Tamra Judge Reveals Her Post-Op Journey After Cosmetic Treatments

Tamra Judge, star of The Real Housewives of Orange County, is offering her fans an inside look at her latest cosmetic treatments. The 57-year-old reality TV personality recently underwent a brow lift and a CO2 laser treatment with a blue chemical peel, sharing her recovery process in a series of Instagram videos.

Behind the Scenes of Tamra's Cosmetic Enhancements

Tamra began sharing her experience on August 31 with a candid video on Instagram. In the post, she explained her decision to undergo these treatments, stating, "Seven years ago, I had a lower facelift but skipped the upper—like painting the house but forgetting the trim. Stay tuned for updates!” In the video, her face appears a light blue hue as she recovers from the procedures.

On September 1, she posted another update, revealing a more swollen face, neck, and chest. "Day three and the swelling’s making a statement," Tamra captioned her post, acknowledging that "progress isn’t always pretty, but it’s happening." With visible swelling affecting her ability to open her eyes, she described feeling as though her skin was "about to burst."

Tamra’s Determined Approach to Recovery

Despite the visible discomfort, Tamra seemed unfazed, mentioning that her doctor had assured her that she would be "turning a corner" soon. Keeping her humor intact, she noted, “Looking like it’s supposed to look, nice and crispy.” Fellow reality TV star Madison LeCroy of Southern Charm showed her support, commenting, “You’re going to look 16!”

Understanding the Procedures

Dr. Donald Mowlds, who performed the treatments, explains that brow lifts help reduce forehead wrinkles, while the CO2 laser treatment and blue chemical peel are designed for skin tightening and eliminating deeper wrinkles. These procedures are part of Tamra's ongoing commitment to maintaining her youthful appearance.

In a 2023 Q&A session with fans, Tamra openly discussed the cosmetic work she has had done over the years. "Botox. I do not do fillers! I also keep my face out of the sun," she shared. She also mentioned her love for intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) once a year and admitted to having her lips plumped occasionally, "about every other year."

Conclusion

Tamra Judge continues to be transparent with her fans about her cosmetic journey, sharing both the glamorous and not-so-glamorous sides of beauty treatments. Her openness offers a rare glimpse into the recovery process, reminding everyone that even reality TV stars are willing to endure discomfort for their desired results.
