Courteney Cox, a celebrity who rose to fame on Friends, earned a place in her audience’s heart because of her timeless beauty and expressive features. As the years passed by, her fans began to speculate that the actress had undergone cosmetic procedures, especially during red carpet appearances in the mid-2010s. Unlike other celebrities, she eventually addressed the rumors and admitted to her surgeries. So, what procedures has she confirmed, and what do experts think? Let’s begin.
Courteney Cox Opens Up About Cosmetic Work
In a rare moment of acceptance, Courteney Cox acknowledged that she went too far with facial fillers. In multiple interviews, she admitted to having non-surgical work done and regretting it later. Featuring in the Gloss Angeles podcast, she explained how the changes happened gradually:
“You don’t realize that you look a little off, so then you keep doing more because you look normal to yourself.”- Courteney Cox
Eventually, she decided to have her fillers dissolved and chose her natural look.
Expert Opinions: What Might She Have Done?
Courteney has never directly admitted to having surgery, but her recent and past appearance suggests a combination of non-invasive treatments. Here’s what experts say:
- Dermal fillers: Several surgeons think she may have used fillers in her cheeks and lips, providing her with an overfilled or puffy look in the earlier years.
- Botox: Experts believe she used Botox for smoother forehead lines and crow’s feet. It is one of the most common treatments among celebrities.
- Laser resurfacing or RF Microneedling: Seeing the refined look, she might have chosen laser resurfacing or other treatments such as RF microneedling.
- No clear evidence of surgery: While some fans believe in a possible facelift, most surgeons think Courteney has avoided going under the knife.
Why did her fillers look so obvious?
Dr. Alberico Sessa, our board-certified cosmetic surgeon at Sarasota Surgical Arts, believes that overuse of fillers can provide smooth or unnatural facial features. This can happen when patients add filler without realizing it’s destroying their original bone structure.
Her Decision to Reverse the Work
In 2017, Courteney told People magazine that she had all her fillers dissolved, saying:
“I feel better because I look like myself. I think that I now look more like the person that I was.”
The takeaway
Cox’s transparency has changed the conversation around cosmetic work in Hollywood. Instead of hiding her procedures, she chose to be open about them and show the side effects of overusing such treatments. Her story is a powerful reminder that overuse of cosmetic surgeries isn’t always better. Moderation is the key when it comes to fillers, Botox, or aesthetic treatments. But, to minimize the risk, always consider selecting a plastic surgeon who can guide you better.
