Did Bristol Palin Have Plastic Surgery?

Bristol Palin was first introduced to the world in 2008 when her mom, Sarah Palin, was the vice-presidential nominee for the Republican Party. She was barely out of high school and was also expecting her first child.

Bristol is now 27 years old and has three children. Palin was also seen in Beverly Hills and Hollywood during her time as a contestant on “Dancing With The Stars”.

She is also the subject of plastic surgery rumors thanks to changes in her appearance.

In 2011, she discussed having surgery to correct her jaw. She told Us Weekly, “It's not plastic surgery. Yes, it improved the way I look, but this surgery was necessary for medical reasons… so my jaw and teeth could properly realign… I don't obsess over my face." She did say that “I am absolutely thrilled with the results. I look older, more mature, and don't have as much of a chubby little baby face!"

Dr. Tal Rounder, a Miami plastic surgeon, thinks that weight loss has been a big part of her changing look.  He told Life & Style Magazine, “While she did admit to undergoing jaw surgery — which could have been for cosmetic reasons or functional reasons, for example, to correct an overbite — you can tell her lower lip looks somewhat fuller, which could be a result of fillers or upturn of the lip due to jaw surgery."
