Shannen Doherty says cosmetic procedure has given her ‘confidence’

Shannen Doherty had a cosmetic procedure done to her face and is ‘thrilled’ with the results.

The Beverly Hills, 90210 actress went to a professional to have the work done, and the person who did the job posted before and after snaps to show his followers what his magical powers did to the Hollywood favorite.

The 51-year-old Charmed star also said that it felt great to have the work done as she battles cancer. 

Doherty confirmed the procedure and added a lengthy note to Instagram about how much she loved the change.

She added, ‘Since chemo, I have struggled with my eyebrows. As you can see, they were sparse and i am not the person that enjoys waking up and filling them in every morning. 

‘I am beyond thrilled with @eyebrowking_ and the boost of confidence this gave me is priceless. You are the king Tiago. Much appreciation and love sent your way.’

She had her eyebrows filled in by Tiàgo Sampaio who does Micropigmentation on brows.

The Medical esthetician is called the ‘Eyebrow King.’

‘Today I had the pleasure to meet @theshando and I was able to enhance her eyebrows shape ! Thank you for trusting us ❤️,’ he wrote on Instagram.

The procedure is called ‘Eyebrow Micropigmentation.’

According to Vargas Face And Skin, ‘Micropigmentation uses small dots of pigments, similar to the technique used in traditional tattooing. The doctor uses either a standard tattoo gun or a pen-like instrument to inject the pigment into the middle layer of the skin.

‘The pigment dots are buildable, which means that some parts of your brows can appear a bit darker. This allows you to achieve ombre brows where the tails are darker than the head part.

‘Also, you can have this procedure done on other parts of the body. Micropigmentation of the scalp, eyeliner, and brows is popular amongst people with congenital hair growth problems.’

On the website it explains what is done.

‘The procedure is called Eyebrow Micropigmentation; it only reaches the superficial layers of the skin. Customers report little to no pain, though a topical anesthetic is used. It lasts about 12 to 18 months depending on the care, customer habits and skin types. The drawing is done in accordance to the person’s natural eyebrow shape and color of skin and hair and the procedure takes approximately an hour and a half to complete.

‘Investment: $1500 (Los Angeles/ Boston), $1000 (Miami) including the one month touchup which is scheduled after the first visit. Touchups go from 450$ to 750$ depending on how long ago the previous procedure was done (Investment varies depending on the city). Touchups after 2 years will be charged full price.’

This come after Shannen accused SAG-AFTRA of canceling her union health insurance amid her battle with stage four metastatic breast cancer.

The organization’s website reveals: ‘You must earn $26,470 in your Base Earnings Period to receive Earned Eligibility for Active Plan health coverage.’

In a scathing new Instagram post Shannen took aim at both SAG-AFTRA in general and its president Fran Drescher, who is herself a cancer survivor and has described herself as an ‘anti-capitalist.’

Tagging Fran, Shannen wrote: ‘im curious for people like me who have worked since they were 10 and paid dues to @sagaftra how when we aren’t able to work for health reasons why our union abandons us.’ 

Shannon, who shot to international fame on Beverly Hills, 90210, added: ‘I think we can do better for all our members and I think you’re person to do it.’

DailyMail.com has reached out to SAG-AFTRA and representatives for Fran Drescher for comment.

She argued: ‘Health insurance shouldn’t be based on annual income. It’s a lifetime contribution. And for me and many others, we have paid a lifetime of dues to only be canceled because we don’t meet your current criteria. Not ok.’

The message was accompanied by a selfie of Shannen wearing a stern expression while hooked up to an intravenous drip. 

Fran was elected president of SAG-AFTRA in 2021 after telling Deadline she would ameliorate the ‘dysfunctional division in this union.’ 

Since her heyday in the 1990s on The Nanny, she has taken up the cudgel for a variety of causes including early detection of cancer.

She herself suffered from uterine cancer in 2000s but was able to beat her illness into remission, where it has remained ever since. 

Following her recovery, she published a memoir called Cancer Schmancer and then founded a nonprofit of the same name.

The Cancer Schmancer Movement was launched with the goal of seeing to it that as many women as possible could get their cancers detected in stage one.

Shannen was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 and has candidly let her fans in on the grueling experience of treatment.

After undergoing a single mastectomy, she went through radiation and chemotherapy, and eventually in 2017 the cancer went into remission. 

While she wrote that the development was ‘good news,’ she reminded her public: ‘The next five years is crucial. Reoccurrences happen all the time.’

She announced in February 2020 that the cancer was back and – in ‘a bitter pill to swallow in a lot of ways’ – had advanced to stage four.

‘I don’t think I’ve processed it,’ Shannen confessed on Good Morning America. ‘I definitely have days where I say: “Why me?”‘

The Charmed star shared: ‘And then I go: “Well, why not me? Who else? Who else beside me deserves this?” None of us do.’ 

Shannen, who is married to photographer Kurt Iswarienko, said her ‘first reaction is always concern about how – how am I going to tell my mom, my husband.’
