Dr. Phil's wife, Robin McGraw, recently revealed on her podcast, I’ve Got a Secret!, that she underwent an eyebrow transplant that completely changed the look of her face.
I don't know about you, but I've never heard of such a thing!
“It brought my entire face into proportion,” she said.
The surgeon who performed the transplant back in 2011, Dr. Marc Dauer, did so by using a piece of her scalp along with the hair follicles to graft new eyebrows.
He revealed that overall, the procedure is noninvasive, but can make a big difference to the look of someone's face.
“If they start too far over or if they’re just missing in different places, it just changes your whole look.”
She admitted that before having the surgery, she hated her brows so much that she got bangs to cover them.
“To this day, I have eyebrows that I just love.”

It's wild how something as simple as eyebrows can change the entire look of your face.
Her new brows look amazing!
“People come to them and say, ‘You look younger’ or, ‘Did you lose weight?’” he said. “They can’t pinpoint it.”
“For seven days after the eyebrow transplant surgery there will be tiny scabs which appear like dots of sand on the skin," the site reads.
“There is also a slight pinkness in the transplanted skin that persists for four to twelve weeks after the procedure depending on how quickly the patient heals.”
And according to the website, many patients will have to undergo two rounds of this procedure if they're looking for “greater density.”
"Thank you to the incredibly beautiful and talented Robin McGraw who invited me on her great new podcast 'I’ve Got A Secret'," he wrote.
"I have no doubt this will help others who are unhappy with their eyebrows and unsure how to address it."
