However, as videos and press shots from her appearance began circulating online, her interview was quickly overshadowed by comments about her face, which many users noted appeared puffier than normal.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, a user said, “I don’t understand how they can look in the mirror and not see what they’re doing to themselves.”

Another user wrote, “Wow, she has destroyed her pretty face.”

When new episodes of “Real Housewives of Miami” began airing December 2021, Pippen spoke openly with her co-stars about her cosmetic surgeries.

According to her, she’s had work done on her nose and lips. “That’s basically it,” she said before adding, “I’ve had my [breasts] done before,” per Bravo’s Daily Dish.

When her co-stars pressed her about the size of her glutes, Pippen denied having surgery done on them.

“I literally work out seven days a week. If I show you my photos from five years ago, I was less than 100 pounds. I’m 140 pounds now, so yea, my legs look thicker than they were, my arms look thicker than [they were]. My whole body has changed … my body’s tight because I work out.”

During a conversation with the DailyMail, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Kahn weighed in on the speculation, offering a professional opinion on what the Bravo veteran may have had done to her face.

“It looks like she has gotten some fresh fillers for summer,” they said, explaining that Pippen’s lips were puffy so she “likely had plenty of filler on both the top and bottom.”

Dr. Kahn also theorized that the reality star may have gotten “Botox on her forehead.”

After speculation intensified, the “House of Villains” star shared a video on her Instagram Stories to explain why her face appeared so “swollen.”

In the video, Pippen told her followers to “relax,” explaining that she had PRP or Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment, which helps with tissue repair, so her face was “a bit swollen.”

“It looks like it’s coming down, so you guys can just calm down,” she said.

Pippen shared a similar statement in the comment section of Dr. Mai Kaga’s Instagram post about her appearance.

“Honey, I had PRP and had an allergic reaction, so chill out,” Pippen wrote.

Meanwhile, on the latest season of the “Real Housewives of Miami,” Pippen has been clashing with her frenemy, Lisa Hochstein, over her allegiance to her ex-boyfriend, Marcus Jordan.

During an explosive conversation in the season 7 premiere, Pippen confronted Hochstein for speaking with Jordan at an event. She also explained to Hochstein that her actions bothered her because she knew about how Jordan was allegedly displaying “toxic” behavior toward her during their relationship.

“I’m in a toxic relationship, trying to remove this person from my life,” Pippen said on camera. “Do you think I want you to go hang out with him, where he’s literally going to send me a message telling me everything that you guys talked about, and how you said that you weren’t going to tell me that you saw him?”
