Overview
- Bellino told People in early August that she had a seven-hour facial rejuvenation earlier this year in Beverly Hills with Dr. John Layke.
- The multi-part operation included a mid/mini-facelift, neck lift, brow lift, upper blepharoplasty and CO2 laser resurfacing to address laugh lines, brows and neck.
- She described the recovery as “brutal,” shared before-and-after photos and recovery snippets on Instagram, and said the experience left her pleased with the results.
- Family members and her husband initially opposed the surgery but attended consultations and later expressed support, and Bellino said she will eventually have her breast implants removed.
- Reporting places Bellino’s choice in a wider pattern of milestone-driven cosmetic work by public figures and suggests continued public debate about elective surgery, recovery and personal agency.
