Ricki Lake just got real about the cosmetic work she’s had — and now, scores of fans want to follow in her footsteps!
The beloved former talk show host appeared on Thursday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and openly discussed her lower neck lift and facelift. Her candidness has sparked a rush of interest in Beverly Hills, where her surgeon, Dr. Allen Foulad, says his office has been overwhelmed.
According to TMZ, Dr. Foulad’s team received hundreds of inquiries between Thursday night and Friday afternoon from people eager to book the now-popular “Ricki Lake Procedure.” With three staff members working nonstop to handle phone calls, emails, and online bookings, about half of these leads have already turned into actual consultations.
Dr. Foulad expressed gratitude for Ricki’s openness, noting how it helps reduce the stigma surrounding plastic surgery. “I admire her willingness to share her experience publicly,” he said. “It’s important to show that you can get a facelift and still look like yourself — just refreshed.”
The renowned surgeon emphasizes his focus on natural, subtle results that enhance a person’s best features without obvious signs of work done.
Ricki’s honest revelation comes amid a growing wave of celebrities embracing transparency about their cosmetic enhancements. Kylie Jenner, for instance, set the trend by revealing details about her breast augmentation, prompting many fans to seek similar procedures.
While not everyone is suited for the exact same surgeries as their favorite stars, Ricki Lake’s facelift is clearly inspiring many to explore the possibilities of gentle, natural-looking facial rejuvenation.
