Since President Donald Trump returned to office this year, Lara Trump has shot back into stardom, but fans have accused her of undergoing a ‘MAGA makeover’ ever since

After becoming more prominent in the spotlight, Lara Trump fans have spotted a huge transformation in her looks following her “joining the cult” of the first family — an occurrence many have dubbed the “MAGA Makeover.”

Since joining Fox News after her father-in-law returned to the White House for his second term, the 42-year-old political figure has certainly not shied away from wavering her support for the President, his sometimes controversial choices and his past.

However, it hasn’t been Lara’s stance and diehard support of President Trump that has got people talking, but rather her “changed” appearance. Fans have said the wife of Eric Trump now looks much more glamorous than she did pre-marriage.

One fan took to X with photos of her transformation. The user uploaded two photos, one showing Lara before she married Eric and a pic of her recently.

In the first image, she is pictured in a plain navy blue top with her blond locks styled into a simple straight look and a natural, bare face. The second photo was a screengrab of her appearing on a panel, during which she was dressed in an army green collared blouse and sporting a full face of make-up.

Fans pointed out that she looked almost unrecognizable, considering her facial structure had changed and her lip and eye shape had changed noticeably. They also noted that her style had changed drastically – as she now appears to wear more bold and statement outfits for her outings and TV appearances.

With this is mind the Irish Star recently reached out to Dr Gizem Seymenoglu, a renowned cosmetic surgery expert from Longevtia, who spotted some telltale signs that Lara may have had a few tweaks here and there in recent years.

“A closer examination of Lara’s recent photos is suggestive of blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, in my opinion,” the facial aesthetics practitioner began after comparing a photo from 2008 with the present day.

The cost of blepharoplasty in the US can range from $3,359 to $8,054, depending on the type of surgery, the surgeon and the location. This cost doesn’t include anesthesia, operating room fees, or other related expenses.

“Looking at her now, her eyes look much more open and alert, and this may have been made possible by an upper eyelid surgery, which involves the removal of excess skin and muscle in addition to a small amount of fat,” she explained, noting, “The surgery can actually be quite effective in restoring the eyes’ youthful appearance.”

Dr Gizem also spotted, “From my perspective, her facial contours appear to have changed noticeably, and Botox and fillers seem like potential contributors to this development.”

“Her lifted eyebrows, in addition to the smooth skin around her eyes, mouth and forehead, suggest the involvement of Botox,” Dr Gizem suspected, adding, “And especially in the cheeks, I see signs of dermal fillers because they look quite plump and full, whereas they looked relatively less voluminous before.”

Away from injectables and surgeries, Dr Gizem also suggested, “Lara might just have a top-notch skincare routine.” She also pointed out, “Another thing that’s quite obvious when you look at Lara’s photos is that she probably takes really good care of her skin,” before guessing, “Facials and skin booster injections might be a part of it, so that her skin continues to have that healthy glow.”

It’s worth noting that Lara has never confirmed nor denied whether or not she has had plastic surgery.
