Jennifer Lawrence Shares Why She Recently Got Cosmetic Surgery

As she gears up for the debut of her much-anticipated beauty brand, Jennifer Lawrence is opening up about her recent experience with cosmetic surgery.

In a profile published by The Cut this week, the “Silver Linings Playbook” actor confirmed she underwent a breast lift shortly after the birth of her second child in early 2025.

“I want to be a sexy mom,” she said. “At drop-off, I want to look like a woman that has her shit together even when I’ve just woken up and don’t have my shit together.”

Though Lawrence didn’t share further details about the procedure, she told the outlet she also plans to get a facelift at some point in the future.

Lawrence, 36, previously hinted at her intent to get a breast lift in an October 2025 interview with The New Yorker. At the time, she was reflecting on a love scene in her 2023 movie “No Hard Feelings,” and said she was gearing up to appear nude once again in an undisclosed project.

“Everything bounced back, pretty much, after the first one,” she said, referring to the two children she shares with her husband, art dealer Cooke Maroney. “Second one, nothing bounced back.”

“I want to be a sexy mom,” actor Jennifer Lawrence told The Cut this week while confirming she’d recently undergone a breast lift.

When journalist Jia Tolentino asked if she’d feel as compelled to go under the knife if she wasn’t an actor, Lawrence quipped: “Maybe I wouldn’t be hustling to the appointment in the same way. But I think yes.”

Elsewhere in her New Yorker chat, the Oscar winner said she regularly gets Botox. When asked about the “seemingly ubiquitous new style” of facelifts that have become popular, she said she had yet to receive one, but expected that to change: “Believe me, I’m gonna!”

Compared to many of her Hollywood peers, Lawrence has been uncharacteristically frank in interviews when it comes to plastic surgery, as well as her hope of getting more work done.

Speaking to Vogue last month, the actor said her profession made certain procedures beyond what she described as “baby Botox,” or microdosed injections intended to smooth skin, more challenging.

“Oh, I’m really nervous about these fat transfers. I support other people doing them because I want to continue to watch and see what happens, but I don’t know about that,” she explained. “I mean, I would love to have a buccal fat removal. I can’t because everybody would know, but just know that I want that.”

Lawrence is set to return to the big screen next month when she reprises the role of Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping.”

This week, she unveiled Mes, a “biodesigned haircare” brand that she created in partnership with Arcaea founder and CEO Jasmina Aganovic. In her chat with The Cut, she said she saw the brand as an extension of her acting work.

“It just seemed like a new way of going about things. This is what I’ve been waiting for,” she said.
