The celebrities who have denied ever having plastic surgery

This week socialite Jocelyn Wildenstein doubled down on her claims that she has never had plastic surgery, becoming the latest in a lengthy line of celebrities to deny going under the knife… despite their ever-changing appearances.  

While some of Hollywood’s most famous stars have been candid about their decision to undergo cosmetic work, others have been far more reluctant to share the secrets behind their transformed looks. 

82-year-old Wildenstein, who has been dubbed Catwoman due to her constantly changing features, has consistently claimed that she has never gone under the knife.

But the Swiss socialite recently made the bizarre accusation that it was actually other people who had Photoshopped her images.

She posted a picture of herself in her teenage years – which also appeared to be slightly altered – as proof that she has never had surgery.

Jocelyn wrote: ‘#tbt that’s me #jocelynwildenstein at ballet classes in Switzerland at 15 years old – so maybe you should stop speculating on my image! Press stop! stop please and stop photoshopping my images because you are all wrong. 

‘Stop posting fake images of me. You will be able to watch the true image of me very soon on screen [sic].’ 

But Jocelyn wouldn’t be the first celebrity to have gone under the knife and deny it. 

From Bella Hadid to Megan Fox, here FEMAIL takes a look at who has hidden the truth about their facial features. 

Bella Hadid insists that her rhinoplasty at aged 14 is the only procedure she has ever undergone

Supermodel Bella Hadid recently revealed that she had a nose job at the age of just 14 – but insisted that rhinoplasty is the only procedure she has ever had done.

She told InStyle in 2018: ‘People think I got all this surgery or did this or that. And you know what? 

‘We can do a scan of my face, darling. I’m scared of putting fillers into my lips. I wouldn’t want to mess up my face.’

But Harley Street surgeon Dr Julian de Silva analyzed photographs of Bella from present day and 10 years ago with his PhiFace computerized mapping technique.

It calculates the symmetry and harmony of facial features such as eyes, lips, nose, chin and general face shape, and noted the scores came out ‘radically different.’

Dr De Silva told MailOnline: ‘To have changes like this is extremely uncommon without some kind of surgical or aesthetic intervention.

‘What we found with the analysis was that the biggest changes in the statistics were always for the nose and the lips. 

‘These are the areas where major improvements and refinements can be made with surgical and non-invasive procedures, and when done well, these can really transform the whole face.’

Despite the allegations levelled against her the 26-year-old, who is half-Dutch and half-Palestinian (pictured in 2022), continued to insist that her nose job was the only tweak she has made

She told Vogue in 2022: ‘People think I fully f***ed with my face because of one picture of me as a teenager looking puffy. I’m pretty sure you don’t look the same now as you did at 13, right?

‘I have never used filler. Let’s just put an end to that. I have no issue with it, but it’s not for me. 

‘Whoever thinks I’ve gotten my eyes lifted or whatever it’s called – it’s face tape! The oldest trick in the book.’

Kylie Jenner initially denied getting lip filler but later revealed she did so after a boy mocked her kissing skills

Kylie first started to look different in 2014, when aged 17, she debuted her plumped pout – but denied that she had fillers.

During her late teen years, Kylie’s face and body continued to transform with some plastic surgeons speculating that she had also had a nose job, boob job and liposuction.

But Kylie hit out at the accusations and denied having any major surgery.

The TV star did concede, however, that she had been using fillers and revealed that she did so after being mocked for her kissing skills.

Kylie Jenner’s changing appearance over the years continues to remain a hot topic (pictured left, in 2010 and right, last month)

Speaking on the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reunion show, the beauty mogul mused: ‘My love for makeup started with my insecurity with my lips. And I didn’t ever think about it until I had one of my first kisses.’

She recalled: ‘A guy said to me, ‘Oh, my God, you’re such a good kisser, but you have such small lips,’ or something like that. And then, from then… from then on, I felt… unkissable.’

Kylie continued: ‘I took that really hard. Just when a guy you like says that, I don’t know, it just really affected me.

‘I just didn’t feel desirable or pretty. I really wanted bigger lips. I would overline my lips with lip liner just to create the illusion of bigger lips.

‘And then finally I was like ‘this lip liner isn’t doing it’, and I ended up getting my lips done.’

Despite being affected by the incident at the time, Kylie admitted she can laugh at the debacle now, joking that she should name one of her famous lip kits after the boy who mocked her. 

Megan Fox attempted to dispel surgery rumors with a photo album titled ‘Things You Can’t Do with Your Face when You Have Botox’

Fans of brunette beauty Megan Fox started to speculate that she had succumbed to plastic surgery or injections after seeing her on the red carpet looking waxy-faced and with plumper lips.

And the rumors did not go unnoticed by the Transformers star herself. 

In an interview with Allure in 2010 – one of the few times Megan addressed the claims – she did not hold back.

‘I will say for people who question the authenticity of my lips, you can clearly see that my lips are my lips,’ she told the news publication at the time.

But the statement did little to quell the accusations and, the following year, the actress was so exasperated that she uploaded a series of images to Facebook in an album entitled ‘Things You Can’t Do with Your Face when You Have Botox.’

The star attempted to prove that her forehead muscles are not frozen by pulling an number of facial expressions.

Unfortunately for Megan, in March 2022, she was spotted making a late-night visit to the Diamond Face Institute’s surgical center in Beverly Hills which did little to back up her claims. 

The Diamond Face Institute is aimed at giving patients ‘a more youthful, natural-looking appearance’ via a wide-range of surgical and non-surgical facial procedures.

Dr. Jason B. Diamond is a double board-certified plastic surgeon and performs everything from facelifts – that can cost upwards of $75,000, according to THR – to dermal fillers like lip injections, Botox, etc.

Tori Spelling claims the change in her appearance is all thanks to the right makeup

In 2019, actress Tori Spelling, now 49, admitted to previously getting her ‘nose and boobs done’ to People magazine.

But in 2021, speculation started to arise that the actress had received more cosmetic surgeries after people started to brand her as ‘unrecognizable.’

However, Tori insisted that she had nothing else done and that the change in her appearance was thanks to a change to her new makeup artist and a new cellular regeneration therapy.

‘First of all, I have an amazing makeup artist now,’ she explained of her facial transformation during an appearance on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy’s Jeff Lewis Live.

‘Her name is Hailey Hoff and with contour and she does makeup like no one else. And my face, I look completely different. I look like I’ve had a nose job. Like, it’s straight now. But it’s all contouring.’

In addition to contouring, the mother-of-five also credits her facial change on exosome therapy, a type of regenerative medicine treatment that can improve signaling between cells, reduce inflammation, cause cells to regenerate, and modify the body’s immune response when it’s not healthy, according to Right Path Pain & Spine Centers.

‘It could be the exosomes, too, because they said my skin looks flawless, so maybe I’m looking younger,’ Spelling said. ‘They said I looked Snooki’s age. She’s 33. I’m like, ‘I’ll take that.’

‘It’s exosomes, I’m telling you,’ Lewis responded before adding, ‘It is the fountain of youth.’

Even so, a plastic surgeon told Page Six at the time that he was definitely convinced she had gone back under the knife.

‘She definitely did her nose again, 100 per cent,’ plastic surgeon Ramtin Kassir told the outlet.

He also theorized she had a face lift due to her ‘clean, tight, and rejuvenated’ jaw line, as well as an eyebrow lift.

‘When looking at her before picture, you don’t see her nice, defined lines that you see with her now,’ he explained. ‘I’m just going by what I’m seeing [in the photos]. 

‘She’s probably working out and in great shape, too, so that all helps, but she’s definitely had some things done to her face.’

Mariah Carey was accused of concealing her cosmetic procedures by using her former assistant’s AMEX card

Singer Mariah Carey, 53, has frequently denied having cosmetic procedures to both her face and body.

Speaking about her noticeably slimmed down figure in 2008, she instead credited her new physique is a result of diet and exercise.

She told Digital Spy at the time: ‘I know [people are] freaking out that I had some crazy plastic surgery done, but… honestly, it’s working out and diet. Look at what I’m eating right now – olives!’

She added: ‘It makes me upset that people think I’ve had surgery, ’cause let’s discuss how annoying the dieting process was.’

But despite her recurring rebuttals, in 2019 Mariah Carey was accused of using her ex assistant Lianna Shakhnazaryan’s AMEX card to pay for and conceal various cosmetic procedures.

DailyMail.com exclusively obtained court documents where Shakhnazaryan alleged that her former boss requested to use credit cards registered to her name on surgical treatments.

One invoice was for a total of $32,765, and included PLLA buttock filler injections, a LipoFreeze fat-melting laser treatment to her upper breasts and an firming ultrasound procedure to her neck and jawline.

A separate bill, paid for using Shakhnazaryan’s own AMEX, totaled $7,915 and was for a vShape tightening radio-frequency treatment to the thighs.

Additionally, Page Six previously reported that Carey (pictured in 2019) underwent a 'gastric sleeve' procedure for weight loss

While Carey has previously denied having surgery, invoices indicate at least six cosmetic procedures were paid for.

Additionally, in 2017 Page Six reported that Carey underwent a ‘gastric sleeve’ procedure for weight loss.

A source told the outlet: ‘Mariah has always been proud of her curves, but this summer, as her Caesars Palace residency came to a close, and then she went on tour with Lionel Richie, she noticed it became harder to dance, and she was getting a lot more criticism online from bodyshamers.’

Kim Kardashian has denied that her ever-changing looks are down to any major procedures

Kim Kardashian has long insisted that her ‘shapeshifter’ abilities are nothing more than the result of regular sessions with a dermatologist and ‘a little’ Botox.

But her ever-changing appearance over the years has always been a topic of fierce debate.

Despite vehemently denying for years that she has ever gone under the knife, Kim has faced serious scrutiny from experts and amateurs alike over her transforming face and body – with many claiming that surgery is the only answer to her ever-changing image.

Kim Kardashian (left, in 2006 and right, in 2022) is famous for her flawless appearance, with many fans claiming her looks have been maintained with secret cosmetic procedures over the years

Kim has denied having rhinoplasty for years, spanning back to a 2010 Nightline interview in which she addressed rumors that she has had a nose job.

‘I’ve never had my nose done. But what’s funny is about my nose, it’s my biggest insecurity. I always want to get my nose done,’ she said.

‘I had them take the pictures, he showed me what it would look like, and it just didn’t… I wouldn’t look the same,’ she added.

Six years later, she spoke about the appearance of her nose in a 2016 interview with Wonderland magazine.

‘People think I’ve had my nose done. I haven’t. It does look smaller. Maybe it’s the contour I use,’ she said.

She denied the rumors once again while getting her makeup done by Mario Dedivanovic at a Master Class.

‘I never had my nose done,’ she said. ‘Everyone thought I did, and I said, “Wait until I have kids because your real features come out.”‘

She later attempted to clarify her rather perplexing explanation by tweeting: ‘I said you will see when I have kids, they will have the same nose as me.’

Mario explained that Kim has a ‘small bump on her nose,’ but he uses a contouring technique to hide it.

Back in 2013, leading plastic surgeon, Dr. Roberto Viel of the London Centre of Aesthetic Surgery, believes Kim has more done than she’s letting on.

‘In my opinion Kim Kardashian has had a number of smaller procedures,’ he revealed. ‘It appears she has had a few facial peels and resurfacing treatments, reducing pore size, and improving collagen production and skin condition.

‘Platelet Rejuvenation Therapy is one such treatment that we know she is an advocate of and that would result in these effects.

‘Kim also appears to have had filler to the apples of the cheek, giving a lifted, more youthful appearance to the face. Lastly I feel Kim has had rhinoplasty [nose job].’

Aside from speculation regarding her face, Kim has most famously been accused of achieving her famous backside via unnatural means.

The TV star (left, in 2006 and right, now) denied getting butt implants and even went as far as getting an X-ray on her behind during an early episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians

In 2009, Kim proudly showed off a fuller frame that immediately led to speculation that she had got work done on her voluptuous behind.

The TV star denied getting butt implants and even went as far as getting an X-ray on her behind during an early episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. 

The star attempted to dispel the rumors on season six of the series, with a doctor assuring fans that there was no implant in her buttocks.

Though she’s always claimed that her famous behind is natural, Kim has not denied having a fat transfer from another area to achieve her perfect hourglass shape.

However, her curvaceous backside has inspired a legion of fans to get Brazilian butt lifts, a procedure in which fat from other areas of the body is transferred to the derriere to make it fuller.

She is widely considered the driving force behind the upswing in the procedure in recent years, but she has never admitted to having one.

Back in 2014, Kim told news outlets to ‘get a life’ after reports claimed that the star had gotten butt implants.

She added that any speculation around her changing body is the result of unfairly comparing her to old photos of herself.  

Ashlee Simpson laughed off speculation she had a nose job aged 21 

Ashlee Simpson, who began her career as a back-up dancer, stepped out of the shadow of big sister Jessica in 2004.

And it didn’t take long before the singer and actress was met with a storm of speculation that she underwent a nose job after entering the limelight.

A source reportedly confirmed she had undergone a ‘nipped-and-tucked nose’ in 2006, according to People.

But when confronted with the claims, Ashlee, then aged 21, simply said: ‘Everybody’s already saying it, so I just don’t talk about it. 

‘I’m like, okay, whatever. It doesn’t bother me.’ 

And, when pushed even further, she laughed off the accusations and mysteriously added: ‘Maybe, who knows!’ 

The following year, with whispers still swirling, she appeared to refute the claims once again.

The star (pictured with husband Evan Ross) said: 'I believe if somebody chooses to do plastic surgery, it [should be] for yourself, not for anyone else'

Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, she said: ‘I don’t get bothered by people saying what they say. I’m a happy person, and I’m happy with my looks. Everybody always has an opinion.’

Ashlee did not talk specifically about how she had changed her appearance but did touch upon cosmetic procedures in general.

She said: ‘It’s a personal choice. I believe if somebody chooses to do plastic surgery, it [should be] for yourself, not for anyone else.’
