Katie Price went under the knife for a face lift recently, but revealed she very nearly had a different procedure after surgeons thought she had asked for something else
Katie Price admits she “can’t smile” after going under the knife again. The 47-year-old jetted off to Turkey at the weekend for a face lift.
She told fans she wanted the procedure because she had wrinkles under her eyes when she smiled and had scar tissue under her nose. After the procedure the former glamour model was reportedly spotted in a hotel lobby with her face bandaged up.
Now on The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie explained an unexpected side effect of the cosmetic surgery. She said: “I heal really well, that’s one thing, so when I smile, I can’t really smile at the minute.”
Katie however says her latest procedure almost went wrong as surgeons misunderstood what she wanted. She added: “They thought I wanted a back lift.
“I went, ‘No, I don’t want a back lift’. I said, ‘Lucky you said that, no’. They were going to do me a back lift because that’s what they thought I said.”
Katie’s latest surgery comes after she reportedly spent £10,000 on a face earlier this year. She is said to have had a string of procedures, including a lip lift correction, brow lift, and a new eye lift as part of her ongoing transformation.
The mum-of-five has been open about her “addiction” to surgery. She is even said to have clashed with her family members as they warn her off more treatment.
Daughter Princess, 18, has previously lamented Katie’s decision to get more surgery. Princess says her mum was “so pretty” before she started getting cosmetic procedures.
During an appearance on Katie’s reality show, the model asked her daughter if she’d ever have her lips done. Princess replied: “I want to say no, like you know how much surgery you’ve had… Can your body actually move? Because you stretch so much skin.”
Katie told her: “More surgery to come! Put it this way, when I’m 90 I’ll probably be transparent – you’ll see all my veins.”
The teen responded: “It’s your body and your choice, I don’t have a problem with plastic surgery. But I think some people are so naturally pretty that they don’t actually need it. You were naturally pretty.”
According to the Mirror, Katie is reported to have had hundreds of operations and aesthetic treatments over the years. Earlier this year she is said to have treated herself to a Brazilian bum lift, claiming she was fixing a previous procedure.
She has previously said her desire for surgery is because of “body dysmorphia”.She explained: “I don’t ever look in the mirror and think I look good. I never have done. So, there’s obviously an underlying issue.”
She also says she is a fan of the “plastic look”. She has previously attempted to kick her surgery “addiction” by taking up health and fitness.
She said: “I’ve started the gym, and when I start the gym, I get addicted. So I know that if I eat rubbish food, or alcohol, or anything like that – it’s bad. I’m on a mission to get fit, healthy, and obsessed and addicted to fitness now.”
“I want to be addicted to fitness rather than surgery,” she declared, adding that being a Gemini, she unfortunately has an addictive personality.
