WHAT a difference a decade does or doesn’t (in some cases) make.
As we prepare to welcome 2021, it’s fair to say that a lot has changed in ten years, including celebs’ faces.
But while some look almost unrecognisable in these side-by-side comparison snaps, lots of lucky celebrities look like they haven’t aged at all in TEN years while some look even younger.
Some, like Simon Cowell, even look younger than they did back then with many of celebs admitting to extreme beauty regimes to maintain their looks.
A few admit to the odd nip and tuck, but others simply thank Mother Nature for their youthful looks.
Here’s how the stars looked 10 years ago versus what they looked like in 2020…
Michelle Keegan
From playing a fiesty school girl in Corrie to becoming the Army’s admirable Georgie Lane, Michelle Keegan has effectively grown up on our screens.
She has always insisted that she doesn’t have surgery to thank for her appearance but she maintains her looks with a series of non-surgical treatments.
Doc to the stars Dr Esho recently revealed Michelle visits his Harley Street clinic for HydraFacials, Vitamin C Skin Resurfacing treatments and Dermapen micro needling.
As well as her costly beauty routine, Michelle has ditched heavy eye makeup for a natural glow with a glossy plump pout.
And she’s not been afraid to switch up her hairstyle over the years experimenting with the colour blonde, extensions and a shorter cut.
Carol Vorderman
Voluptuous star Carol Vorderman looks a world away from her fresh faced Countdown days.
The TV geek has transformed over the past 10 years, turning into a flirty glamourpuss famous for her enviable curves – to which she holds two Rear of the Year awards.
Gone are the days where she would grace TV screens in 80s-inspired clothes, she now shares selfies of her impossible curves and miraculously wrinkle free face.
Now 59, Carol has always given mixed messages when asked about surgery tweakments.
In 2012, she admitted wanting ‘a little rejuvenation’ but more recently she insisted she’s ‘the same old Vorders’ and promised she hadn’t been under the knife for bottom implants.
In 2010, the TV icon sported curly brunette locks, pearly whites and plumped cheekbones while 10 years later, she boasts a flawless complexion and blonde locks.
Simon Cowell
Music mogul Simon, 61, appears to have reversed the ageing process over the last ten years thanks to a healthy new vegan lifestyle – and a few tweaks here and there.
The father-of-one admitted that he has received a helping hand from cosmetic procedures.
He previously admitted to having a ‘little too much Botox’ in the past, as he regularly shows off his completely smooth head, bright pearly teeth and remarkable wrinkle-free neck.
Self-confessed Botox lover Simon previously admitted to having a £2,000 treatment dubbed a 21st century facelift.
The Silhouette Soft Lift procedure involves sewing bioplastic-infused thread into the face and neck and tugging it to get rid of sagging skin.
More recently Simon has overhauled his diet by becoming vegan and ditching meat.
Holly Willoughby
This Morning bombshell Holly Willoughby is as stunning today as she was 10 years ago. The star, now 39, has barely-changing looks and her blonde tresses haven’t changed at all.
However the star has swapped frumpy updos for sleek styles and wears a chic wardrobe.
Just like her silver fox co-star Philip Schofield, Holly seems to be aging backwards – and her skin remains blemish free.
However Holly isn’t afraid to admit that she has regular treatments and revealed she has microneedling facials to generate new collagen and promote smoother, firmer and toned skin.
She shared a video of herself enjoying the procedure at home, captioning the post: ‘Feline fine facial time’.
Meghan Markle
Meghan Markle has always strenuously denied having any tweakments to maintain her glow.
While her face remains the same, it seems she has picked a darker shade for her raven locks.
But we know that Meghan, 39, loves facials and enjoys experimenting with skincare.
It was recently revealed that she enjoys Dernalux LED phototherapy facials as well as being a huge fan of facialist Nichola Joss and her unique inner facial technique.
Kate Middleton
Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton is famous for her effortless looks and natural beauty.
Kate has maintained her youthful glow over the past 10 years and the only thing that has changed are her hairstyles. But from bouncy blow-dries to royal up-dos, Kate’s locks have always been the envy of the nation.
She has also experimented with makeup, leaving her former black eyeliner and pink blush for dewy, barely-there looks.
Prince Harry
Royal Prince Harry has gone from looking like a dapper young prince – with a glowing babyface – to a handsome man with a stylish beard.
The prince’s face has certainly transformed over the past 10 years and it now appears more defined and masculine with his features more prominent.
His fair eyebrows and famous red hairstyle have remained however his hair looks slightly thinner and a few wrinkles have started to appear as he has aged.
Prince William
While Prince William’s face remains unchanged – other than natural signs of ageing – his hair has drastically developed.
Prince William’s hairstyle 10 years ago was a head of dark blonde locks perfectly positioned in a sleek, tidy style.
But 10 years on and a lot has changed. After beginning to lose his hair in his late 20’s, Prince William’s hairline has been receding ever since.
And in 2018 he reportedly braved the shave. We still think Prince William looks as dapper as ever, albeit with a little less hair.
Susanna Reid
It’s been five years since Susanna Reid made her Good Morning Britain debut with Piers Morgan – and we’re not the only ones who think she hasn’t aged a day since.
Susanna is not believed to have had any surgery – and her age-defying looks are down to hero beauty products and solid skincare.
However she previously revealed she has her hair dyed every fortnight in a bid to battle the greys and she has a weekly spray tan to maintain her constant glow.
She looks almost unrecognisable to how she looked on the BBC 10 years ago – with a stern persona and short-cropped haircut.
Kylie Jenner
Makeup mogul Kylie is certainly one Kardashian who has been constantly questioned about whether she has had cosmetic enhancements.
Kylie has admitted experimenting with fillers in the past but has categorically denied surgery.
She previously wrote: “These plastic surgery rumours hurt my feelings to be honest and are kinda insulting.”
However her 10 year photo comparison is drastic and she has ditched her preteen heavy eyeliner and thin lips for the ultra glamorous version of herself she is today.
Her body has also had a dramatic transformation and while surgery rumours continue, the star insists her body has simply changed as she’s got older.
Amanda Holden
Britain’s Got Talent star Amanda Holden looks as glam today as she did 10 years ago.
Amanda continues to look youthful as she creeps close to 50 and has raved about Botox in the past; she has been using the freezing injections to rid her wrinkles for years.
However the glam beauty has denied ever having her lips aesthetically enhanced – despite her pout looking plumper than it did 10 years ago.
She had her teeth straightened using an Invisalign brace and previously revealed she has Collagen Wave facials to maintain her youthful complexion and give her an ‘incredible lift.’
Justin Bieber
In 10 years, Justin Bieber has gone from being baby faced with an iconic sweeping fringe hairstyle to a sexy adult full of tattoos.
Justin’s appearance has evolved since he rose to fame and his face has aged over the years.
His plumped fresh-faced look has developed into a sculpted jawline, a range of different hair cuts and colours as well as facial hair.
Katie Price
Model Katie Price, 42, has been going under the knife since 1998 and while 10 years ago, she sported glossy black locks and plumped lips, her looks today are very different.
She had a rhinoplasty and veneers fitted in 2017 and 10 years later, had her very first face lift.
The Silhouette face lift – which uses permanent surgical threads – wasn’t the end either and she went on to have another face and eye lift in Turkey as well as a skin tightening procedure.
She now has a taunt-face with defined brows, plump lips and a flawless forehead as well as a lighter hairdo.
