Jocelyn Wildenstein, a renowned Swiss socialite, has firmly denied undergoing any cosmetic surgery despite her distinctive cat-like appearance, which many attribute to extensive plastic surgeries.
The 84-year-old, often referred to as “Catwoman,” recently told a news outlet on November 26 that she has “never” had plastic surgery. This statement contradicts her Wikipedia page, which describes her as “a Swiss socialite known for her extensive cosmetic surgery, resulting in her catlike appearance.”

No Botox or Fillers
In a recent interview, Wildenstein explained that her fear of adverse effects has kept her from getting plastic surgery.
“I haven’t had plastic surgery,” Wildenstein told The Sun. “I am scared of what can happen, and I don’t like to have something heavy. Sometimes it is a bit heavy and terrible.”
She also revealed that she has avoided Botox after a bad experience.
“I don’t like Botox. Everyone has a different reaction to it,” she said. “I have had Botox only twice. I don’t know if I am allergic, but when I had it, it did not go well with me. It was not a good result. My face swelled up. If [other women] want to do it too strong, it doesn’t work well.”
Wildenstein added that she has never used fillers either. “I never did any fillers. I have some friends who had fillers and were not happy,” she noted.
High-Profile Divorce
Jocelyn Wildenstein is perhaps best known for her high-profile divorce from billionaire art dealer and businessman Alec Wildenstein. It is believed she began altering her appearance in the 1980s to resemble a cat, possibly at the request of her late ex-husband, who was a fan of big cats and wanted her to look like a lynx.
This isn’t the first time Wildenstein has denied undergoing cosmetic procedures, despite her noticeably different appearance in a throwback photo she shared on her daughter’s birthday a few weeks ago.
