Truth or myth: Arina Sharapova had plastic surgery

In such a new body, she appeared on the show “Let Them Talk” with Andrei Malakhov. People said that if it weren't for the voice and captions on the screen, they would never have thought that this was the same presenter.
If you compare most photographs, for example, at thirty-five and fifty-five years old, you will hardly find any changes there. The contour is very tight and the skin in the facial area is smooth. At the moment, the presenter seems at least twenty years younger.

In fact, it is very difficult to confirm any plastic surgery on Arina’s appearance, because a huge number of plastic surgeons have exquisite and delicate work, and not every person is able to recognize their lifting methods. Because after it the face remains the same, but this is not at all the case.
