Portia De Rossi Plastic Surgery Timeline

Portia de Rossi was already in the tabloids in 2013 when speculation arose that she had undergone plastic surgery despite her age because the actress managed to stay young. There were rumors that the actress had undergone various types of surgery, as her appearance in pictures is constantly changing. Let’s go through the different types of surgeries Portia is said to have undergone:

Botox Injection: This is a procedure performed to remove age lines, and now it’s obvious the actress shows no signs of aging as she does in her age group.
Nose Job: Portia also joined the never-ending list of celebrities who have gone under the knife to change the shape of her nose to make it look more balanced. The actress, who used to have a downward-facing nose, now has a straight nose that can only be achieved through surgery.
Eyelid Enhancement: This procedure is performed to correct imperfections around the eyes and results in larger and wider eyes by removing excess skin on the lower and upper eyelids.
Lip Surgery: Most celebrities are currently obsessed with having fuller lips, so they need to use lip fillers to change the appearance of their lips. When Portia entered the entertainment industry many years ago, her lips didn’t seem so full, and the only way for her to have changed so much is to work on them.
