Marc Jacobs reveals he has had a facelift as he shares snap of his heavily-bandaged face

Marc Jacobs has revealed he has had a facelift.

The fashion designer, 58, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a picture of his face wrapped in bandages, with drains to remove excess blood.

Sharing his delight over the procedure, Marc captioned the image with hashtags that read ‘f**k gravity’ and ‘livelovelift.’

The doctor he tagged in the post – Dr. Andrew Jacono – is a top New York facial plastic surgeon, who is renowned for his mini-face lifts.

Marc’s friends were impressed with his transparency, with costume designer June Ambrose commenting: ‘The transparency is everything!

Snatch it darlinggggg! Happy healing,’ actress Demi Mazer writing:

‘Congrats,’ and TV star Michelle Visage saying: ‘Good for YOU.’

Meanwhile, Marc has previously discussed how changing his diet and starting to exercise transformed his body and his confidence.

He said: ‘I had 21 percent body fat. I was in and out of the hospital because I had flare-ups of ulcerative colitis. I’d be in the office for 16 hours a day, six of which were in the bathroom because I was so ill. 

‘I ate nothing but junk food. Basically, the doctor said, “We’re going to have to remove your colon”. And I said, “I’m not doing that!”  

‘So I went to a nutritionist named Lindsey Duncan, and he said, “If you are 100 percent compliant with what I tell you to do, you will be in better shape than you’ve ever been in, and you will not have to have your colon removed.” I said, “Okay, sign me up.” 

‘When I started to feel better, and when my stomach wasn’t hurting, and when I wasn’t on the toilet all day, and when I could look at myself in the mirror, and when I went from 21 percent body fat to five percent body fat and I had muscle, I was like, This is great!

‘When guys started looking at me and asking me out on dates, I felt way better about myself. So it was hard to keep my clothes on, actually.’

He added: ‘And whenever I was asked to take my clothes off, I was like, “Sure! I haven’t worked out for three years to keep this all under wraps.”

‘Everything changed. I cut my hair, I got contact lenses, I started to groom and get manicures and pedicures. I started to get my hair cut every two weeks.

‘Before, I never took care of my appearance. I was like, “Who cares? I’m in the studio 16 hours a day, and nobody sees me.” Everything, it all sort of changed. 

‘My home life changed. I wanted to have people over for dinner. I cared about interiors because I wanted to have guests over all the time.’
