Michelle Visage thinks plastic surgery can be a "very scary thing" to consider after having her own breast reduction.
Michelle Visage thinks plastic surgery can be a "very scary thing" to consider.
The 56-year-old star had her own breast implants removed in 2019 and, as the host of Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind, she is now dealing with celebrity influencers who regret their own decisions to go under the knife.
She told E! News: "I think there's people in this show, in this house, that were considering this, and it's a very scary thing. And Dr Dubrow can tell you how he's gonna do it, but he didn't actually have breast implants removed, and I have walked that walk.
"It is a perfect fit because I have been there and I love all these people in the house, and it just felt like the right thing for me."
The RuPaul's Drag Race judge is completely on board with the "trend" of opening up about plastic surgery regrets, and is hopeful that her efforts will stop the younger generations from being so quick to alter their appearance.
She said: "I love that that trend is happening now because plastic surgery regret is a real, actual thing. And the more that we talk about it, the more that the next generation can see 'Oh, maybe I'm gonna hold off and wait...' because I'm telling you - what you get at 21 or 22 is totally different at 46 or 56."
However, Michelle noted that some participants in the reality show have to weigh up a reversal of their plastic surgery even though they "make a living" from how they look.
She added: "I think all of them knew what they have done but a lot of them had concerns of 'If I change this...' For example, Larissa and Sophia make their money with it. So they were afraid if they go smaller then they might not make as much money as they do for a living. Hollywood is no joke, man!"
