John Stamos is getting candid about the cosmetic surgery he’s received — and the procedures he says that he’d never consider.
“I’m always with younger people or younger girls and stuff, so I don’t want to look super old,” Stamos, 62, admitted on the Wednesday, June 10, episode of the “Really Good” podcast, revealing he has no plans to undergo an invasive facelift. “I won’t do that. I’ve gotten Botox in my forehead, but not for a long time.”
The Full House alum further revealed that he had a rhinoplasty “when he was a kid” acting on General Hospital.
“I broke it when I was a kid. I got hit by a golf club,” Stamos explained of his reasoning for getting a nose job. “I just didn’t like the way it looked, and so I got it done and it didn’t look great. Then, I went and then I actually had it fixed by Michael Jackson‘s guy. He didn’t make me look like Michael Jackson.”
Jackson underwent multiple plastic cosmetic procedures years before his death in 2009. (The King of Pop died at age 50 after suffering cardiac arrest triggered by an acute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication.)
“I have never had my cheekbones done, never had my eyes done, never had my lips done,” Jackson said in a 1993 interview, revealing the procedures he said that he had done. “I try not to look in the mirror. I’m never happy with what I see.”
The “Billie Jean” singer, who battled the skin condition vitiligo prior to his death, has asserted that he’s only had two nose jobs.
“Everybody in Hollywood gets plastic surgery,” Jackson said in his 2003 Living With Michael Jackson documentary. “Plastic surgery was not invented for Michael Jackson.”
As for Stamos, he’s long been candid about how he manages his aesthetics while aging.
While some prefer to fly under the radar when they get plastic surgery, celebrities including Denise Richards, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jessi Ngatikaura and Heidi Montag keep it candid. After getting some of her enhancements reversed in 2013, Montag exclusively told Us Weekly that she struggled with the decision. Thank You! You have successfully subscribed. […]
“I am getting old, although I don’t feel it. I take care of myself. I stopped drinking 10 years ago. That’s why I’m alive,” Stamos exclusively told Us Weekly in an August 2025, reflecting on his sobriety. “I never would have met my wife [Caitlin McHugh] if I was still drinking. I’m happy where I’m at in my career, but I think I would be a lot further along if I’d stopped sooner.”
He continued, “I got the job done, but I could have done it better, and I could have been more connected. Getting married and having a child, that’s kept me young and kept me alive. I think that’s helped with my longevity.”
Stamos credits must of his seemingly everlasting youthfulness to his wife and their 8-year-old son, Billy, over any skincare regimens.
“I don’t do a lot. I wash my face, depends on if there’s some scrub around,” the actor told Us. “I work out three or four times a week. I do this electric muscle-stimulant thing where you put a suit on, but you only wear it for 20 minutes. But good sleep now is important. Having a young son helps.”
