Tyra Banks
Supermodel Tyra Banks certainly knows how to strike a pose and steal the spotlight when it comes to working the cameras.
At 51, she looks just as stunning as she did during her modelling days in 2000.
Dr. Ross says: 'There's a reason Tyra Banks became a supermodel.
'Genetically blessed with striking facial features, though she has admitted to undergoing nose surgery in her younger years, Tyra still looks as incredible today as she did at 20.

'Her skin remains completely flawless and virtually line-free. One factor that contributes to this is her skin type.
Mariah Carey, 56, wears FOUR figure-hugging outfits and puts on leggy display as she headlines Brighton Pride
'Black skin tends to age more slowly and show fewer signs of aging compared to lighter skin tones, primarily due to a higher concentration of melanin.
'Melanin acts as a natural sunscreen, offering greater protection against sun damage, one of the biggest causes of premature aging.
'Also, darker skin typically has a thicker dermis and more compact collagen bundles, which contribute to its firmness and resilience over time."

"That said, it's highly likely that Tyra has had some tweakments along the way," he adds.

'While Tyra may have had subtle assistance to maintain her youthful appearance, it's clear that her genetics, smart skincare choices and likely a carefully curated tweakment routine have all played a role in preserving her iconic beauty.'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Botox: £1,050 a year (£350 per session, every four months)
Profhilo: £950 for initial two sessions, with top-ups at £475 every 4-6 months
Fractional Ablative Laser Skin Resurfacing: £2,250 for three initial sessions, plus maintenance
Regular Facials: £2,400+ a year (£200+ a month)
TOTAL COST OVER 31 YEARS: £161,150

Answer: 19 years
She starred in Freaky Friday where she swapped lives with her mum, but it seems Lindsay Lohan has mastered the art of barely aging in real life.
At 39, she's undergone the ultimate glow-up, looking like she is turning back the clock.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'In the last 18 months, Lindsay Lohan has undergone the ultimate glow-up, looking even better now than she did 20 years ago. She appears more radiant, more refreshed, and more polished.
Advertisement
'While Lindsay has firmly denied undergoing plastic surgery, she has openly credited her skincare regime and a few advanced aesthetic treatments for her transformation.
"Among her favourites? IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) laser facials, which help to brighten the skin and reduce pigmentation for a clearer, more even complexion.
"She's also a fan of Morpheus8, a cutting-edge treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production, tighten skin, and improve texture.
These are said to include a nose job, eyelid surgery, Botox, fillers, a facelift, dental enhancements, and cheek implants
Dr. Ross Perry
'Lindsay's porcelain skin tone and natural freckles mean she has always had to be extra careful with sun exposure.
Advertisement
"It's likely that daily SPF protection has been a staple in her skincare routine since childhood.
"Being fair-skinned, she would be particularly prone to sun damage and premature ageing, so avoiding the sun and investing in skin protection has clearly paid off.
'If you look back at Lindsay in her 20s, there was a period when she appeared to overindulge in cosmetic treatments, most notably lip fillers, cheek fillers, and Botox.
"However, her current look is a masterclass in subtle tweakments. Any previous overuse appears to have been dialled back and refined, giving her a much more balanced and natural appearance.

'The biggest rumour surrounding her transformation? A full facelift, although this has been fiercely denied.
"Should this have taken place, it would typically cost anywhere between £12,000 and £30,000+, depending on the extent of the surgery and the surgeon's expertise.'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Morpheus8: £1,485 - £1,980 for initial sessions (£495 per session, 3-4 sessions), plus maintenance
Subtle Botox: £960 a year (£400+ per session, every 5 months)
Lip Enhancement: £700+
IPL Laser Facials: £1,360 - £2,040 a year (£170 per session, a series of 4-6 sessions twice a year)
TOTAL COST OVER 19 YEARS: £68,590

Kris Jenner has always been the ultimate matriarch, but at 69, she arguably looks better than ever.
Kris has built her look alongside the Kardashian empire, where beauty and speculation go hand in hand.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'Kris Jenner arguably looks the best she ever has, fresh-faced, polished and, yes, noticeably different from how she appeared two decades ago.

'While the shift in her appearance can certainly be attributed to a skilled surgeon and a team of top-tier aesthetic experts, it's also a testament to the Kardashian brand itself.
"After all, few families have built an empire on beauty, speculation, and reinvention quite like the Kardashians, and perhaps nothing captures public attention more than the 'has she or hasn't she?' conversation around cosmetic work.
'To Kris's credit, she's been fairly open about dabbling in aesthetic treatments, and it's been widely reported that she has spent upwards of half a million pounds on procedures over the years.
'These are said to include a nose job, eyelid surgery, Botox, fillers, a facelift, dental enhancements, and cheek implants. Her most recent procedure, a deep plane facelift, reportedly cost around £100,000 alone.

'But keeping up with Kris is a full-time commitment. Her current glow is said to be maintained through a mix of advanced non-surgical treatments, including:'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Deep Plane Facelift: £100,000
Botox: £960+ per year (£400+ per session, every 5 months)
Fillers: £1,500 - £3,000 annually
Dental Enhancements: £20,000 - £50,000
Cheek Implants: £5,000+
Non-surgical skin treatments (e.g., laser facials, Morpheus8): £5,000 - £10,000 annually
TOTAL COST OVER 49 YEARS: £664,790

Mariah Carey, the ultimate diva, has perfected her signature look over the years, barely changing despite the passing decades.
At 56, she continues to radiate glamour, with her youthful appearance sparking rumours of subtle cosmetic enhancements.
Known for her extravagant lifestyle - complete with beauty treatments like bathing in milk and hiring masseuses for hours-long pampering sessions - Mariah's approach to self-care is nothing short of iconic.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'Mariah Carey's signature look has barely changed over the years.

She has no doubt used Botox to fill out her lines, done in a way that lifts her eyes rather than making them droop
Dr. Ross Perry
'Yes, there has been weight loss and weight gain, which has resulted in more of a rounded and puffy face in appearance, often leading to speculation of the overuse of fillers and rumours of a breast enlargement.
"However, the procedures Mariah has no doubt done have been carefully and subtly executed.
'She is, after all, the ultimate diva, with rumours suggesting she uses milk as a beauty treatment and once allegedly paid a masseuse $1,500 (£1,144) to massage her for eight hours while she slept.
"These rumours only add fuel to her brilliant 'diva qualities.'
Advertisement
'I don't doubt she looks after her body with a daily personal trainer, private chef, and leads a healthy lifestyle - all contributing factors to ageing well.
"I'd also say she stays out of the sun, but equally, as she has such few lines, she has no doubt used Botox to fill out her lines, done in a way that lifts her eyes rather than making them droop.
'Other than that, she may have possibly had some filler to keep the youthful cheeks nice and full-looking - very much a signature of Mariah's - and then, alongside this, likely laser resurfacing on the skin and possibly Profhilo.'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:

Botox: £400 every 4-5 months
Profhilo: £475 per session
Fillers: £400+
Laser skin resurfacing treatment: £170 per session
TOTAL COST OVER 36 YEARS: £116,280

Answer: 60 years
Cher has always been the queen of reinvention, defying age and gravity with her timeless beauty and iconic silhouette.
At nearly 80, she still turns heads, proving that age is just a number.

Known for her openness about cosmetic enhancements, Cher has reportedly spent over £500,000 on procedures and treatments to maintain her youthful glow – a testament to her commitment to looking and feeling her best.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'Cher has long defied the rules of ageing and gravity, and at nearly 80, she still turns heads with her youthful glow and unmistakable silhouette.
'While she's never shied away from discussing her love of cosmetic enhancement, it's estimated that the global superstar has spent over £500,000 on plastic surgery and aesthetic treatments over the years.
'Among the most widely reported procedures are multiple facelifts, several breast augmentations, regular Botox and lip fillers, rhinoplasty, and potentially cheek implants - though Cher has always fiercely denied this rumour.
Advertisement
'For someone nearing 80, the fullness in Cher's cheeks is unusual. At that age, most people experience significant facial volume loss. In her case, this is likely the result of fat transfer or dermal filler rather than implants.
'To maintain her smooth, glowing skin, it is also likely that Cher regularly undergoes skin rejuvenation treatments, including laser and light-based therapies every 6-8 weeks.
"Considering that around 80% of visible skin ageing is caused by sun exposure, it's safe to assume Cher stays out of the sun entirely and wouldn't dream of leaving the house without a high SPF.'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Advertisement
Cheek fillers: £400+ every 4–6 months
Botox: £400 every 4–5 months
Skin treatments (laser/light-based): from £170 per session
Facelift: around £30,000 every 8–10 years
TOTAL COST OVER 60 YEARS: between £395,400 to £425,400

Answer: 51
Oprah Winfrey is the epitome of graceful ageing, looking better today at 71 than she did in her younger years.
Her glow, poise, and confidence are undeniable, and her appearance remains remarkably natural.
Advertisement
While her weight has fluctuated over the decades, giving her face a fuller or more chiselled look at different times, her skin remains smooth, luminous, and impressively youthful.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'A key factor in Oprah's graceful ageing is her genetics.
'As often noted, Black skin typically ages more slowly than lighter skin tones, largely thanks to a higher concentration of melanin, which acts as a natural sunscreen.
"Melanin offers enhanced protection against sun damage, one of the primary causes of premature ageing.
Advertisement
"In addition, darker skin often has a thicker dermis and more densely packed collagen, which contributes to long-term firmness and resilience.
'As for cosmetic intervention? It's unclear whether Oprah has ever gone under the knife, and if she has, it's been done with such subtlety that it escapes obvious detection.
"Her overall look is likely a mix of excellent skincare, clever makeup artistry, and naturally good skin.
'That said, it would be reasonable to suggest that Oprah may opt for small amounts of Botox, particularly around the eye area to prevent crow's feet, along with occasional laser or light-based facials to treat pigmentation, thread veins and to maintain an even skin texture.'

Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Botox: £400 every 6 months
Laser facials and skin rejuvenation treatments: £200+ every 3 months
TOTAL COST OVER 51 YEARS: £81,600

Decades after she turned heads in that iconic Versace dress, Liz Hurley looks as radiant and youthful as ever.
At 60, she seems to have unlocked the secret to ageing gracefully, blending natural beauty with a touch of aesthetic enhancement.
While genetics undoubtedly play a role - her mother has aged beautifully - it's clear that Liz works hard to maintain her slim, toned physique, which could easily rival someone in their late 20s.
Her thick, glossy hair, always expertly styled, completes her polished yet effortlessly youthful appearance.

Speculation around a facelift is ongoing, and while nothing has been confirmed, if she has had one, it's been expertly executed
Dr. Ross Perry
Dr. Ross Perry explains: 'Certainly, genetics play a part in Liz's age-defying look.
'Her mother has aged beautifully and Liz has clearly inherited those attributes. But there's also no denying that she works hard to maintain her physique.
"Her slim, toned frame, often a key marker of youth, combined with her signature thick, glossy hair, gives her an effortlessly youthful vibe.
'One of Liz's most recognisable features has become her plump lips, a shape that was far less prominent during her early days in the spotlight, such as when she dated Hugh Grant.
Advertisement
"This suggests she may have had regular lip filler, but it's been beautifully balanced and proportionate, enhancing her natural beauty without overpowering her features.
'Speculation around a facelift is ongoing, and while nothing has been confirmed, if she has had one, it's been expertly executed.
"In today's world, it's less about whether someone has had work and more about how well it's been done. And in Liz's case, the result is subtle, elegant, and natural.
'To maintain her youthful glow, Liz is likely to rely on a mix of non-surgical aesthetic treatments, such as Botox to soften fine lines, dermal fillers to restore volume and Profhilo to deeply hydrate and improve skin elasticity.

"Microneedling and laser treatments could also play a role in improving skin texture and stimulating collagen.
"Upper eyelid surgery is another possibility, as it's a straightforward yet effective procedure for lifting sagging lids, commonly affected by age.'
Estimated cost of potential treatments:
Botox: £400 every 4 months
Dermal fillers: £400+
Profhilo: £470 per session
Microneedling and laser treatments: £170+ per session
Upper eyelid surgery: approx. £6,000
TOTAL COST OVER 40 YEARS: From £134,800 to £140,800

Answer: 36 years
Jennifer Lopez continues to amaze the world with her youthful glow and toned physique, looking at least 15 years younger than her actual age.
At 56, JLo is the perfect example of how hard work, commitment, and a touch of clever beauty tricks can defy the ageing process.
Advertisement
While her natural beauty and genetics play a role, her dedication to self-care ensures she remains as radiant as ever.
Dr Ross Perry explains: 'First and foremost, JLo has been blessed with natural beauty and great genes.
An inexpensive yet effective moisturiser, particularly for tackling fine lines under the eyes.
Dr. Ross Perry
'Her olive skin tone also gives her a natural advantage when it comes to ageing.
"Olive skin contains more melanin, the pigment responsible for skin colour, which provides a natural layer of protection against sun damage, a major contributor to premature ageing.

'But genetics can only go so far. Jennifer is famously committed to self-care.
"She reportedly eats a clean, unprocessed diet full of oily fish, leafy greens, and hydration-boosting foods.
"She avoids caffeine and alcohol, two known accelerators of ageing, and likely benefits from a private chef who crafts meals rich in vitamins and antioxidants.
'Her workout regime is also a key part of her youthful glow. She exercises vigorously to maintain a toned physique and promote overall wellness.
Advertisement
"Given her skin type, it's likely JLo is careful about sun exposure, opting to get her daily dose of Vitamin D without overexposing her skin to UV rays, another major factor in skin ageing.
'Despite her natural appearance, it is likely JLo has had some subtle tweakments over the years.
"These could include a small amount of Botox around the eyes, frown lines, and forehead, always with a light touch.
"Some soft filler in the cheeks, where we tend to lose volume with age, could also be part of the equation.
Advertisement
'Other non-invasive treatments she may use include Profhilo, an injectable that deeply hydrates the skin and laser therapy to treat pigmentation and improve texture.
'Her daily skincare routine is likely meticulous. It may include a gentle cleanser, a Vitamin C serum in the morning, retinol at night, and a high-quality SPF every single day.
"She's also been quoted as using olive oil on her skin, rich in antioxidants and vitamins, which is a natural way to lock in moisture and support the skin barrier.
'Interestingly, she's also rumoured to use Aquaphor, an inexpensive yet effective moisturiser, particularly for tackling fine lines under the eyes.'

Botox: £400 every 4 months
