Dolly Parton’s Thoughts on Plastic Surgery
“I don’t really think about it too much,” Dolly told The Guardian in 2011. “If something is sagging, bagging, or dragging, I’ll tuck it, suck it or pluck it.”
She told Oprah Winfrey in 2020 that she thinks she was “about 40” when she started having plastic surgery. “I’m a firm believer, whatever it takes to make you feel better about yourself,” she explained on The Oprah Conversation. “If you’ve got the nerve, and you’ve got the money, and you’ve got the need for it…If you feel good about you, you can make people feel better about themselves, because you feel good.”
But Dolly acknowledged that you have to be discerning when you go the surgical route.
“You’ve just got to be very careful not to overdo it because you never know,” she said on The Howard Stern Show in 2023. “Anytime you go under the knife, you could come out looking not good.”
And, she noted, “I try to do just little bits at a time— I don’t do like really big stuff. I do fillers, Botox…only when I have to do something a little more, and even then, I try to be careful.”
