Kate Beckinsale says chatter about her getting cosmetic procedures is much ado about nothing. In a recent Instagram post, the Underworld actor celebrated her pastel green bodysuit on the Cannes red carpet and reflected on her various experiences at the festival, writing, “At the Pot au Feu premiere, 76th Cannes Festival in my dream dress -remembering my first time on these steps 30 years ago in scuffed steel toe capped Dr Martens. Both magical 💚.”
But bringing up her decades of stardom got commenters speculating on whether she’s had “work” done on her face over the years, which Beckinsale emphatically denied.
“Please tell me you had a facelift because it’s not possible to be this gorgeous at 50,” wrote one fan, to which the actor replied, “no threads no thread lift no Botox no laser no nose job no filler.” Thankfully, she did reveal what skin care practices she uses to achieve her movie star glow: “I do have facials with prp to boost collagen and micro current for skin tightening and oxygen.”

Another commenter chimed in, “Lol why do Celebrities have to deny their face procedures?” per Page Six, prompting Beckinsale to double down: “I haven’t had a facelift or filler or Botox. I’m not lying and I don’t have to accept people accusing me of things I haven’t done.” A point was made! Speculation about cosmetic treatments is one thing, jabs at someone’s honesty is another.
Deeper into the comments, Kate Beckinsale denied using “fillers,” and told a commenter who brought up Botox: “I actually can’t I have a condition called mast cell activation syndrome which is actually a massive daily struggle and means I react to hundreds of things badly…Can’t take the risk.”
