Linda Evangelista revealed that she was ‘brutally disfigured’ after a cosmetic procedure.
. One of the original supermodels who many deem the greatest of all time, Evangelista has left an indelible mark on the fashion industry, from her iconic catwalk moments to her unforgettable one-liners. But while her contemporaries, like Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, and Cindy Crawford, have stayed in the spotlight, Evangelista has been noticeably absent—and now she’s bravely opening up about why.
The complication Evangelista experienced is called paradoxical adipose hyperplasia, which is an extremely rare side effect of cryolipolysis, the technical term for Coolsculpting, in which cold temperatures are used to permanently destroy fat cells in treated areas. According to Joshua Zeichner, M.D., director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, anresults as an excess of new fat develops around two months after undergoing treatment.
Evangelista says she was not warned about this risk—and that she has been “brutally disfigured,” even after undergoing two different corrective surgeries, which is the only way to treat paradoxical adipose hyperplasia, according to Zeichner. As noninvasive cosmetic procedures grow in popularity, so does awareness around the rare side effects that can occur—especially when someone in the public eye comes forward with candor and transparency. “I think it’s great celebrities are discussing what they have done, to share both the good and the bad so we can further educate the public on what they can do to treat cosmetic concerns, and what the real risks are associated with getting these treatments,” says Zeichner.
Since Evangelista has shared her story, the industry has come out in droves to support her. “Thank you for your courage and strength,” said Marc Jacobs, who has beenabout his own cosmetic treatments. “Love that you’re reclaiming your story,” wrote January Jones, who perhaps best summed up the power in Evangelista’s revelation, adding: “This strength and bravery supersede any superficial outward appearance. An icon is an icon is an icon. Always.
