    TLDR Bimatoprost 0.03% is as effective as minoxidil 2% for eyebrow growth.
    This randomized controlled trial compared the efficacy and safety of 0.01% and 0.03% bimatoprost gels versus 2% minoxidil gel for treating eyebrow hypotrichosis in 60 subjects aged 18 and older. All three treatments significantly improved the Global Eyebrow Assessment (GEBA) scores (P ≤ 0.001), but no statistically significant differences were found between the groups (P1 = 0.091; P2 = 0.102; P3 = 0.663). The study concluded that bimatoprost, particularly at the 0.03% concentration, is as effective as minoxidil for eyebrow enhancement.
