Martha Stewart has never been shy about dispelling plastic surgery rumors, and she’s shutting them down yet again\u2026 with some caveats.<\/p>\n
In a new interview with People,<\/em> the iconic entrepreneur credits her glowing skin to a healthy lifestyle and quality skin care, but she acknowledges that people have been curious about whether she’s undergone any plastic surgery.<\/p>\n “Everybody insists that I’ve had plastic surgery and I have not ever had plastic surgery,” she told the magazine. \u201cI’m the most honest person on earth\u2014but if they won’t take my word for it, I don’t know. How can they not take my word for it? That’s the truth!\u201d Stewart denies she’s gone under the knife for cosmetic purposes, but she did<\/em> admit that she has seen a plastic surgeon before\u2014for a reconstructive procedure, she says.<\/p>\n According to the entrepreneur, the incident happened about 10 years ago; she was on her way to the Today<\/em> show around 11 p.m. during a blizzard and was going to kiss one of her dogs goodbye before she left. \u201cI put my head down to one of my French bulldogs and I frightened her and she bolted up,\u201d Stewart shared. The dog didn’t bite her, but instead \u201cbashed\u201d her lip into her tooth and split it \u201calmost all the way to my nose.\u201d<\/p>\n Instead of heading to the Today<\/em> set, she went to the surgeon’s office. (She pointed out that this was the \u201conly time I’ve ever missed an appearance.”) “I get to the hospital and I think they did 16 stitches in my lip,” she told People.<\/em> Stewart added that she doesn’t consider this plastic surgery in the traditional sense, but rather a \u201crepair.\u201d The procedure was a success, as Stewart says you \u201ccannot see\u201d any evidence of the incident. \u201cI healed so well. That is the extent of a plastic surgeon working on my face,” she said. “That is the only time I’ve ever had a plastic surgeon touch my face.\u201d<\/p>\n This is far from the first time Stewart has commented on her aesthetic practices. Back in 2024, Stewart had her dermatologist, Dan Belkin, MD, on her podcast and the two shared a comprehensive overview of what the star says she’s had done: some strategic Botox and fillers, lasers, and skin-tightening treatments like Sofwave. She’s also said she’s not a huge fan of facial Botox, but doesn’t mind it on the lower face and neck. Whether or not you take these celebrity confessions at face value, there’s no denying Stewart looks great\u2014and we’ll have whatever she says she’s having when we’re 84 years old!<\/p>\n More beauty news:<\/strong><\/p>\n Now, watch Martha get ready for her day:<\/strong><\/p>\n Follow<\/em> Allure on<\/em>\u00a0Instagram<\/em> and<\/em>\u00a0TikTok, or<\/em>\u00a0subscribe to our newsletter<\/em> to stay up to date on all things beauty.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
