“It’s a band-aid procedure, but it definitely affected my self-esteem, and [is] definitely something that I was insecure about — especially when you’re intimate with your boyfriend,” she reveals.

The former Miss USA was engaged to boxer Oscar De La Hoya in 1998, but they parted ways in 2000. They share a daughter Atiana, 24. She was also married to Blink-182 drummer, Travis Barker, from 2004 to 2008. They share two children Alabama,17, and Landon, now 19.

“I’m really thrilled that I got to work with Dr. Perez for the sheer fact he was so open and honest about the entire procedure.

Noting that “getting older is not easy,” the model-turned-actress says age does not have to define who you are.
“I think as I age — and go into my 50s and 60s — I probably will do small things to maintain, but right now I’m very comfortable with the procedures that I have done and where I’m at,” she says.
“Getting older is not easy but it does not have to define who you are. It sounds cliché, but I believe age is just a number that’s part of me. At my age now … I actually think I look more beautiful than when I was in my 20s, but everyone deals with that kind of differently.”
