Did Jenna Ortega Get Plastic Surgery? the Truth Behind Her Dramatic Hollywood Transformation
By Robert Thorne
The conversation reached high volume between late 2022 and 2023, right when Wednesday smashed viewership records on Netflix. Viral TikTok edits comparing Ortega’s 2016 Disney appearances with her high-fashion awards circuit appearances accumulated tens of millions of views. On platforms like X and Reddit, commenters claimed her sharp cheeks and sculpted cheekbones could only be produced by a surgeon's scalpel.
The timing coincided with an industry-wide obsession with buccal fat excision. Prominent figures across entertainment had visibly slimmed down their lower faces, sparking widespread discussion about cosmetic alterations. When Ortega arrived at major premieres featuring deep submalar hollows, she was swept into that narrative. Many fans believed she had joined the trend of stripping structural fat pads to highlight her cheekbones.
