Denise Richards, 55, made her first public appearance since her much-publicized facelift.

Denise Richards made her first public appearance since opening up about her plastic surgery. The 55-year-old actress attended an event to celebrate the launch of the BBTV streaming service, which celebrated the 39th anniversary of the American soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful."

For the evening out, Richard chose a lavender lingerie-style dress with lace inserts and rhinestones. She completed her look with stiletto sandals and diamond jewelry.

As a reminder, earlier this week, Denise publicly admitted that she had undergone a comprehensive facelift less than a year ago. The actress shared photos before, during, and after the surgery on her social media, and in an interview with Allure, she described every step of the procedure in detail. Richards decided on a complete rejuvenation and turned to celebrity surgeon Ben Talley, who performed a deep facelift and neck lift, a temple lift, blepharoplasty, and lipofilling. The results were called "phenomenal" online, noting that the actress now looks at least 15 years younger.

In the '90s, Denise Richards was considered one of Hollywood's leading sex symbols. She starred in the cult film "Starship Troopers," and her scene in "Wild Things" is still considered one of the most memorable in cinema of the decade. The actress also appeared as a Bond girl in "The World Is Not Enough" with Pierce Brosnan. After reaching the peak of her fame, she became a reality TV personality and recently began a modeling career on OnlyFans.

In 2018, Richards married Aaron Phypers, but in 2025, she announced her divorce, accusing him of domestic violence. Previously, the actress was married to Charlie Sheen, who was also rumored to have abused her. The former couple have two daughters: Sam and Lola. In 2011, Denise adopted a girl she named Eloise.
