Michelle Pfeiffer

Has Michelle Pfeiffer Had Cosmetic Surgery?

Are Michelle Pfeiffer’s natural good looks due to genetics or is this another case of celebrity plastic surgery?

The five foot, seven and a half inch leggy blonde is as well known for her stunning physical features such as her trademark husky voice, eyes shaped like a cat and full lips as her numerous acting credits.

Born on April 29, 1958, Pfeiffer is as famous for her outspoken personality. The actress from Santa Anta, California native has starred in numerous films including I Am Sam, What Lies Beneath, The Deep End of the Ocean, Dangerous Liaisons and Wolf.

Michelle Pfeiffer: “A Little Here and There…”

In a recent edition of Elle magazine the actress is quoted as saying, “I’m all for a little here and there — fine. It doesn’t matter to me if people have plastic surgery or they don’t, or if they do Botox,” she told the mag.

“But when people don’t look themselves anymore, that’s when you go, ‘Oooh,’ and it’s kind of sad. It’s uncomfortable for us but if they’re happy with what they see in the mirror, does it matter?”

But has Michelle Pfeiffer herself had plastic surgery?

The Case For Rhinoplasty

This option is especially likely after rhinoplasty became more socially acceptable following Michael Jackson’s cosmetic surgery.

When examining plastic surgery before and after pictures, Pfeiffer’s nose is noticeably thinner in the latter portion of her career. Pfeiffer herself, however, denies ever having had rhinoplasty and you could never describe as awful plastic surgery.

The Case For Cheek Implants

Comparing photos of Pfeiffer in the middle part of her career to earlier photos, suggests she may have had cheek implants.

Further supporting this belief is that her cheeks have not been subject to normal sagging that comes with aging. Again, however, Pfeiffer denies having had cheek implants.

The Case For Fillers and Botox

While collagen could have been used to fill in her famous, full lips, the actress’ lips have not changed dramatically throughout her long acting career, predating the use of fillers such as collagen.

However, enhancements may have been completed, as lips thin with age.

Pfeiffer’s wrinkle free forehead and quoted openness to fillers such as Botox suggest she may have had Botox injections in this area.

The Case For A Facelift

The actress denies having a facelift, but suggests she is open to this procedure in the future.

Her lack of wrinkles for her age suggests she may have had a mini-facelift (see also natural facelift without surgery) and/or fillers to maintain a wrinkle-free appearance.

It would not be unusual for stars to maintain a youthful appearance with non-surgical options such as Thermage and chemical peels, even if she has not had a facelift per se.

The Case For Breast Augmentation

It is obvious that Michelle Pfeiffer has not had any breast augmentation work done. Her breasts are small and have not undergone any significant change in size or shape since early in her career.

Michelle Pfeiffer: Before & After Plastic Surgery?

If actress Michelle Pfeiffer has had work done, it is natural and enhances, rather than detracts, from her overall personna, which is of a beautiful actress, aging well.

Any surgery she has had done is subtle, in contrast to more dramatic celebrity cosmetic surgery as the many obvious and admitted operations completed in the case of Joan River’s plastic surgery.
