From Blake Lively’s seemingly slimmed-down nose to Cheryl Fernandez-Versini’s perfectly aligned pearly whites, there’s a slew of A-listers who have long been rumoured to have had subtle surgery to help refine their natural good looks.

And while you may not notice it at first glance, upon closer inspection, we can’t help but wonder whether a subtle surgical procedure could have sculpted these celebrities’ faces.

To get more insight into what these celebrities may have had done, Woman’s Day spoke to plastic surgeon Dr James Southwell-Keely, who has not treated these people but has years of experience in the field.

The year was 2005 and a young Blake Lively (L) was making her mark on the small screen – but fast forward a few years, and the actress’ nose seems to look different. Dr James Southwell-Keely believes Blake has “definitely” had a nose job. “Her nose is less broad through the middle and less bulbous at the tip,” he says.

Queen Bey, pictured in 2000 on the left and 2016 on the right, has changed up her look plenty of times over the years, but some fans have wondered whether a nose job could have played a part in her transformation. According to Dr Southwell-Keely, the singer has had a “nose job with gentle refinements.”

Angelina Jolie is often praised for keeping it real but our expert believes the mother-of-six has undergone a “nose job and subtle refinements.”

In 2006, Nicole Richie (L) sported a much smaller bust compared to now (R).

“Nicole has had a subtle boob job and a really nice nose job bringing balance to her nose and face,” Dr Southwell-Keely claims.

“Her youthful nose is too long and too wide for her face. Her adult nose is more refined yet far from perfect – there looks to be a gentle C-shaped deformity with a persistently wide mid-vault and a poorly defined tip,” Dr Southwell-Keely says of Jennifer Aniston’s changing face.

In 1982 (L) John Travolta was Hollywood’s biggest heartthrob, nowadays, aged 61, the Grease star’s face is very wrinkle-free for a man his age. According to Dr Southwell-Kewly, the actor’s raised hairline indicates a “micro-follicular hair transplantation to conceal a receding hairline or a frontal eyebrow lift”.

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini’s smile has rapidly changed since 2001 (L) and her nose also appears to have narrowed. Dr Southwell-Keely says the singer has has veneers and claims a nose job may also have been involved.

Dr Southwell-Keely believes Ashlee Simpson has had a nose job, which “gives her face a wonderful balance.” The plastic surgeon also claims Ashlee may have had a chemical brow lift, Botox and upper lip fillers.

All eyes were on Tom Cruise and his very shiny forehead when he attended the BAFTA Awards in London earlier this year. The 53-year-old, pictured on the left in 2005, hasn’t aged a day over the last decade and our expert believes it’s all thanks to “fillers or a fat transfer to his face.”
