Anna Faris, Before and After

One thing you've got to respect about Anna Faris is that she owns her plastic surgery—well, her breast augmentation, at least. 

She told The New Yorker it “wasn‣t a career thing—it was a divorce thing.” (This was in 2007, after her split with Ben Indra.) Anna also admitted to getting lip injections for her role in 'The House Bunny' in 2008. 

So has she kept them up—or made any other adjustments above the neck? Loads of you have remarked on how “different” Anna looks now. I present you her beauty evolution:

Anna in 2001

Wait—what? Anna was brunette? She was 24 here, and it gives her a totally different vibe. This brown hair is still much darker than her natural “mouse” colour. I prefer the blonde. 

Also from 2001 is this pic from the Juicy Couture suite at the Chateau Marmont. OMG. First of all, Juicy Couture. Remember when that was a thing? Second, did you spot Tori Spelling? Ah… the early 2000s. 

Anna in 2002

By 2002, at the premiere of The Hot Chick, Anna had lightened her hair to super-blonde. Note the bleached-blonde eyebrows, too. Thank goodness people aren't doing that anymore. (Well, except for Pat McGrath.) 

Anna in 2003

Here, you can kind of recognize Anna… but she doesn't look the same as the Anna we know today. I think it's the eyes, nose and mouth. She was 26 here. 

Anna in 2006

I still don't think anything had changed yet at the Scary Movie 4 premiere in 2006. She looks really natural here, like a super-pretty regular girl instead of a glammed-up celebrity. 

Anna in 2007

You'll notice Anna's brows got darker by 2007. Are her lips perhaps getting bigger as well? This would be about the time that she was filming The House Bunny, so maybe. 

Anna in 2008

See how there's a progression with the beauty styling? Better hair, better makeup… but I'm wondering if her eyes are a little different here. In this and the later photos, they seem more wide-open. 

Anna in 2009

By this time, Anna was 32 and officially a star. It could be the makeup, but her eyes look more awake here versus the earlier pics. And it does seem like her nose is a bit more refined now. 

Anna in 2010 

I think in this next photo, the new nose is even more evident. It's subtle, and it still fits her face, but wow—does it ever make a difference, huh? Like I've said before, that is the number one refinement actors usually make. Pretty amazing how a subtle bit of shaping can transform a face. 

Anna in 2011

Same, same, and still looking good, in my opinion. Her lips seem to have settled down, or maybe she's just in between injection appointments. 

Anna in 2012

I feel like Anna might've started the cheek filler by this stage (she was 35 here). And you can see there's a tightness starting to form around her mouth, probably from Botox? 

Anna in 2013

The fillers are even more evident in this 2013 shot. A little heavy-handed there, doc! Maybe they looked okay when she wasn't smiling, but here, her cheeks look unnatural and stick out from her face. Better to just have a flat face, no? 

Anna in 2014

And now we come to the photo that made us all gasp: “What has she done?!” For the record, I still think Anna is gorge—even here—but there IS something bizarre happening to her smile. It looks like she can't make expressions properly. My guess is Botox around the mouth to “lift” the corners. Kind of a problem when your job is acting.

Update: Anna in 2015

In this shot, I love the softer hair, and you can see that she hasn't Botoxed away the creases around her eyes. 

Update: Anna in 2016

Here, it looks like she has some natural creasing between the brows, and on her forehead—no Botox!

Update: Anna in 2023

Wow, her hair has really grown! I love the bangs and the eye makeup. It really does look like she's easing up on the injections. 

Conclusion

So Anna DOES look different. But if she did have a rhinoplasty, it doesn't appear to be a recent thing. It happened before she became famous (which makes her no different from practically everyone else in Hollywood). 

I think hers was very, very well done, and though she was pretty without it, it did enhance her beauty. Nose jobs are still a bit “taboo,” but I respect that she has openly admitted to getting implants and injections, which most other celebs would deny. 

As for the needles… okay, that 2014 pic was a bit surprising. I think she did overdo it, but Botox and fillers are only temporary. It seems like she's opting for a more natural look these days. Let me know what you think!
