Chrissy Teigen has a new set of eyebrows. The model has revealed the results of an eyebrow transplant that she received after she says she overplucked in her teens.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old shared three videos to her Instagram Story on November 20, showing the outcome of her transplant and explaining why she went through with the procedure. "I never wear makeup if I can avoid it, so I was so excited for this eyebrow transplant surgery," she wrote over a picture of her face with noticeably fuller brows. "They take hairs from the back of your head!!"<\/p>\n
Here's what you need to know about eyebrow transplants.<\/p>\n RELATED: Chrissy Teigen Posts a Video of Her Cheeks After Getting Buccal Fat Removal—Here's What That Is<\/strong><\/p>\n An eyebrow transplant, which is a type of follicular unit transplantation, involves<\/a> taking hair from another part of your head and inserting it into the area where your eyebrows are.<\/p>\n Here's how an article from the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery<\/a><\/em> describes the procedure: First, a patient and their doctor will work together with an eyebrow pencil to figure out the look that the patient wants. After that, the doctor will make marks with a surgical pen to determine the margin and locations of the eyebrows' mid-line and peak points.<\/p>\n From there, the surgeon will use a machine to harvest hair from the lower-back portion of the patient's head. The hair is then trimmed to one to two centimeters in length and injected into the patient's eyebrow region. The new eyebrows are then trimmed to look like a normal length.<\/p>\n It's actually "similar to other hair transplantation procedures," dermatologist Gary Goldenberg, MD, of New York City's Goldenberg Dermatology<\/a>, tells Health<\/em>.<\/p>\n RELATED: Chrissy Teigen Shows Scars on Breasts, Says She's Had 'Two Lifts By 35' In New Instagram Video<\/strong><\/p>\n It depends. Some people, like Teigen, have overplucked their eyebrows and the brows haven't grown back. "When women over-pluck or -wax their eyebrows, it can damage the hair follicle and potentially cause scarring," plastic surgeon Stafford Broumand, MD, of 740 Park Plastic Surgery<\/a> in New York City, tells Health<\/em>. "The constant removal of the hair from the root can eventually cause the hair to stop growing back."<\/p>\n Eyebrow hair is "very sensitive and does not have the same regenerative potential as hair on other regions of the body," Dr. Goldenberg says. So once it's gone, it's gone.<\/p>\n Others who get the transplant may simply have naturally thinner eyebrows than they prefer.<\/p>\n In general, people can expect to have fuller, thicker eyebrows after transplant surgery, according to Dr. Broumand. "This will help improve the patient's shape and appearance of the eyebrow," he says.<\/p>\n And if it's not quite what you'd like, you can always have more added later<\/a>. Just a heads up, though, per Dr. Goldenberg: "One of the issues with this procedure is trying to match the quality of the hair to the hair of the eyebrow region."<\/p>\n It's also important to keep this in mind: the transplanted hair will be slightly different from your normal eyebrow hair. "Unlike natural eyebrow hair, the transplanted scalp hair will continue to grow just as it does on your scalp," Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of Cosmetic and Clinical Research in the Department of Dermatology at New York's Mount Sinai Hospital, tells Health<\/em>. <\/p>\n That can create a little more brow maintenance than most people are used to, dermatologist Ife J. Rodney, MD, founding director of Eternal Dermatology + Aesthetics<\/a> and professor of dermatology at Howard University and George Washington University, tells Health<\/em>. "With an eyebrow transplant, your eyebrows will get super long after time," she says. "You'll have to trim them and continue to trim them." But, she adds, "once the hair is in and it's healthy, those hairs are in there."<\/p>\n While the results are permanent, they're not necessarily immediate. You'll have hair that's implanted right away, and then it will eventually start to grow like normal eyebrows, according to Dr. Broumand. "Generally, new hair will take six to 12 months to grow," he says.<\/p>\n Chrissy-Teigen-Eyebrow-Transplant-GettyImages-1315945748<\/span> —posted about his most recent work, as well. "I know too many people, entire generations, who either overplucked brows as part of the trend or are simply experiencing eyebrow thinning with time," he wrote in the Instagram caption. "#EyebrowTransplantation is a procedure where we mutually agree on shape, density, etc., and skill takes it from there."<\/p>\n
