Strictly star Arlene Phillips reveals the results of facelift as she goes make-up free after treatment
STRICTLY star Arlene Phillips has revealed the results of her facelift as she posed make-up free.
The former Strictly judge, 79, looked fresh-faced as she showed fans the results of the procedure.
She had her facelift just before Christmas at popular celeb surgeon Doctor Nyla Raja’s clinic.
Arlene had an ‘EMFace’ procedure which is a needle-free procedure that simultaneously treats facial skin and muscles in a 20-minute session.
Following the session results are said to continue for up to three months.
Meanwhile, Phillips has confirmed that she will not be returning to the Dancing on Ice panel for the next series.
The West End legend told The Sun that she had not been approached by ITV bosses to take part in the upcoming season.
The choreographer explained that five permanent judges would be too chaotic and said feedback should be kept short and snappy.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun about returning to the skating show, Arlene said: “No not this year, I think having five judges is actually quite a long process and I personally think you need to keep all of the comments snappy – keep those shows moving along.
“Sometimes I find the physical entertainment and watching the artists is really exciting and then I feel like the judges’ comments should be two sentences, just two sentences, next thank you.
“I don’t think they were going to have five judges this year, it was just a one-off last year, in a way a post-pandemic return.”
Last year, Arlene joined existing judges Ashley Banjo, 34, Jayne Torvill, 65, Christopher Dean, 64, and Oti Mabuse, 32.
She was given the chop from Strictly in 2008 amid suggestions she was too old at 64. At the time she was sharing the panel with Bruno Tonioli, Craig Revel Horwood and Len Goodman.
