Internet Users Have Been Speculating That Brad Pitt Has Gotten A Facelift

Over the last year, as the Mr. & Mrs. Smith actor has been re-entering the spotlight and public eye to promote his upcoming projects, the internet has been buzzing about how great he looks. His skin and youthful appearance have been the hot topic on social media platforms like Reddit, where fans have been wondering exactly what he's been doing to look not too different from how he did ten years ago.

 

After pictures of him at the premiere of his latest film, a movie about race car driving, F1, went viral on platforms like Reddit, users began comparing him to other actors in Hollywood, wondering why he looks "better" than them.

 

"Brad got a facelift," speculated one fan, as another wrote that it was a "well-done facelift."

 

Although the heartthrob has not acknowledged whether or not he's gotten a facelift, a large portion of people on the internet think so, with fans and some plastic surgeons making conspiracy videos to boost the rumor mill.

Plastic Surgeons Weigh In On What They Think Brad Has And Hasn't Done To His Face

To get a better idea of what the actor may be doing to keep up his hot guy status in the entertainment industry, three professional and well-known plastic surgeons spoke to The Daily Mail to share their professional opinions on what they believe he's been doing to maintain his youthful looks. And no, it's not a facelift!

 

One of the doctors who spoke to the publication was Dr. Barry Weintraub, a renowned facelift surgeon in New York City, who said it was "clear" how handsome Brad was, but that it was noticeable that his face was "fuller" than it was in the past. He speculated this could be from natural weight gain or a subtle cosmetic treatment.

 

"That would either be from fat transfers or a variety of fillers that were used," he explained. "As you get older, you start to lose volume in your own face...so placing volume back into it is a great way to add youth, and I think that is what was done here."

 

Another expert, Dr. Gary Linkov, another NYC-based plastic surgeon, noted he didn't "see great proof" that the actor "had a facelift."

 

"It is possible that he might have had a fat transfer or filler to the midface," he added, echoing Dr. Weintraub. "I mentioned a few years ago that he may have had that procedure, so it's definitely possible that he did something like that again."

 

Fans and media still await Brad's answer to all of these questions about his great looks, but for now, after hearing these expert opinions, it may be time to cool it on the facelift accusations.
