Amy Schumer has recently opened up about her experience with cosmetic procedures.
On Sunday, the 40-year-old standup comedian shared a selfie from her dermatologist’s office, getting the fillers in her face dissolved after she was not pleased with the results.
Sharing a photo of herself with white cream on her cheeks, Schumer captioned, “I tried getting fillers. Turns out I was already full. Thank God you can dissolve them I looked like #Malificent [sic] thanks @drjlodnp.
Dr. Jodi LoGerfo, Schumer’s dermatologist, shared the photo and explained the process of dissolving fillers that soften facial wrinkles when injected into the skin.
She wrote, “Using dermal filler can be a wonderful way to replace lost volume and enhance the face, but filler placement is extremely important!”
The dermatologist added. “@amyschumer came to me after having filler elsewhere and we decided that where the filler was placed, was not ideal, so we dissolved it! Dissolving filler is a very simple and quick treatment. I injected hyaluronidase (an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid) to dissolve it!”
In 2014, Schumer shared her stance on the thriving industry of cosmetic treatments, offering a diplomatic approach. She told Cosmopolitan at the time, “I don’t judge anybody for having plastic surgery at all. I think the industry surrounding it and the drive to do it and how it seems like usually it’s never enough I think that’s bad. I don’t think it’s great for people.”
Schumer’s filler removal comes after she had undergone appendicectomy and hysterectomy in September due to endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of your uterus — the endometrium — grows outside your uterus, according to Mayo Clinic.
The Emmy winner also revealed that her doctor found a tumor in her appendix after the surgery. The story originally appeared on PEOPLE.
