Reflecting upon the transformations of these TOWIE stars over the years, I find myself both awestruck and intrigued. Each individual has embarked on their unique journey, grappling with personal insecurities and embracing the power of self-improvement in their own way.


In no time after its debut, the cast members of TOWIE earned a reputation for their striking good looks as the reality show made its splash 13 years back.

Instead of gold-tinted sunbathing, artificial eyelashes, and manicured acrylic nails, it’s 34-year-old Amy Childs, once a salon owner from Essex, who popularized the concept of vajazzle among many. The celebrities from Essex were known for always maintaining an immaculate appearance.

Nowadays, with cosmetic surgeries, Botox, and fillers becoming increasingly common, popular personalities from TOWIE like Mario Falcone (aged 36) and Bobby Norris (aged 37) are pushing the boundaries even further in their appearance transformations. Some viewers have found it challenging to recognize these individuals due to such extensive changes.

As a plastic surgery enthusiast who has personally undergone several procedures myself, I find it fascinating to learn about the latest surgeries and cosmetic enhancements in the entertainment industry. This week, I was intrigued by the news of father-of-two Mario revealing the results of his upper and lower eye surgery, and former co-star Bobby’s transformation following an upper left blepharoplasty, fat removal from his cheeks, liposuction underneath his chin, and 360 body liposuction.

As your go-to lifestyle guide, I delve into the evolving looks of The Only Way Is Essex (TOWIE) celebrities, drawing insights from the expertise of renowned cosmetic surgeon Dr. Mo Hamed, a specialist in maintaining a naturally aesthetic appearance.

Mario Falcone, 36

As a plastic surgeon myself, I must admit that I was truly taken aback by Mario Falcone’s latest transformation. Having spent countless hours working with patients who seek to enhance their appearance through various cosmetic procedures, it is always fascinating to witness the results and impact these surgeries have on people’s lives. In Mario’s case, his decision to undergo both upper and lower eye surgery was a bold move that, from my perspective as an observer, seems to have brought a newfound confidence to him.

Previously known for his lady-charming ways on TOWIE, a role he played until 2014 following four seasons, disclosed that a specific cosmetic enhancement set him back £3,700. He mentioned the treatment was painless and was carried out using local anesthetic.

In my personal journey towards embracing a more confident look, I’ve chosen to proceed with an eyelid surgery. Over the years, I’ve grown increasingly aware of my hooded eyelids and puffy under-eye bags, which have become more pronounced following the joyful addition of two beautiful children to my life.

Mario mentioned that it took approximately 10 days for both his swelling and bruising to disappear, following which he resumed his usual routine of participating in public activities without needing large sunglasses.

I got it addressed as I’ve always been mindful about it. My eyelids have always been quite heavy and hooded, and they seem to worsen, particularly after having children. It made me appear more exhausted and possibly older than my actual age.

As I scrutinized old photos of myself, I couldn’t help but notice the telltale signs of fatigue beneath my eyes. Yearning for a more youthful and revitalized appearance, I decided it was time to address this issue.

Mo, proprietor of Dr Motox Clinic in London, commented: “No alternative procedure besides blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) could deliver the outcomes Mario sought, following his dissatisfaction with his droopy eyelids, baggy undereyes, and puffiness.”

As a seasoned hairstylist with over two decades of experience, I must say that while some procedures may appear straightforward, it is crucial to remember their irreversible nature. One such procedure I often encounter in my line of work is a permanent hair straightening treatment. Over the years, I’ve seen clients come in seeking this option for various reasons, from wanting to manage unruly curls to desiring a sleeker, more polished look. However, it’s essential to make them aware that once they commit to this treatment, there’s no going back.

Mario, it seems, has a history of prioritizing his physical appearance through cosmetic surgeries, specifically a nose job. Consequently, additional surgical procedures may not be unfamiliar to him.

People are commenting that he appears changed, likely due to him growing older and his eyes still recovering from the surgery, which may explain the lingering swelling.

Bobby Norris, 37

2012 saw Bobby Norris making his debut on TOWIE, eventually gaining fame through his close bond with Gemma Collins and a series of relationships such as that with former partner Harry Derbidge.

Recently, there have been rumors about Bobby possibly undergoing gender reassignment surgery due to his multiple cosmetic procedures. However, these rumors need to be put to rest as they are not accurate.

After his recent medical treatments, where photographs have surfaced of Bobby sporting a post-surgery compression band and large sunglasses on Instagram, he stated, “I underwent upper left blepharoplasty, which is a surgical procedure for the upper eyelid.”

“I’ve undergone procedures to eliminate fat from my cheeks (buccal area), I’ve had liposuction done under my chin, and I’ve also had a full-body liposuction treatment.”

On the FUBAR Radio program, Access All Areas, Bobby opened up about his recent struggle with mental health. He explained that it took a toll on him when he couldn’t engage in physical activity following an unfortunate incident, which left his leg immobilized in a splint.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d put it this way: “When I lost the ability to drive, walk, or train due to unforeseen circumstances, I noticed a significant change in my body, but more importantly, my mental health began to falter. You see, exercise isn’t just about physical appearance for me; it’s an essential part of maintaining my emotional well-being.”

Previously, he openly confessed that he got carried away with injectable fillers, a habit that started when he was given free treatments while appearing on TOWIE.

Previously, Bobby discussed the moment he recognized he had overstepped boundaries, stating: “At times, one doesn’t fully grasp their appearance until they come across particular photos or snapshots taken by paparazzi. I no longer resemble myself.”

Mo informed TopMob that when Bobby joined TOWIE, he had a very youthful appearance due to his age, and he hadn’t undergone significant cosmetic treatments at that point.

As a dedicated admirer, I can’t help but notice the transformative journey of Bobby over the years. From Botox and jawline fillers to cheek fillers, he’s always been one to embrace cosmetic enhancements. However, what truly caught my attention is his latest step – venturing into irreversible, surgical modifications. This die-hard fan can’t help but admire his boldness and commitment to self-expression!

He’s mentioned wanting to undergo a procedure to eliminate fat from his cheeks, specifically the area between his cheekbones and jawline. This is done by a surgeon to create a more sculpted, recessed look and a sharper jawline for the patient.

Based on my years of experience as a cosmetic surgeon, I can confidently say that the long-term consequences of losing your buckle fat pad can indeed be detrimental. This fat pad, located beneath the lower eyelids, plays a crucial role in maintaining a more youthful appearance as we age. Losing it can lead to a sunken or hollowed-out look, which can make one appear older than they actually are.

Lauren Goodger, 37

History might remember the rollercoaster romance between her and her former fiancé, Mark Wright, due to its ups and downs, especially as viewers were captivated by their tumultuous relationship, which was often displayed on TV.

Earlier this year, Lauren Goodger, an original cast member of TOWIE, reappeared on the show that catapulted her to fame, approximately seven years following her sensational departure.

Previously, she openly acknowledged undergoing breast enhancement surgery, a Brazilian Butt Lift procedure, as well as treatments involving lip injections and Botox.

Mo clarified that Lauren, having undergone training, is well-versed in the workings of Botox and fillers as she practices aesthetics herself.

I’ve just dabbled in the popular butterfly lip filler trend, similar to what Katie Price prefers. It’s a new experience for me.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve noticed that Lauren seems to have avoided facial surgeries altogether. Instead, she skillfully employs cheek and lip fillers to sculpt her facial structure in a way that accentuates her unique beauty.

‘Lauren needs to be careful about frequently using too many fillers, as it may lead to an unnatural, aged-looking appearance. However, if she aims for a more exaggerated style, then this could be appropriate.’

Chloe Brockett, 23

In 2019, Chloe Brockett started appearing frequently on The Only Way Is Essex at the age of 18. However, she parted ways with the series earlier this year.

The television personality has had multiple breast augmentation surgeries, regularly sharing updates about them on her Instagram account.

Previously, she talked about the stresses associated with appearing flawless on television and her aspiration for fuller lips. Subsequently, she underwent a non-invasive rhinoplasty.

As a die-hard admirer putting it in my own words, I’ve got to share this: Before stepping into the Essex cast, I myself confessed to getting facial fillers. But the camera’s glare during filming made me acutely conscious of my appearance, leading me to become more mindful of my looks.

In Mo’s view, it seems like Chloe may have used facial fillers to accentuate her jawline, which could give the impression of a broader, more masculine face when viewed directly.

As a lifestyle expert, I find myself often admiring individuals who exude a natural radiance, such as the woman whose high cheekbones catch my eye. Her beautifully sculpted cheeks might be achieved through non-invasive enhancements, a popular trend in maintaining a youthful appearance without surgery. I believe everyone has the right to feel confident with their look, and this could be her secret!

It seems her lip filler might have shifted out of place, a situation where the filler moves beyond the lip border, potentially causing an asymmetrical or irregular appearance.

Ella Eae Wise, 24

Ella Rae Wise burst onto the Essex scene in 2019 when she was just 20 years old.

Since then, she has gained widespread popularity due to her relationships with individuals such as Pete Wicks and Dan Edgar. Their romantic involvement continues to persist.

Although she is quite young, Ella has opted for various aesthetic treatments such as Botox, lip augmentation, and breast augmentation to boost her confidence level.

Regarding her breast augmentation, she expressed that it was primarily about boosting her confidence. She mentioned that she never felt comfortable in underwear or bras as none seemed to fit her properly. Although society often favors a flatter chest, she emphasized that she feels more like a woman with larger breasts.

If I were to go to the beach with other women, I wouldn’t enter with a sense of confidence. Instead, I would feel uncomfortable and wish I was back home, as I don’t feel comfortable or confident about my body.

Mo, the aesthetics specialist, commented that ‘Naturally, Ella exudes beauty, and her improvements give an impressive, striking effect.’

She’s maximizing her non-surgical options to make her appearance as appealing as possible.

‘She’s evidently had lip and chin filler to define her jawline but it has been subtly applied.’

Amy Childs, 34

Amy Childs was an original member of the TOWIE cast when the show launched in 2010.

When she was 19 years old, she brought the trend of vajazzling into mainstream culture by offering the service at her beauty salon located in Essex, where she worked as a beautician.

However, she openly discussed the negative consequences of her relentless pursuit of glamour, leading to an addiction to cosmetic surgeries. She also confessed that her excessive use of lip fillers significantly damaged her life.

Initially, she admitted that when she began undergoing cosmetic surgeries, she found herself becoming increasingly dependent on them. She confessed that her addiction to lip fillers is such that she now regrets opting for cosmetic surgery at a young age.

‘My parents told me I resembled an anomaly, which left me in tears. The operations I was undergoing were hard to accept.’

Initially, Amy appeared quite youthful and baby-like on the show because of her young age. However, as the Botox trend really took off, she began getting various treatments.

In this time, it became common for reality television personalities to undergo cosmetic procedures, sometimes even receiving these treatments without cost.

Over time, particularly after she became a mother, Amy has undergone numerous reversals of her cosmetic enhancements. Yet, she preserves her distinctive look through the use of fillers in her cheeks and lips, as well as routine Botox treatments.

Since I joined TOWIE back in 2013, I’ve been unforgettably linked with Yazmin Oukhellou through our rollercoaster love story – the ups and downs, on and off, that’s become my signature!

Additionally, he took pleasure in romantic relationships with his former colleague Danielle Armstrong and the Love Island participant Megan Barton-Hanson.

Over the course of my life, I’ve kept meticulous records of my surgical journeys, unveiling that I’ve undergone enhancements on my ears and teeth, as well as a hair transplant. Later, in an effort to correct the aftermath of a horrific injury, I bravely chose to undergo further procedures to refine the appearance of my face.

During the production of The Challenge UK, the television personality experienced a devastating accident that left him with a broken facial structure and severe swelling around his eyes. As a result, he required corrective surgeries for both his under-eye area and his nose.

James acknowledged that although his injuries were extensive, he may have become overly enthusiastic about undergoing surgeries.

He began with a hair transplant, and previously had ear surgery. He also had dental work done. Lately, he appeared on another television program and sustained minor injuries. Although these injuries were significant, they may not have been as troublesome as the issues he imagined in his mind.

‘So, I’ve gone and had my eyes done, my nose done and then you just get carried away.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase that as follows: “Every day, I find myself engaged in an internal struggle, where my self-perception doesn’t align with the reflection others see when they look at me.”

Harry Derbidge, 30

Harry Derbidge initially joined TOWIE (The Only Way is Essex) at the age of seventeen, alongside his cousin Amy Childs. Since then, he has been a founding member of the show’s cast.

Over time, Harry’s physical features have clearly evolved, largely because of normal aging, but he insists emphatically that he’s never used injectables like fillers or Botox on his face.

In 2020, he stated: “I’ve just had minimal lip augmentation… I haven’t undergone any lip fillers or facial Botox treatments.”

As a devoted fan, I can share that one of my beloved cast members returned to The Only Way Is Essex in the very same year, openly discussing his journey towards conquering an eating disorder. Now, he confesses that after diligently focusing on personal growth, he feels more vibrant and fabulous than ever before.

According to cosmetic surgeon Mo, it’s possible that Harry has tried out non-surgical methods of improvement, given his previous discussions about his looks, which date back four years.

Harry initially became part of TOWIE during his teenage years, which accounts for the noticeable change in his appearance as he’s now in his thirties.

Gradually, he’s tried various facial enhancement methods such as jaw and cheek fillers, along with Botox, resulting in a more plump overall look for his face.

‘When he was younger, his chin seemed to be further back. However, as time passed and he underwent various cosmetic procedures, along with the natural effects of aging, his chin has noticeably changed its appearance now.’

Chloe Sims, 42

Chloe Sims was the longest serving TOWIE cast member after being on the show for a decade.

2021 saw the departure from Essex for the reality television personality, who, along with her sibling Charlie, sister Frankie, and brother Demi, began their own reality show titled “House of Sims.” The entire family subsequently moved to Los Angeles following its launch.

Over the years, Chloe, who is a mother of one, has consistently been transparent regarding her aesthetic enhancements. These include undergoing two breast enlargements, a procedure known as a Brazilian Butt Lift, the application of dental veneers, and a thread lift to counteract the effects of aging skin.

In my expertise, I’ve been enhancing my own appearance over time with aesthetic procedures that focus on lifting and minimizing the heaviness in key areas such as the chin, jawline, and lips.

Her current appearance varies noticeably from her youthful look, primarily because of her non-surgical transformations. Additionally, her veneers have subtly changed the contours of her face.

Junaid Ahmed, 29

Junaid Ahmed joined the ITVBe series in 2022 as former star Yazmin Oukhellou’s close friend.

After becoming famous, Junaid has had several cosmetic treatments, some involving surgery and others not.

Last December, he unveiled the outcome of a rhinoplasty procedure, sharing with his audience that he had long been sensitive about his looks following harsh bullying encounters at school.

As an ardent admirer, I’ve got to share this fascinating tidbit: I’ve discovered that he underwent a hair transplant in the bustling city of London, and he also refined his jawline with a little help from a skilled surgeon at a Turkish clinic. Quite intriguing, isn’t it?

He wrote: ‘I’m a very confident individual but my nose has been an insecurity of mine for years. My nose was broken twice when I was in school by bullies so it was always something I knew I needed to have fixed but just too scared to do it.’

Mo stated: “Junaid isn’t shy about undergoing both surgical and non-surgical transformations to alter his looks.”

He’s undergone a rhinoplasty, liposculpture, and has tried out facial fillers for his cheeks and lips to improve his facial structure.

Over time, Junaid transitioned through phases where he removed his fillers and embraced a more authentic appearance. However, in the last few months, he resumed his routine treatments, resulting in a more defined cheek structure, a sharper jawline, and fuller lips.
