At only 14, Bella Hadid got a nose job, but as an adult, she wished she "had kept the nose of [her] ancestors."

She continued, "I had beautiful breasts, like, natural tits. Just gorgeous, perfect size, perfect everything...I would recommend anyone thinking about it to wait until after children. Obviously, I have a daughter, too, I would be heartbroken if she wanted to get her body done at 19."

She told Vogue, "I think I would have grown into it."

She continued, "Normally, my procedure would've taken four hours tops. My procedure took over 8.5 hours, y'all. Whatever that silicone mass — whatever that was that was in my buttocks — it kept clogging the machine, and breaking it."

She also had her facial fillers dissolved.

She told Us Weekly, "I was getting ready to film [1998's] Wild Things, and I didn't want to get into a lawsuit with some plastic surgeon. It wasn't right what the doctor did, but it is what it is."

On IVillage, she wrote, "At 19 when I first got my breasts done, I wish that I was confident enough with my body to not have had surgery. That is something that I really want to encourage in my daughters, to embrace their healthy body and have confidence...I often get asked about my thoughts on plastic surgery, and I honestly feel it's whatever makes a person feel good about themselves."

She also later learned that her implants were "expired and recalled," but she put off a removal for years. However, her daughter, Stella, encouraged her to go through with it because she was worried about her.

On Jeff Lewis Live, Tori said, "I got them when I was really young. And I didn't know that at a certain point they would have an expiration. I didn't know that you would have to do it again...It really hit home for me when my daughter came to me, and she's like, 'Mom, I'm concerned. You have put this off. You told me for years now that you need to get your boobs redone.'"

In an Instagram Live, she said, "All I'm going to say is that if you're young, if you're 19, 20, 21, and sometimes you're too skinny, and you be like, 'OMG, I don't have enough fat to put in my ass,' so you result to ass shots, don't!"

In an essay for HuffPost, he wrote, "None of the doctors suggested I consult a psychologist for what was clearly a psychological issue rather than a cosmetic one or warn me about the potential for addiction...Before seeking to change your face, you should question whether it is your mind that needs fixing. Plastic surgery is not always a bad thing. It often helps people who actually need it for serious cases, but it's a horrible hobby, and it will eat away at you until you have lost all self-esteem and joy. I wish I could go back and undo all the surgeries. Now I can see that I was fine to begin with and didn't need the surgeries after all."

In a 2019 YouTube video, she said, "I went into surgery that day crying of fear and guilt, knowing what I had came in so happily to once get done was now my biggest nightmare."

However, after the removal surgery was over, she "felt like Natalie again."

She continued, "A sign of insecurity. Just celebrate what you've got."

She told Cosmopolitan UK, "I went from looking like a teenager to someone on Botched. I’ve never thought of myself as insecure, but I must have been to do that...We need to stop normalizing filler, with things like 'Kylie Jenner [surgery] packages'...It scares me to think that if I have a daughter in 10 years' time, what it might be like for her."

She told Working Mother, "I got the most botched boob job on the face of the planet."

She told People, "I don't regret [the initial fillers] for a second. It's made me who I am. I am the perfect poster child for what not to do on a whim. With all that's happened with the lip, I can show them that you need to love yourself for who you are and embrace how you look."

On This Morning, she said, "I have to deal with a bad back, my boobs have dropped, an implant came away from me, and now I might not be able to breastfeed...I want to say to all these young girls, really think about going under surgery. There are so many alternatives these days."

She also revealed that she developed an addiction to lip fillers.

She said, "In the end, I remember looking at myself in the mirror and wondering what I'd done. So I got rid of the lip fillers, and I had nothing. I lost all sensitivity and had no lips. So I had corrective treatment and haven't touched them since."

At 31, she told Life & Style, "I could have done without getting a chin implant that I had to take out, that's for sure. It's definitely, like, dimpled up my chin. But you know, there's things that happen, and I can't control everything."

She also revealed that she decided to stop getting cosmetic work done altogether after she began living by a 12-step program and gained confidence.

She said, "Does it look like I need plastic surgery procedures? No. I'm feeling pretty happy. I've actually felt more freer. And I think that equals like less lines. I just feel so much happier and healthier. It's a whole balance."

She told Glamour, "My lips are back to what they were. Thank God!"

In a 2020 YouTube video, she said, "It is not worth it. It is not worth the risk. I spent almost $10,000 getting my breasts done, and...I didn't think that literally less than a year later, I was gonna have to spend the exact same amount, if not more..to fix it all because it's literally killing me now."

She told Cosmopolitan, "I was way too young to make such a life-changing decision and was under so much pressure because it was the beginning of comment sections and negativity and hate on the internet. I was just really self-involved at the time—like so many young people — but I was also on TV where every perceived flaw is amplified. I think I looked in the mirror a little too much...Obviously, it's your body and I’m not against plastic surgery, but everyone always shows you the before and after pics. They don't show you how devastating the recovery is. I don't regret a lot of my enhancement, but plastic surgery isn't something that should be glorified. Take it seriously."
