The Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen is clearing the air on whether she recently had cosmetic surgery.
“OK, so I feel like that photo went viral [and] I’m wondering if someone made it appear to be that because that is what my face looks like, you guys,” Pippen, 51, said in a Saturday, August 9, Instagram Story video. “I’m on TV, so what I appear to be. I just shot my reunion just a few days ago, so that you’ll see what I appear to be on the reunion.”
Plastic Surgeon Mai Kaga uploaded an Instagram video about Pippen earlier this week, sharing a before and after photo and claiming that the Bravo star went from “naturally beautiful to noticeably overfilled” after getting multiple kinds of cosmetic surgery.
“I did have PRP,” Pippen said on Saturday, referring to a Platelet-Wealthy Plasma treatment that injects a patient’s own platelets to advertise healing. “I did have an allergic response to the PRP, which I didn’t even know you possibly can have.”
She continued, “So, my face is a bit swollen, but it surely doesn’t appear to be that. Carry on hating, guys!”
Pippen has previously been candid in regards to the other cosmetic procedures she’s had through the years.

“I’ve had my nose done. I’ve had my lips done. And that’s mainly it,” Pippen said through the RHOM reunion in 2022, also noting she had a breast augmentation ahead of season 3.
On the time, Pippen was also rumored to have gotten a Brazilian butt lift.
“I literally work out seven days every week,” she told Andy Cohen through the reunion, denying the speculation. “If I show you my photos from five years ago, I used to be lower than 100 kilos. I’m 140 kilos now, so yeah, my legs look thicker than they were, my arms look thicker than they were. My whole body has modified. My body’s tight because I work out.”
It’s often thought that celebrities who’ve had cosmetic surgery will go to any lengths to cover their secret, but stars from Ronnie Ortiz-Magro to Courteney Cox have been candid about their experiences going under the knife. Some celebrities have even shared their cosmetic surgery nightmares. Heidi Montag, for instance, developed health problems resulting from her […]
Pippen further stressed that she was “very glad” with how she looked.
“I feel like I’m very progressive,” she said. “I’m into trends, and I feel like whatever makes me feel good and look good, I’m willing to do. I’m that person. I’m very glad with the way in which I look.”

Lisa Hochstein, who was previously married to plastic surgeon Lenny Hochstein, also defended her RHOM costar later that month.
“It’s a private thing. Nobody must inform you what they’ve gotten done,” Lisa, 43, exclusively told Us Weekly. “This whole thing about, well she’s on TV or try to be owning as much as what you probably did, probably not, it’s not it’s for her to inform or not to inform.”
