‘I was Katie Price’s surgeon – patients wanted to look like her but not anymore’

Katie Price, a national treasure, recently revealed the results of her new facelift, claiming that people assume she resembles Megan Fox, a Hollywood actress. The reality star, 46, travelled to Turkey earlier this year to undergo her sixth facelift, which left her “struggling to see” and “feeling sore”. But now the mum-of-five is healed, she took to TikTok to show off the results, saying: “Everyone keeps saying I look like Megan Fox – I wish I looked like Megan Fox, she’s stunning”!

However, her former surgeon, Dr. Jeya Prakash, is one of the people who most unmasks the similarities between Katie and the Transformers actress. The London-based doctor, who gave Katie her first two boob jobs when she shot to fame as glamour model Jordan in the late 1990s, tells the Mirror: “Katie’s facelift is not good. She and Megan have no similarities, in my opinion. If you see Megan’s smile, the upper lip is turning upwards, and the upper lip is smaller than the lower lip. It looks natural. I don’t think Katie looks natural”.

However, Dr. Prakash has revealed that many of his clients in the early 1980s would take pictures of the glamour model as inspiration for their looks. Katie doesn’t have to look like Megan either. “In the olden days, if I may say so, clients used to come and ask me to make me look like Katie Price”, he says. “I am talking about in the early 2000s, her face was so good. People don’t ask me to make them look like her now, they say, ‘ Oh god, I don’t think you did Katie Price’s face now ‘ I say no. People want it to look natural”.

Dr Prakash, who actually denied Katie a facelift when she came into his office in 2022, continues: “It’s a battle, I have been through this many times with Katie. It’s not just how it looks now. How will this surgery change in five years, you must consider before doing it? In 10 years time? You must be aware of it a lot. In addition to the swelling, the right cheek is slightly uneven if you look closely at the most recent photo.

The top doctor continued, stating that after numerous surgeries, it can be challenging to make a face appear more natural. “I always tell clients when you bring a plain place, I can make a nice building”, he says. “But if you bring an already done-up building to make it into a new building, it is very difficult. Katie was looking smashing. She was very sassy and had excellent movement. Now everything has totally changed. There are no indications of her older traits.

In countries like Turkey, Dr. Prakash only works on patients after numerous consultations and mental health assessments. He is also skilled in controlling expectations, and he will turn down applicants who want to have a completely different appearance from their natural counterparts. “I tell patients, if you are a rabbit, you should be a defined rabbit. A defined horse should be a horse if you are one. I cannot change a horse into a deer”, he explains. “They come with pictures of a celebrity they want to look like, but their bone structure, their muscle structure, their definition of fat and skin might be totally different, so I can’t do it”.
