplanted. This surgery is beneficial to those suffering from Alopecia - which is loss of hair, congenital reasons, disease, plucking or undergoing chemotherapy or radiation.

Since this surgery requires specialized training and expertise only a handful of cosmetic and plastic surgeons are offering this new and popular service alongside their breast surgeries, liposuction and facelifts. 

In Tuscon, Arizona Dr. Mikel Lo has added this unique service to his menu.    To find out more information on eyelash and eyebrow transplants visit Dr. Mikel Lo’s website at www.aboutfacescosmetic.com.

P.S. Regular trimming required.

Hollywood Stars are loving their lashes! Xtreme Lashes the provider for eyelash extensions was a popular beauty treatment for celebrities prior to the Oscars.  The Fekai salon quoted that “99% of Hollywood actresses” are having them applied this week to “get noticed at the Oscars,” including stars Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson. 

Eyelash extensions started to become popular in the past year and are not just for celebrities anymore.  Women are busy and want convenience as well as a low maintenance beauty routine.  Women are realizing how wonderful eyelash extensions are for everyday wear.  Brides are having them done for their weddings and women going away for a weekend somewhere.  Any reason is a reason to have the eyelash extensions applied.  Mascara is something I would never leave home without but now with eyelash extensions I can!

For those of you obsessed with long and beautiful lashes but looking for a more permanent solution then the fairly recent introduction of the popular semi-permanent eyelash extensions.  A brand new procedure for cosmetic reasons is now available to those who want long beautiful lashes permanently.  Surgically transplanted lashes is the newest surgery available where a small incision is made on your scalp and 30 to 40 hair follicles are removed and sewn on one by one on the eyelid area.  Now since your head hair grows so will your lashes which means you will need regular trims.  Cost is around $3000/eye.  Since this procedure is still so new there may not be alot of surgeons trained in it.

For anyone who is doing the latest greatest craze of semi-permanent eyelash extensions then this kit might just be what you need.  It’s the Lash Beauty Kit from Xtreme Lashes.  It contains Water Based Mascara, a Longer Life coating to help keep the extended lashes looking fresh and staying on longer between fills and also a heated eyelash curler. It is important that if you are going to have extensions applied that you only use products that are made for extensions otherwise you risk having the extensions break or fall out prematurely.  Can be ordered directly through http://www.xtremelashes.com/ .

For those of you who do not want to go the eyelash extension route Age Intervention Eyelash is a great new alternative and this stuff really works!  I have been using the Age Intervention from Jan Marini for about 6 months now and everyone thinks my lashes are extensions.  I was a little skeptical at first but after a few weeks of use i started to notice a difference, my eyelashes were actually growing!   With the Age Intervention Eyelash product results are not immediate but with patience and continued use your lashes actually do grow.  They grow to where people actually take notice and comment.  The product is from Jan Marini Skin Research. It’s pricey … about $160 but definitely worth it and the tube lasts for about 4 months.  It’s really simple to use.. apply like a liquid eyeliner at the root of your lashes once prior to bedtime every night… but i’ve missed some nights and my lashes are still gowing.  This can also be used on your lower lashes and eyebrows.  Age Intervention Eyelash can be purchased at PUURSPA

The one thing that every woman wants are long, beautiful, flirty eyelashes.  Unfortunately most of us were not born with this luxury but the great news is that now because of the introduction of semi-permanent lashes we can all have them - for a price of course… they do not come cheap.  This is one of my many specialties.  I own a Lash studio in San Diego.  The space is like a tranquil retreat filled with soothing sounds and aromatic smells from the candles.  The procedure itself is really quite relaxing.  Most of my clients tend to just doze off.  For me it is quite meditative.  I always love quiet time for myself and this helps me to achieve it without taking time out of my day. My clients range from early 20’s to mid 60’s.  It’s so amazing to see someones face when they look in the mirror after having them done and to see their reaction.  Typically the first thing they say is WOW they look so natural.  Most become addicted, others it’s a one time thing.  I find that alot of women do this for special occassions as well. Either way it’s definitely worth it to try just once.  I’ll be back to write more on extensions soon. If anyone has any questions about eyelash extensions please send them to contact@stellarbeauty.net.  I’d be happy to answer them in a post.
