Ricki Lake Spills the Tea on Her Jaw-Dropping Plastic Surgery Makeover!

The 56-year-old TV personality has been making headlines for her incredible weight loss journey, but it seems she's got another major secret up her sleeve - a whopping plastic surgery makeover!

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Ricki dished about her recent facelift and neck lift, revealing that she's finally fixed the pesky skin flapping around her neck after losing 130 pounds.

The 56-year-old Daytime Emmy winner announced on WWHL on Thursday: 'I've had a lower face and neck lift...This is something that was bothering me. I lost a lot of weight and I had this certain [skin] hanging [on my neck]. I had it fixed' (pictured Wednesday)

"I lost a lot of weight and I had this certain [skin] hanging [on my neck]. I had it fixed," Ricki confessed to host Andy Cohen. And boy, is it fixed! The TV star couldn't help but give a shout-out to her "genius" plastic surgeon Dr. Allen Foulad, calling the procedure "the best facelift I've ever seen!"

But don't just take Ricki's word for it - even Andy Cohen was impressed, declaring that he's off to LA to get the same treatment! And when asked about scarring, Ricki assured us that there's barely any visible evidence of her surgical makeover. "You can't see [any] thing. It looks amazing," she gushed.

Ricki's revelation comes just 10 days after another A-list celeb, Kylie Jenner, spilled the beans on her own plastic surgery secrets. The 27-year-old reality star took to TikTok to reveal that she's got a whopping 445 cc of silicone in her breasts - and we can't help but wonder if Ricki will be joining her in the world of bigger-and-better!

Ricki then proved she was no gatekeeper by giving a shout out to 'genius' Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Allen Foulad (pictured in 2018): 'I kind of think it's the best facelift I've ever seen'

So, what's behind Ricki's dramatic weight loss? According to the TV personality, it was all about making lifestyle changes. "I did not go on any drug because I wasn’t prediabetic," she explained. Instead, she whittled down her size-four figure with a strict keto diet, intermittent fasting, Pilates classes, and two-mile daily hikes while wearing a weighted vest.

And the results? Absolutely stunning! Ricki's transformation has left fans in awe - but let's be real, it's not just about the physical changes. The TV personality has also been open about her struggles with yo-yo dieting for decades, making her latest makeover all the more impressive.

But what about other celebs who've allegedly gone under the knife? According to insiders, a long list of A-listers have gotten in on the plastic surgery action - including Oprah Winfrey, Kathy Bates, Kelly Clarkson, and even Elon Musk! However, there are also many stars who remain tight-lipped about their procedures, leaving fans wondering what's really going on behind those flawless facades.

At that, host Andy Cohen gushed: '[I've] got to tell you I'm heading to LA for this! I've seen a lot of [plastic surgery] work in these chairs. That's really good'

So, will Ricki Lake be joining the ranks of celebs who've gone under the knife? Only time will tell - but for now, we're just thrilled to see her rocking that new face and neck!

Lake said of scarring: 'You can't see [any] thing. It looks amazing. And I love that I can talk about it. I'm fully transparent, always have been, but I don't want there to be any stigma'

The New York native's confession on the boozy Bravo talk show came 10 days after The Kardashians producer-star Kylie Jenner (pictured May 30) decided to spill the secrets to her ample assets

The 27-year-old Kylie Cosmetics CEO replied to a grateful fan on TikTok: '445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle! Silicone! [Dr.] Garth Fisher! Hope this helps, LOL!'
