Ashley Judds face has changed over the years due to a combination of medical treatments, side effects from necessary medications, and a severe accident. In February 2021, Judd disclosed that she nearly lost her leg after a horrible fall in the Congo rainforest. The fall fractured her tibia, and as a result, she developed hot flashes, along with other menopausal health conditions. Additionally, Judd has suffered from chronic migraines and has received Botox injections and corticosteroid treatment, which have caused changes to her appearance. In 2012, Judd was also accused of having plastic surgery after a clip of her with a swollen face and some excess weight went viral on Twitter. However, she clarified that she was receiving Botox injections to aid her migraines. In a recent interview with InStyle magazine, Judd addressed the rumors, saying that the changes in her appearance are due to a combination of aging, weight loss, and sun damage.
