CHELSEA Houska’s sculpted chin and lips do not seem the same as those of the troubled girl who first shot to fame in 16 and Pregnant.
But as allegations begin to grow that the Teen Mom 2 alum has gone under the knife, a plastic surgeon has weighed in and agreed.

Recently, Chelsea, 31, took to her Instagram Stories and posted a clip promoting a nutritional supplement.
As the mom-of-two stood in her kitchen and made up a healthy drink, Chelsea spoke about the product’s wellness benefits.
When her video appeared on a Teen Mom message board, fans were struck more by how she looked.
The original poster wrote: “Unrecognizable.”
Another said: “Wow. She is unrecognizable here, if not for her voice I’d wonder if this was the same girl on Teen Mom.”
In an exclusive interview, plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Westreich told The U.S. Sun: “Chelsea looks obviously different to before.
“The main cosmetic work she has done is her lips and chin.
“I think there has been some lip filler and manipulation of the chin using filler as well.
“She’s not had a chin implant.
“Chelsea previously had a cleft in her chin, like a dimple in the middle.
“But from around March 2022, it’s gone. I don’t see any real clefting of her chin.
“She may have had filler done somewhere around there to get rid of it.”

Previously, Chelsea has come clean about splashing out on cosmetic treatments including injecting Botox and filler.
In November, she shared on Instagram that she was getting lip filler.
Chelsea videoed herself before a cosmetic appointment. “It’s cold here and it’s snowing,” she said at the time
Chelsea added: “But you know what warms me up? Warms up my little heart? Getting my lips plumped up for the holidays.”
In 2016 Chelsea hinted at getting Botox from her dad, who is a dentist.
Again on Instagram, she posted a picture with the label: “Botox party.”
Chelsea’s Instagram feed is also packed with pictures of her posing in outfits showing off her weight loss.
After joining 16 and Pregnant, Chelsea welcomed daughter Aubree, whom she shares with her ex, Adam Lind.

She went on to have three further kids with her now husband, Cole DeBoer while filming for Teen Mom 2.
Standing at a petite 5ft 2ins, Chelsea’s pregnancy journeys and weight gain were featured in the show.
In 2020, after the birth of her second child, Chelsea decided to slim down – losing 50 lbs ahead of her wedding.

“If Chelsea had a lot of weight loss, she may have wanted to redefine her jawline a little bit,” explained Dr Westreich.
“Sometimes your jawline can get a little bit soft.
“When people are trying to improve their jawline, they are trying to narrow the appearance of the face.
“So a lot of times they will do some chin filler.
“If Chelsea had a lot of weight loss, they may have put some chin filler in there.”

Chelsea previously starred on Teen Mom 2 for 10 seasons before transitioning to HGTV with Cole.
Now they host an Idaho-bassed home makeover show, Down Home Fab.
Chelsea’s fashion influencer career also kicked off in 2020 after she left MTV.
At the time, she started out posting selfies modeling outfits and clothing items for her friend, Laurie Karslon.
Chelsea’s revenue streams also include Belle & Rae Co, a photo preset company.
Our expert notes Chelsea’s spending on cosmetic work is not as much as some Hollywood stars.
“The cost for Chelsea’s cosmetic work is going to be nominal,” added Dr Westreich.
“I would not be shocked if she did a little Botox as well – although there is nothing demonstrable.
“Her main changes are the weight loss, the hair, filler in the chin, and filler in the lips.
“She had a lot of weight loss, so it is also possible that she needed some body work.
“She is also still young, so it is very possible that she would not need it.
