A Hair Raising Prospect: Eyebrow Transplants All the Rage in ... (Hollywood Reporter)

Chrissy Teigen, Meagan Good, Robin McGraw and hairstylist Jen Atkin have all had the procedure, which can cost up to $20000.

“I’ve refined it, so the hair lays as flat as possible against the skin,” says Champagne. If done incorrectly, he says that “the hair can stick straight out of the face, and the only way to get rid of it is to do laser hair removal or electrolysis.” While there are many hair growth-promoting elixirs and treatments on the market — such as FDA-approved Latisse (which Dauer recommends) — none of them will grow new hair. Conducted under local anesthesia, the five-hour procedure ($8,000 to $20,000 in Beverly Hills, say the surgeons THR spoke to) involves transplanting an average of 250 hairs per brow, typically from a site on the back of the scalp, and inserting them one by one into the brow area. Since the new hairs come from the scalp, texture varies and growth outpaces existing brow hairs. So I started doing microblading [in which semipermanent pigment is injected into brows] when I was 30, but the lines started to bleed into each other. I grew up in the ’90s, when everybody was doing their brows super thin, so by the time I was 19 they weren’t growing back.
