Robbie Williams admitted he was interested in altering his appearance after shedding a dramatic amount of weight.
The 49-year-old pop star has lost two stone in recent months and he has now revealed he considered getting cosmetic surgery because he worried his eyes looked ‘hollow’.
As well as changing his facial features, the singer shared that he had also been thinking about having a hair transplant but was told his current offering was too thin for the procedure.
Chatting about his body woes, he told The Sun newspaper: ‘Everybody looks at bad plastic surgery and goes “God no, don’t do that”. But nobody sees the good plastic surgery as it’s not recognised.
‘Most people in my industry have got really good plastic surgery. I want some filler in the eyes as I look like I have hollow eyes.’
Robbie added of his plans for his hair: ‘I went to two people to see if they could help thicken my hair from harvesting from the back but apparently my hair is too thin to harvest any more. It is what it is.’
The former Take That star went on to open up about his skin care regime, revealing he shuns expensive cosmetic brands and instead uses Vaseline to keep his complexion looking good.
His revelations came after Robbie confessed he struggled with issues around his appearance and has battled body dysmorphia disorder (BDD) – a mental health condition which prompts someone to worry about flaws in their appearances which are often unnoticeable to others.
In a post on Instagram about his recent weight loss, the singer explained: ‘I could write a book about self loathing where my body image is concerned.
‘Like pure self hatred, the ugliness of feeling ugly. I’m body dysmorphic and on top of being dysmorphic at times I can be 40+ pounds over weight.
‘So you can imagine what my mind see’s. Or maybe you can’t either way its a f****** disaster.’
The Angels hitmaker admitted ‘the struggle is real’ and it was something he has dealt with for his whole life.
He continued: ‘At the moment I’m skinny…. but me being me my mind is going “F****** great Rob, you managed to get skinny and now your old, congrats, golf clap”.
‘The struggle is real. The sadness is shocking. I’ve had it all my life. And it won’t abate.
‘What is it that is hard wired in us, that is so calloused, that makes self acceptance and self love so difficult that it seems impossible?’
