Zellweger stepped out in London for the Bridget Jones Scenes Unveiling, and it did not take long for people to notice that her lips had recently appeared to be thinner.

As she smiled for the paparazzi, it became evident that her regular puffy lips were smaller than usual. She had moderate glam on, and her blonde hair was pulled up, accentuating her face.

Dr Khan shared his opinion on the noticeable changes, noting that although she looked different, it was likely that nature was the cause of this difference. He said, "She is getting older and she is losing collagen in her face, which may make her features appear more slender."

At the beginning of the year, a different plastic surgeon, from Channel 4's "10 Years Younger, My Big Bo-bs" and "ITV's Price of Perfection," Dr Mark Solomos, weighed in.

He commended her looks, saying that she looks great in his opinion, and confirmed that she gets a ton of critiques over her looks and what she may have had done. He continued by attributing the changes on her face to weight loss and aging.

Dr Mark then shared his suspicion about the procedures the actress might have undergone. He said that judging from her less hooded eyes, she suspects she had a blepharoplasty, that is, an eyelid lift, and she may have also had lasers for tightening.

He also disclosed that he thinks she has not done anything else to alter her looks besides some non-surgical skin tightening to her face. Added advantages would probably be a healthy lifestyle, good diet, good exercise regimen, and top-notch skincare routine.
