Heidi Montag Reveals Details of Her 2009 Plastic Surgery
Published 2 years ago on Sep 19, 2023

At the age of 23, Montag underwent ten cosmetic procedures simultaneously, performed by the late Dr. Frank Ryan. These surgeries included a chin reduction, breast augmentation, rhinoplasty revision, brow lift, liposuction, facial fat injections, and pinning her ears back.

Heidi Montag recalls her 2009 plastic surgery overhaul on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast.

Montag revealed that her surgeon had assured her of a quick recovery, but in reality, it took over a year for her to heal fully. During this time, she struggled to speak due to the impact of the surgeries, which included a notable chin reduction. She also experienced severe pain and, at one point, had a near-death experience.

The reality star, pictured here with husband Spencer Pratt, says she got part of her “chin sawed off” as one of her whopping 10 cosmetic procedures at age 23.

In more detail, Montag described the physical toll of the surgeries as "overwhelming and painful." She said that she felt like she had been "hit by a truck" and that her body was "in shock." She also experienced difficulty breathing and swallowing, and she was unable to eat solid food for several weeks.


Montag's near-death experience occurred when she was administered an incorrect dosage of the opioid Demerol for pain relief. As a result, her heart rate slowed to just five beats per minute. Her husband, Spencer Pratt, was informed that she was in critical condition and that she might not survive. Fortunately, Montag was able to recover, but the experience left her shaken.

Montag, pictured here before any elective work, said the “pain” from her surgeries made filming “The Hills” Season 6 difficult.

The physical and emotional challenges of Montag's plastic surgery overhaul had a significant impact on her life. She was unable to participate in the filming of the final season of "The Hills" and she required nursing care at her home for several months. The ordeal led to her departure from the show halfway through Season 6.
