According to the reports on an entertainment portal, the Picnic actor has also had an upper and lower eyelid surgery which in medical terms is known as blepharoplasty. This has been suggested as the actor’s eyelids appear firm and lack any puffiness which should be common for someone her age. The report analysed how her eyebrows looked excessively elevated during her Oscar appearance, which is evidence of a traditional brow lift. It was also being speculated that her nose appeared to be thinner, which can be a result of a medical procedure named rhinoplasty, which in simple terms is known as a nose job.
