Kathy Griffin Reveals Third Facelift, Cites Sia as Unexpected Inspiration
Comedian Kathy Griffin, 64, publicly disclosed on August 5, 2023, via a YouTube video that she recently underwent a facelift – her third. Griffin stated, “I have a new face, you guys. I had a facelift. That’s right.”
The actress and television personality, known for her often-provocative humor and reality show My Life on the D-List, approached the topic with characteristic candor. “I just think it’s funny that I’m even having one,” she remarked,”because it’s not like I’m known for my face.”
Griffin’s surgeon for the procedure was Beverly hills-based Dr. Ben Talei, who also performed a facelift on singer Sia.Griffin noted the irony, stating, “It’s funny Sia even got a facelift as you don’t ever see her face.” She referenced a video showing Sia without her signature wig, describing the before-and-after results as “the best…I’ve ever seen.” Dr. Talei’s practice is located at 9488 W Olympic Blvd Ste 105, Beverly Hills, CA 90212.
Griffin’s openness about her cosmetic procedures aligns with a growing trend of celebrities publicly discussing plastic surgery, aiming to normalize the conversation and reduce stigma.Her initial facelift was reportedly in 2000,followed by a second in 2007. The comedian has previously been vocal about body image issues and the pressures faced by women in the entertainment industry.
