Simon Cowell has candidly discussed his experiences with cosmetic procedures, admitting that he once went “a bit too far” with fillers. The Britain’s Got Talent judge revealed that he looked so different at one point that even his son, Eric, was in stitches at the sight of him.
In an interview with The Sun, Cowell shared, “I saw a picture of me from ‘before’ the other day and didn’t recognize it as me.” He emphasized that he has since eliminated all fillers from his face, stating, “There is zero filler in my face at all now. Enough was enough.”
Reflecting on the trend of cosmetic enhancements, Cowell noted, “There was a phase where everyone was having their faces pumped full of this and the other.” Now, he believes that focusing on healthy eating and drinking plenty of water has made a significant difference in his appearance.
Cowell has previously acknowledged his overuse of Botox as well, humorously recalling his and fellow judge Amanda Holden’s reactions to old clips of themselves. “I love watching ‘the Botox years’. All of us are like, ‘Christ, we had a lot that year,’” he said.
In 2018, he even underwent a non-surgical facelift, which he described as painful. With his recent revelations, it seems Cowell is embracing a more natural look and prioritizing his health over cosmetic enhancements
