Abby Lee Miller found a surprisingly simple fix for one of her biggest beauty frustrations.
The âDance Momsâ star, 60, recently underwent an ear rejuvenation procedure with Beverly Hills celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Patrick Davis after becoming increasingly bothered by stretched earlobes caused by years of wearing heavy earrings.
âIt was amazing,â Miller exclusively told Page Six of her procedure. âEveryoneâs going to be flocking to their doctors to do this.â
âMy mom always used to complain about her earlobes and how they looked,â she explained. âThen I started noticing it myself because I would put an earring in my ear and the whole earring would go through. The hoops would flip all the way around with the back and the whole thing in it.â
Rather than opting for surgery, Davis suggested a much simpler approach with hyaluronic acid filler injections.
Miller rated the pain level at a âtwoâ out of 10 and said, âItâs just like, âBoom, boom, boom,ââ before she was done with the procedure, which she completed in less than 30 minutes on May 29.
The procedure cost approximately $1,000, significantly less than the $3,000 to $4,000 surgical alternative, according to Davis.
The ear rejuvenation procedure addresses volume loss in the earlobes, which can occur naturally with age and be accelerated by years of wearing heavy earrings, the facial plastic surgeon explained.
âThe ear itself can be a tell-tale sign of the aging process,â Davis explained. âA little bit of filler in the earlobe can plump up the earlobe that has shrunken in size or isnât holding earrings properly.â
Davis added that the results were visible âinstantlyâ for the reality TV star. And in the two days after her procedure, she could see âeven more plumping,â he shared.
Miller admitted she didnât quite follow her doctorâs post-op instructions, however.
âHe didnât want me to wear earrings for like a week, and I couldnât do it because I had an event that I had to go to,â she said with a laugh. âBut I could see results immediately.â
The television personality, who continues to travel the world teaching despite years of health challenges, said sheâs already considering another round of treatment.
âHeâs going to do more,â she revealed, noting that Davis is âfabulous, kind and gentleâ and âwent very cautiouslyâ for the first round of treatment.
Beyond cosmetic procedures, Miller said her main focus remains on the career that made her a household name: teaching dance classes.
âI donât know if itâs really resilient or if itâs just passionate about what I do and I want to keep doing it,â she said. âWhen I ask my class, âDid anyone here start to dance because of âDance Moms?â and I see those hands go up, I know I did something right.â
