Ricki Lake is getting candid about going under the knife<\/a> \u2014 admitting her decision to undergo a facelift wasn\u2019t too carefully planned.<\/p>\n

“I didn’t do any research when I decided very impulsively to have my face done,” Lake said on the “Inside Edit”<\/a> podcast.<\/p>\n

“I met with him on the next available [appointment]. I had my consult, I booked the next available appointment. So that was in mid-June. I booked for July 18. Never looked back.”<\/p>\n

The former talk show host said the sudden move came after a dramatic weight loss that left her dealing with excess skin.<\/p>\n

“I had just lost 40 pounds<\/a> and I had this hanging,” she said, pointing to the area under her chin. “And it wasn’t just like that I didn’t like what I saw or wanted to look younger. I have gray hair. It’s not about that. It’s like, I had an appendage hanging that wasn’t going to grow back, like come back up.”<\/p>\n

The “Hairspray” star framed the choice as practical, but what sealed the deal was seeing a friend\u2019s dramatic transformation up close.<\/p>\n

“I saw her eight days after her surgery and not only did she look amazing, she was euphoric. She was like a different person \u2014 she was just on top of the world, and I was like, \u2018I’ll have what she’s having.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Despite the lack of research, Lake said the results \u2014 and recovery \u2014 exceeded expectations.<\/p>\n

“I healed so quickly. I hosted an event at the Academy Museum two weeks after my surgery. I looked flawless. Flawless.”<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the first time Lake has gone public about changing her look.<\/p>\n

Last June, she admitted to plastic surgery after a dramatic weight-loss transformation<\/a> during an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live” with host Andy Cohen.<\/p>\n

After talking to him candidly about her hair loss, she said, “I\u2019ve also had, and I\u2019ll reveal this to you [although] I\u2019ve told other people. I\u2019ve had a lower face and neck lift.”<\/p>\n

As Cohen continued to praise her appearance and said she looked “so good,” Lake raised her hands under her chin to highlight her jawline.<\/p>\n

“Thank you, I kind of think it\u2019s the best facelift I\u2019ve ever seen,” Lake added. “And my doctor, let me give a shoutout, because he\u2019s a genius.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
