Model is refusing to age naturally, pumping herself with fillers and Botox

Cindy Crawford has been looking slightly “different” on her most recent outings, which has prompted many voices online to cry “wolf” and claim she had work done. One plastic surgeon believes that's truly the case.

Speaking with Radar Online, Dr. Ben Behnam, who never met or treated Cindy, opines that she's starting to lose her natural look – most because she's turning to fillers and Botox to help her fight signs of old age.

This is not the first time that the name of the once stunning model (who is still stunning, but no longer a model) comes up in conversation when talking about procedures to banish wrinkles, which can sometimes create a very unnatural, plastic-looking beauty.

She has never admitted to having anything done.

“Her cheeks are a lot fuller. She definitely had something injected in her cheeks. Most probably Radiesse or the other option would be Sculptra,” Dr. Behnam tells Radar.

The filler is meant to give the patient higher cheeks, thus creating the so-called “triangle of beauty.”

“They’re both designed to give people higher cheekbones. It’s very popular in the industry and her cheeks are visibly higher and fuller,” the plastic surgeon states.

Sculptra is applied over a period of many months and can last for years, thus making it hard to say whether Cindy (allegedly) had it injected recently or a while back, Dr. Behnam says.

He also believes Cindy has been getting Botox on a regular basis which, if injected in too large quantities, can also create the impression of fake.

“Her eyebrows are also higher than before. She probably used Botox to raise the brow,” he says.

“Something else that’s different is she doesn’t have the definition in her jaw area, which could just be because she’s getting older,” the expert adds.

Since said expert never worked with / on Cindy and, at 45, she has the looks most women would kill for, it's probably best to give her the benefit of the doubt on this one.
