**New York, NY** – Bradley Cooper’s recent appearance alongside girlfriend Gigi Hadid at her Vogue cover party has ignited a storm of speculation, with some fans claiming the actor looks unrecognizable and even comparing him to Charlie Sheen. The viral photos have fueled rumors of possible plastic surgery, prompting commentary from plastic surgeons.
Following Hadid’s celebration at Monsieur, Baz Luhrmann’s East Village bar, social media was flooded with comments questioning Cooper’s changed appearance. “Definitely had some work done!” one user posted, echoing the sentiments of many.
Dr. Rian Maercks, founder of The Maercks Institute, analyzed the photos and suggested Cooper may have undergone a facelift. He pointed to a “firm jawline” juxtaposed against what he described as “midfacial descent,” leading to a visual imbalance. Dr. Maercks believes this imbalance may be due to common facelift pitfalls, potentially emphasizing lateral dissection over the central facial ligaments, resulting in a “caricature-like resemblance.”
However, Beverly Hills-based plastic surgeon Dr. John Diaz disagreed, attributing the changes to the “normal aging process.” He cited loss of volume under the eyes and cheekbones, nasal tip descent, and thinning lips as natural signs of aging. While denying surgery, Dr. Diaz suggested Cooper may have had “Botox injected too low on his forehead.”
Despite Dr. Diaz’s assessment, many online remain unconvinced. Comments such as “that cannot possibly be Bradley” and “Charlie Sheen rebirthed” continue to circulate.
The speculation also touches on Cooper’s relationship with Hadid, who recently turned 30. Some users attributed Cooper’s alleged “work” to the pressures of dating a younger woman.
Cooper and Hadid have been publicly dating since May, following months of speculation.
