Melania Trump has been in the public eye throughout her entire life as a model and eventually as the First Lady of the United States. Therefore, she is used to being in the spotlight and dealing with public scrutiny.

So, has the first lady ever had plastic surgery or are her modeling features completely natural? As Yaman Surgical Medical Center in Istanbul, we will analyze “Melania Trump cosmetic surgery”, estimated costs of the potential procedures, in this blog.

Melania’s Nose Job Operation

Melania has had beautifully shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, and a bulbous nose at 17. Her lips have a good proportion as well; however, her lower lip is slightly fuller than her upper lip.

In addition, since it has a strong facial bone structure, both, maxilla where the cheekbones are located, and its lower jaw where the jawbone and the rest of the jawbone are located, are quite prominent.

When we examine the photos of the ex-model at the age of 28 that her upper horizontal third is longer than her mid-phase and her lower face. She also has a widow’s peak at the hairline. You can see that she’s sporting thinner eyebrows at that time.

Moreover, at this age, the tip of the nose is less bulbous and the dorsal hump, that is, the area right at the top of the bridge, looks less prominent. From these photos, we can deduce that she may have had her rhinoplasty surgery, one of the “Melania Trump cosmetic surgery” procedures, between the ages of 17 and 28.

Fuller Lips and Post-Rhinoplasty Sign

When we examine the first lady’s 29-year-old photos, the left side of her face appears to be higher than the right. Her eyebrows the level of the orbit and nasal ala and oral commissure are slightly higher on the left side compared to the right side. However, we want to point out that everyone has this kind of asymmetry on their face and it is normal.

Also, her lips look fuller at this age, so it looks like she may have injected collagen and micro droplet silicone.

At the age of 30, we’re seeing some signs of a potential nose job in the past. We’re seeing a more prominent nostril when viewed from the front, a very common feature after rhinoplasty. Along the bridge of her nose you can see where osteotomies were likely done. Those are the bony cuts that are made to try to narrow the bridge of the nose.

Dr. Aydin Mamak is one of Turkey’s premier rhinoplasty surgeons. He uses osteotomies to reduce the hump on the nose and prevent a flat-looking dorsum or flat-looking nose (open roof deformity). He recommends this method because it allows patients to attain a more natural, 3-dimensional, non-flat-shaped nasal contour.

Teeth and Filtrum Changes

In Melania Trump’s photos at age 31 full tooth show on smile. At the age of 32, her upper teeth come into a resting position when she parts her lips, and we can see her upper teeth quite clearly.

Moreover, in her photographs when she was 32 years old, it can be seen that her filtrum or the distance between the base of the nose and the tip of the cupid’s is longer than in her teenage years.

This may be partly due to the aging process. As we age, our skin expands and lengthens, so the filtrum can appear longer. Additionally, people who undergo rhinoplasty sometimes notice that the filtrum has lengthened as well. This is because the fibers of the orbicularis muscle, which surrounds our lips, actually interdigitates or connects to the base of the nose.

Skincare, Cheek Volume, and Botox

Melania looked fantastic while she was 33 years old due to extremely healthy-looking skin. This healthy-looking skin may be the result of genetics, skin care routine, moisturizer, and sunscreen.

Mrs. Trump’s cheeks look fuller at 34. This looks more like the result of cheek implant surgery than cheek filler. Some people get HA fillers to make their cheeks look fuller, while others get fat transfer to achieve more defined cheeks.

Looking at photos of the high-profile political spouse at 37, we notice that her eyes appear smaller. It’s likely she had a canthoplasty (lateral brow lift), giving her cat-shaped eyes.

We also suspect she had Botox at that age to address forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet around her eyes. In addition, the Botox in the forehead can prevent the muscles in this area from moving, putting pressure on the eyebrows and making the eyes appear smaller.

Neck Aging and Platysmal Bands

We notice early-age jowling in Melania’s photos at age 42. Due to gravity, sagging has begun in this area. However, since the first lady’s midface and lower face bones are strong, the sagging caused by gravity is not very noticeable.

At 44, Mrs. Trump’s forehead lines are more noticeable and her eyes appear more open. Perhaps the effects of her previous Botox treatments have diminished. When we look at photos of the first lady at the age of 48, neck skin laxity developing and becoming more visible.

Sometimes what we see is that platysmal bands can form in the neck and some people address that with the Botox injections to try the weaken the muscles so that the bands are less prominent. And other people look to the surgery where the plastic surgeons are cutting some of those muscles and then repositioning it and tightening it up.

The platysmal bands or the neck muscles can be addressed in isolation surgically but it can also be addressed as part of a facelift procedure.

Possible Facelift

In her photos at age 49, Mrs. Trump’s lip corners are starting to get slightly downturned, and this is a completely normal appearance for a woman at this age. This is due to a combination of both the volume depletion that occurs at the corner itself and, of course, the gravitational descent. Some people with this type of sagging can undergo a deep plane facelift operation.

At 52, the first lady’s jawline is quite smooth and youthful. It appears she’s likely had a facelift. However, because her hair covers her ears, we can’t see any facelift scarring in the photos. So, it remains a possibility.

Conclusion:  Estimate Melania Trump Cosmetic Surgery Cost

In conclusion, you can assume that the possible total cost of Melania Trump’s alleged cosmetic procedures is quite high. If she had these surgeries done in the USA, the cost of a rhinoplasty would be around $15,000, lip fillers $3,000, canthoplasty $15,000, Botox treatments performed since 2007 would total approximately $100,000, cheek implants would cost about $20,000, and a facelift around $50,000.
