CH4 Surgery Lad With Sore Boner Says New Brows Hurt More

Story ByAngjela TrajkovskaSub EditorJoseph GolderAgencyCentral European News

This plastic surgery-obsessed Channel 4 reality TV star – who once suffered priapism, a painful and persistent erection, during a nose job – says his eyebrow transplant was even more painful.

Neven Ciganovic, 49, who recently appeared on Channel 4’s Plastic & Proud reality TV show, says he underwent the operation on his eyebrows in Turkey’s biggest city of Istanbul.

Neven, from the Croatian capital city of Zagreb, has had multiple operations in his bid to retain and enhance his youthful square-jawed looks.

He made international headlines when he was diagnosed with priapism, a persistent and painful erection of the penis, while undergoing a nose job in Iran.

But he said his most painful experience – by far – was his eyebrow transplant which involves having hair transplanted to thicken his own brows.

Neven said: “Eyebrow transplantation, that was catastrophe, not only the transplantation but the local anaesthesia was terribly painful.”

He was the star of an episode of Plastic & Proud entitled ‘I’ll Never Get Old’ which was filmed two years ago.

Neven said then: “I just want to stop this ageing. This is my goal I still want to look 47 forever.”

He had his first surgical treatment, a lip job, at the age of 22 and has since had work done on his nose, cheekbones and chin, as well as his eyebrows.

Friends say he was actually a shy boy as a youngster but he admits he has grown up to become obsessed with his appearance.

He said: “When I was in high school, I decided to lose weight and I became anorexic and bulimic. I became very obsessed with how I looked at that time.”

Nevan regularly shows off his looks with his army of more than 26,300 followers on Instagram but his pictures often divide opinion.

Netizen ‘NS Big boy’ commented: “What does he look like? Not like a man, as if he is a wax figure”, while ‘KATA’ added: “I am scared of his looks.”

But others are clearly fans of the Croatian’s dedication to his appearance, such as ‘jeremyforse’ who said: “God, why are you so damn perfect.”
