Hillary Clinton, 77, looks unrecognizable in taut-faced photos during date night with Bill
Former presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has sparked fresh facelift rumors after she was spotted sporting an enviably-taut visage. The former president and secretary of state stepped out in New York City on Wednesday night after eating at Carota in the city's West Village. Hillary, 77, looked taut faced and wrinkle free in the new pictures of the two, while Bill looked his 78 years. Bystanders cheered as they left the eatery. Her new look comes after speculation that she went under the knife before beginning her campaign for the 2016 presidency. Journalist Edward Klein wrote in his book 'Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary', that husband Bill had 'wanted her to get a face-lift' before her campaign. Klein wrote that Bill told her that 'she couldn't do anything about the calendar, but she could do something about the lines and sagging skin on her face'. She is said to have set up a 'mini-operating room' in their Chappaqua, New York, home as she no had intention of going to a clinic. Clinton then had work done on her cheeks, eyes, neck and forehead, it is claimed. Results of a face lift typically last ten years, so it is possible that she has had another one to rejuvenate her skin once more. Klein said in his book that Clinton had her 'cheeks lifted and her wrinkles and lines Botoxed' and had 'work done' on her eyes, neck and forehead. She took it gradually and didn't have anything drastic done, because she wanted to evaluate the changes as she proceeded,' Klein said, quoting one of Clinton's friends. He continued: 'If it had started to make her look weird, she would have stopped it immediately. It was a pretty big deal and required multiple visits.' It's not the first time that Clinton was spotted youthful, after she was seen at an event on Broadway in 2019. Experts spoke with back then to say they believe her noticeably smoother complexion could have been down to Botox and a blepharoplasty - the scientific name for an eyelift. Aesthetic expert Dr Ross Perry said then: 'Hillary Clinton looks fantastic and I would suggest this is down to regular tweakments and procedures over the years, which appears less noticeable than having dramatic work done all in one go. 'Her forehead looks particularly smooth, which would suggest Botox has been administered in the forehead, frown line and around the eye area, as there appears to be minimal crows feet. It's not the first time that Clinton was spotted youthful, after she was seen at an event on Broadway in 2019, seen here Dr Perry added that he suspected Hillary may have had blepharoplasty, a procedure in which excess skin above the eye is removed. Aesthetic practitioner Dr Judy Todd said back then: 'There also appears to be slightly more volume in the lips which could also be from a filler.' Clinton has never addressed the rumors concerning her procedures, but her spokesperson Nick Merrill had previously issued a putdown on Klein's book.
