If you've poked around in any online beauty spaces in recent years, you've probably come across the phrase, "you're not ugly, you're just broke." It's a flippant reminder that the level of beauty in Hollywood is often thanks to the money, time, and privilege that celebs have at their disposal.
Here are 11 celebs who revealed how much money they spent on cosmetic procedures:
1. In December 2024, Love Is Blind star Jimmy Presnell had a hair transplant. On TikTok, he said, "I didn't want to try to have a hairline of a 17 or 18-year-old. It's not realistic. I wanted to look my age and have thicker, healthier-looking hair. That's the goal here." He continued to update his followers on his recovery, including revealing how much it cost.
In another video, he said, "I have mentioned I decided to stay in the states for my procedure, which, typically is a little bit more expensive to do, but there's a lot of things that come with that, and I'll explain that as well. But I went to Solve Clinics in River North, Chicago. They charge roughly $5 a graft. I had a little over 2,000 grafts, I think 21 or 2,200. So roughly 10, 11 grand for the procedure. As far as follow-up costs and ongoing costs, those are all optional. I have been doing PRP [injections], which I've made some videos on that and what that kind of entails, and those typically run anywhere from $400 to $600. Every clinic does have different prices."
2. In 2023, Sharon Osbourne told the Telegraph, "I've had a string of cosmetic procedures beginning with a browlift and facelift. I had liposuction on my neck and had it lifted, too. I had my breasts lifted, my arms lipo-ed, and my tummy tucked. I had my bum lifted and implants inserted. Then I had a facelift three and a half years ago. I was left with one eye higher than the other. It took a year to put it all right. Last December, I resorted to injecting myself once a week with Ozempic... I've had enough. I've given up on all interventions. Anyway, I couldn't have much more facial surgery because there's not that much skin left to stretch, pull, cut. And I won't have any more fillers or Botox... Well, I haven't kept a running total, but it must top more than a million."
3. Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham has reportedly gotten three breast augmentations, a rhinoplasty, a chin implant (which she later removed), butt injections, and a vaginal rejuvenation procedure. In 2025, she reportedly told the Daily Mail, "I mean, my mouth is $50,000... This whole thing, I mean, gosh, my boyfriends really get a deal hanging out with me because it's, like, a million-dollar body straight up... I would say, yeah, like hundreds of thousands of dollars and not just on my looks, but on my mental health, my wellness, my happiness, my confidence. So, investing in yourself internally really pays off and getting sleep and rest."
She also said, "I don't ever feel like I need anything, but it is preventative. I would rather do things younger so I can bounce back and heal and recover than later when it's all stretched out, it's more money, it's more recovery time."
4. At the 2024 GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo Siwa told BuzzFeed that the most expensive thing she was wearing was her teeth. She said, "These motherfuckers cost me 50 grand."
5. On a 2025 episode of the podcast We Might Be Drunk, Joel McHale revealed that he spent $10,000 on four hair transplants. His LA-based surgeon used the "strip" method, where a strip of hair-bearing scalp is harvested from your head, dissected into smaller grafts, and transplanted where you want hair to grow. Joel said, "Painful. Don't do a strip... Do plucking. Now they pluck it from the whole back section, and it's a miracle."
6. Former college basketball players-turned-influencers Hanna and Haley Cavinder got breast implants together in 2025. In a follow-up TikTok, they said they got Motiva implants under the muscle. Hanna said, "Pricing, we paid roughly between $8,000 to $9,000, so I feel like that's, like, pretty common for, like, this surgery."
7. When reality star and TV presenter Olivia Attwood was 20, she spent £4,000 of her own savings on breast implants, despite her mom's insistence that she didn't need them. In 2024, Olivia told the Times, "Mum and Dad weren't going to give me a penny towards that... Mum would say you can't have everything. That's not how life works. But I was fixated, and it was cheap and quick."
Life with her new boobs wasn't what she'd imagined. She continued, "What actually happened was I never didn't wear a bra because these bloody boobs were so heavy. I was happy for a year, then I realized they didn't look right for my frame. The weight of the implants started to stretch my skin, and they got lower and lower. I started to think, 'This isn't what I signed up for at all.'" So, six years after her initial surgery, she went to a new surgeon who gave her a 50 percent reduction. She advised other women considering a breast augmentation, "Don't do the most to get your money's worth."
8. On a 2025 episode of her podcast Skye and Callum, Big Brother Australia star Skye Wheatley said that, after her first stint on reality TV, she went through an Australian company to get a boob job in Thailand, where the procedure is "cheaper." She said, "That was a massive disaster. I had ended up getting double bubble, so I had, like, a massive lump... I literally had three boobs, actually.... Then I had my nose, and then I fell pregnant with Forest and Bear, had the babies, got my boobs done again — so, a boob revision... [with a] new surgeon here in Australia. And I've had, like, heaps of filler, botox, skin treatments, like skin boosters, profhilo..."
She also had a treatment from "a machine that helps with ab separation" that helped "tighten up" where her abs had "come apart" when she had her babies. She continued, "And then there's also, like, laser treatments, but the main ones have been the rhinoplasty, the breast revision, the fox eye. I also got a...blepharoplasty, where they, like, cut the skin and sew it together, like, the saggy eyelid skin... Honestly, I would say all up [it cost] maybe $200,000... If we're going off my life, I'm going to say $500,000."
9. TLC reality stars Darcey and Stacey Silva (who've appeared on multiple shows in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise) "have a good doctor in Turkey," where they travel for cosmetic surgery. In 2022, on The Sarah Fraser Show, Darcey said, "We get good deals. We made friends. We made friends with them. The doctor loves us." Stacey added, "It's, like, a whole, like, five-star service package. Like, there, you go; they pick you up from the airport. The nurses take care of you 24 hours a day. You're staying in a villa with, like, five-star amenities. They feed you... It was, like, all-inclusive."
They felt "very safe" because they "researched" and talked with the people at the clinic beforehand. Darcey even said she had a better experience getting cosmetic surgery in Turkey than in Miami. Going back to how much they'd spent on cosmetic work combined, she said, "I mean, if you had to add it all up, it would probably be at least half a mil... but it doesn't mean we had to pay full price, you know."
10. In 2025, author/influencer Sandra Lena Silverman told People that she's spent around $300,000 on more than 25 cosmetic procedures. She said she regretted her Y lift (face sculpting using filler) and liposuctioning her knees. However, she was especially happy with her mini facelift, permanent makeup, and mini tummy tuck.
11. And finally, in a 2023 post on her blog House of Holly, Geordie Shore star Holly Hagan-Blyth said that, inspired by Katie Price, she started getting cosmetic work done at 18. She spent an estimated £30,000 on a boob job, a breast reduction, three BBLs, lip filler, and Botox. However, she regretted getting work done and decided to stop after her breast reduction in 2019. She wrote, "I would sit at night and be like, 'Well, I'm thousands of pounds down. I look ten times worse than I did to begin with because that, to me, is not an ass you would pay for.'"
The online bullying and body-shaming she faced took a serious toll on her. In a previous Instagram post, she said, "I have always just said surgery generically because I never wanted anyone to go and copy what I did and be left unhappy, especially after learning how dangerous the procedure actually is. As much as I tried to hide it, it was pretty noticeable, and instead, the comments just went from 'fat slag' to 'too much surgery she looked better before' overnight."
