The [_Big Bang Theory_ star](http://people.com/tv/kaley-cuoco-marries-real-life-ex-johnny-galecki-in-big-bang-theory-opener/) reveals that she’s had a boob job and a nose job in the [December issue of _Women’s Health_](http://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/kaley-cuoco-december-issue). “Years ago, I had my nose done. And my boobs — best thing I ever did,” Cuoco says. “Recently I had a filler in a line in my neck I’ve had since I was 12.” “As much as you want to love your inner self … I’m sorry, you also want to look good. I don’t think you should do it for a man or anyone else, but if it makes you feel confident, that’s amazing.” The actress says that she has to [work to maintain her body](http://people.com/bodies/kaley-cuoco-we-tried-the-hot-yoga-class-that-sculpts-the-stars-incredible-abs/) in ways she didn’t before. “The bottom line is I’m not 21 anymore, so it used to be so easy and I didn’t have to do as much. But you’re getting a little older and I’ve got to cut things out,” Cuoco says in a behind-the-scenes video. “It’s important, it’s now part of my day. Working out is part of my day, eating right is part of my day.” Cuoco’s [drive and determination](http://people.com/tv/kaley-cuoco-talks-boyfriend-karl-cook-finding-love-again-post-divorce/) — in her workouts and as an actress — is what keeps her on top in Hollywood. “I don’t think success comes over night,” she says. “I’ve been doing this for over twenty years and it’s been a long road. If you really want it you’ve got to go for it, but that’s for anything … it takes a lot of work and a lot of drive and a lot of patience.” _This_ [_article_](http://people.com/bodies/kaley-cuoco-plastic-surgery-breast-nose/?xid=socialflow%5Ftwitter%5Fpeoplemag) _originally appeared on_ [_People.com_](http://people.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4574801/kaley-cuoco-plastic-surgery/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4574801/kaley-cuoco-plastic-surgery/"},"headline":"Big Bang Theory Star Kaley Cuoco Reveals She's Had Plastic Surgery","datePublished":"2016-11-17T15:29:07.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:03:54.292Z","description":"'Best thing I've ever done'","url":"https://time.com/4574801/kaley-cuoco-plastic-surgery/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbb0701111bfd3c33/6988aee48e0601a26b4684da/kaley-cuoco-big-bang-theory-plastic-surgery.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Julie Mazziotta / People"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbb0701111bfd3c33/6988aee48e0601a26b4684da/kaley-cuoco-big-bang-theory-plastic-surgery.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Late Night with Seth Meyers - Season 3","caption":"Late Night with Seth Meyers - Season 3","creditText":"NBC—NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4574801/kaley-cuoco-plastic-surgery/","name":"Big Bang Theory Star Kaley Cuoco Reveals She's Had Plastic Surgery"}}]}] ```
