Rachel Uchitel has revealed the incredible results of her extensive $100,000 plastic surgery makeover.The podcaster and former mistress of Tiger Woods, 51, had a deep-plane facelift, a tightening brow lift, an under-eye fat transfer, a chin fat transfer, and a 'columella' nose revision back in August in a bid to turn back the clock.Uchitel, who had her surgeries performed by board-certified celebrity surgeon Dr Ira Savetsky, said that she had 'f***ed up her face' by overdoing fillers for years.Because of this, she had to spend two weeks getting her fillers dissolved before she could even go under the knife.'I deflated my entire face before I got surgery, and my surgery was 11 and a half hours, and I was under for nine,' she told the Daily Mail. Dr Savetsky added, 'Rachel came to me with a very clear goal: she wanted to move away from the overfilled appearance she had developed over years of aesthetic treatments and return to a more natural, balanced version of herself.

This made the surgery significantly more technically demanding than a typical primary facelift,' he continued.He added, 'Despite extensive dissolving treatments, I still encountered residual filler during surgery.' Instead of adding more fillers to Uchitel's face, Dr Savetsky instead turned to fat transfers to restore her facial volume. 'We used her own fat, employing a combination of microfat and nanofat, to strategically address volume loss in her temples, midface, under-eye region, and chin,' he said.

'Everyone is like, "Wow, you look amazing." And the word isn't, "Oh, you had something done." The word is, "You look really refreshed!"' she said.'There's so much shame around ageing and beauty, and what is beautiful and what is natural, right? And you should feel good about wanting to maintain whatever level you want to maintain yourself,' she continued. 'I'm 51. I just got married. I care about what I look like.'Uchitel was so pleased with the results of her makeover that her husband even went to Dr Savetsky for a brow lift, which he was thrilled with.Dr Savetsky said that Uchitel's decision to do away with fillers represents 'a much larger shift' in aesthetic surgery.'For years, the trend was toward more volume, more filler, and more exaggerated features. Now, patients are increasingly coming to me asking for the exact opposite. They want their natural facial contours back. They want to look refreshed without looking artificially enhanced,' he said.'Rachel didn't want a new face. She wanted her own face back.'
