Figures 2Aand 2B — (A) Multiple skin-colored to violaceous, 2-4mm sized, flat-topped papules arranged linearly near the left eyebrow of a 35-year-old woman that developed following eyebrow threading. (B) The “threading procedure.” A double stranded thread has been converted to a figure 8 with two triangles, and one triangle of the thread is placed over the target eyebrow. Keeping the thread juxtaposed to the hairline, quick opposing scissors-like movements against the direction of hair growth removes the hair.
