Football legend Tom Brady wasn’t the only star to attract attention after his mortifying TV roast, which aired live on Netflix on Monday.

Aside from watching Brady squirm, audiences were also captivated by the face of Ben Affleck, who showcased a new clean-shaven look.

Rumors quickly circulated online that the 51-year-old actor had undergone a facelift thanks to his anti-aging, wrinkle-free skin.

“Ben Affleck is on stage freshly renovated,” one X user wrote, while another commented: “Ben Affleck’s facelift looks crazy.”

But what do the experts say? Today, speaking to DailyMail.com, plastic surgeons have delivered their verdict, concluding that Affleck’s face is indeed not entirely natural.

Plastic surgeons pointed out the very shiny and smooth area on Affleck’s forehead as well as the minimization of wrinkles to suggest the use of Botox.

They also pointed out the loss of his crow’s feet, seen here in this 2021 image.

However, rumors of a facelift are probably unfounded.

Dr Raja Mohan, a plastic surgeon in Texas, told DailyMail.com: ‘In my opinion, it appears he has undergone Botox and filler treatment to rejuvenate and rejuvenate his face. (But) it doesn’t look like it’s had a facelift.

“In previous photos he has wrinkles on his forehead and crow’s feet…which we don’t see at all in his latest appearance, the areas look very shiny and smooth which probably means that he had Botox.

“And then for the jawline and cheek area, you don’t see that loss of volume like in the previous photos, so there’s probably been some filling there.”

He added: “I don’t think he has had a facelift as the change in his appearance is not as dramatic as one would expect with this type of procedure.”

Affleck appeared clean-shaven before his appearance in The Accountant 2, with fans assuming his new, fuzz-free look helps him in his role.

But even with the beard, photos show very few signs of aging on Affleck’s face since 2016.

Surgeons also pointed to this image of Affleck from 2016. In July last year, he received Botox, according to sources, after deciding he “hated how old and tired he was starting to look “.

Star sources exclusively suggested to DailyMail.com last night that Affleck has had Botox, but he has avoided fillers.

“Ben looks great,” the source said. “He had Botox – everyone has it before the events. He didn’t have any fillers and certainly no surgery.

In July last year, it was suggested that Affleck had resorted to Botox after his “image-conscious” wife Jennifer Lopez, 54, urged him to “tweak up his appearance”.

Botox lasts on average three to six months.
