Actress may be clean, but she's found a new hobby in reinventing herself

Lindsay Lohan has been making the media rounds promoting this weekend's Saturday Night Live show, which she'll be hosting. She may be clean of drugs and alcohol but she's definitely developed a new fascination with plastic surgery, experts say.

That the star has been tampering with her face can't possibly be a secret these days, even though she keeps denying it: her lips and her cheeks are too plumped up to be natural.

This is also what Dr. Anthony Youn, who never met or treated Lindsay, believes. He tells Radar Online he can even see the beginning of a very unhealthy addiction to plastic surgery in Lohan.

She might have traded one addiction for another, he says: she stopped drinking and doing drugs, but she's constantly messing with her face.

“Unfortunately, it looks like it,” Dr. Youn says when asked if he believes the 25-year-old actress is ruining her natural good looks with too much surgery.

“She appears to have a classic, over-plumped pillow face. Her cheeks look like she's storing nuts for the winter. I suspect that she's undergone multiple injections of filler like Sculptra or Restylane,” he explains.

“While these treatments can create a very youthful, natural look, when overdone they can make a person look like a Cabbage Patch Doll,” he adds.

Plus, it's not like Lindsay really needs all these procedures. Even considering the fact that she's been burning the candle at both ends, she's still young, so she could probably do without them for years from now on.

This isn't the first time that Dr. Youn picks on Lohan for her newfound love, Radar notes.

A while back, he said she was definitely injecting Botox into her forehead and too much filler into her lips and cheeks, making her look puffy and virtually unrecognizable from how she looked just months before.

“I suspect that hard living combined with some plastic surgery is causing her to look virtually unrecognizable. Her lips look plumped and stiff, possibly from injections of Restylane. Her forehead is also excessively smooth, consistent with injections of Botox or Dysport,” he said at the time, as cited by the aforementioned media outlet.
