In 2018, Simon Cowell owned up about botox injections and fillers and reportedly got a 21st-century facelift, which is also known as Silhouette Soft Lift. The renowned figure told The Sun about the pros and cons of getting a facelift and emphasized other options available to get a younger look. Cowell said:

“There’s lots of things you can do now… It hurts like hell, but it gets rid of sun damage and unplugs all the crap. For me now, it’s all about having clean skin.”

However, in 2022, Simon Cowell seemed to be regretting getting these procedures done, as he mentioned looking unrecognizable at a point. During the Nickelodeon 2022 Kids’ Choice Awards, Cowell expressed decisiveness about cosmetic procedures and stated it makes him look “like something out of a horror film.”

“There was a stage where I might have gone a bit too far. I saw a picture of me from ‘before’ the other day, and didn’t recognize it as me first of all.”

Not only was Simon Cowell startled by his appearance, but also his son “was in hysterics.” The Britain’s Got Talent judge earlier mentioned having such a procedure for a clear skin, but also advised being cautious of its side effects. The filming of his show’s new series has begun, and Cowell hasn’t spoken about his appearance lately.
