Sydney Sweeney addresses cosmetic surgery rumors
Sydney Sweeney addressed plastic surgery rumors in a December 2025 interview for Allure, saying, “I have never gotten work done. I am so scared of needles, you have no idea.” While speaking with her The Housemaid co-star Amanda Seyfried, Sweeney added, “Everybody on social media’s insane,” in response to people comparing images of her from childhood to adulthood.
She continued, “You cannot compare a photo of me from when I was 12 to a photo of me at 26 with professional makeup and lighting! Of course I’m going to look different.” Seyfried commented that cosmetic procedures can be effective with age, to which Sweeney replied, “I’ll call you,” with Seyfried responding, “You gotta call me, and I’ll give you a little bit of Ativan, and you’ll be so excited. But you don’t need it yet.”
Sweeney also addressed a feature of her face that some might misinterpret as surgical. “If I did [have work done], you guys, my face would be even,” she said. When Seyfried asked what she meant by “even,” Sweeney explained that one of her eyelids opens slightly more than the other. She revealed this was the result of a childhood wakeboarding accident that required 19 stitches.
In a separate Variety interview published October 27, 2025, Sweeney stated, “I’ve never gotten anything done. I’m absolutely terrified of needles. No tattoos. Nothing. I’m going to age gracefully.” She also recalled being told at age 16 to get Botox to succeed in the industry, saying, “I had someone tell me to fix my face or else I’m not going to make it.”
Sweeney emphasized she has not had any cosmetic procedures. She explained that changes in her appearance are due to natural aging, professional lighting, and makeup.
