Amanda Bynes revealed that she underwent cosmetic surgery to have skinfolds removed from the corners of her eyes in a new TikTok video on Monday, December 11. She explained that undergoing the blepharoplasty was a major factor in helping her self-confidence. “I saw a couple of stories online that say I have a new look,” she said at the start of the clip.
Amanda looked directly in the camera showing off her bleach blonde hair, dyed blue eye-brows, heart tattoo on her face, and septum piercing. She also pointed out how the surgery changed her look. “I was never open about this before, but I actually had blepharoplasty surgery on the skinfolds in the corners of my eyes. So I don’t have those skinfolds anymore,” she said. “So I just wanted to post about that just to clear up that rumor as to why I have a new look.”

It was one of the greatest things I could have ever done. ”
Besides opening up about the blepharoplasty surgery, Amanda also took another video to explain why she doesn’t “look good” in paparazzi photos.
