Sharon Osborne shared her decision to leave plastic surgery behind when speaking to The Sun, after her last facelift left her feeling like a “Cyclops.”
“I’m telling you, it was horrendous,” Osborne previously said of the operation. “”I looked like a f****ing Cyclops. I’m like, All I need is a hunchback.”
According to her, the full-facelift she had in October of 2019 left her in significant pain and with one eye looking different from the other. Her husband, Ozzy Osborne, even offered to have another surgery scheduled for the mistakes to be corrected.
Despite a positive history with plastic surgery, she has chosen to remain with the face she has. “That one put me off and it frightens me,” Osborne says. “I really f***ing pushed it with the last facelift and I am now like, no more.”
This would mark the end of a decades-long relationship with cosmetic procedures, which she discusses in her autobiography, Unbreakable, in 2013. “There’s not much I haven’t had tweaked, stretched, peeled, lasered, veneered, enhanced or removed altogether,” she writes.
Osborne, 70, believes that she is too old to continue this kind of treatment. “Time is against me, I cannot have another facelift,” she says.
This is not the belief of most plastic surgeons who perform operations like facelifts. According to them, there is no maximum age to cosmetic surgery. Additionally, there are treatments, like the lasers and peels Osborne mentions, that can continue to provide skin benefits no matter your age.
Osborne’s choice to walk away from plastic surgery coincides with her transitioning temporarily to active caretaker role for her husband. Ozzy Osborne, 74, not only caught COVID-19 last year, but is also recovering from a spinal injury that caused an early retirement from touring.
She will return to television this week to cover King Charles’ Coronation, and in the rebooted reality television series that follows her family, The Osbornes, which will premier later this year.
