Adriana Lima stepped out for a no make-up stroll with her supportive husband on Thursday after clapping back at shocked fans who branded her ‘unrecognizable’ on the red carpet.
The 42-year-old Brazilian model wore a black hoodie, matching leggings and black sneakers while walking with her beau Andre Lemmers and their dog in Los Angeles.
Adriana had her long dark hair pulled back showing her flawless complexion and laughed while walking with Andre.
Andre kept it simple in a grey hoodie, black sweatpants and grey trainers and affectionately caressed Adriana’s face while walking the dog.
Adriana left fans shocked over her new look on Tuesday after attending the Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes premiere in Los Angeles.

While she is one of the most influential Victoria’s Secret Angels of all time, her latest appearance raised eyebrows due to the noticeable changes to her face over just the past month.
‘I would have had no idea that was the same person,’ one social media user wrote on X while others speculated that the Brazilian bombshell, 42, might be ‘still swollen’ from a cosmetic procedure, like a ‘facelift’ or ‘fillers.’
Another wrote: ‘OH NOOOOOO! What did she do to her face?! and WHY????? She was perfect before.’
Three plastic surgeons offered their expert opinions to DailyMail.com about her makeover and they suggested fillers, a brow lift, Botox, fat transfer and a fox-eye lift may have altered her appearance.
Following online discussions about her appearance, the supermodel took to Instagram to break her silence over plastic surgery rumors.
‘This is the face of a tired mom of one teenage girl, two pre-teens, one active boy, a 1 year old learning to walk, and three dogs… thanks for your concern,’ she captioned a makeup-free selfie from her kitchen.
Many fans stuck up for Lima as they called her ‘response to criticisms about her face’ being ‘the reality of a mother’s life, juggling the responsibilities of raising children and managing a household’ inspiring and relatable.
‘Her gratitude for the concern adds a touch of grace to her acknowledgment of the challenges she faces,’ one Twitter user said.

‘What did she do to her face?’: Fans were shocked by her new look
Back in 2017, Lima revealed that she wanted ‘people to look’ at her ‘beyond’ her ‘face/body.’
More recently, the beauty explained that motherhood changed ‘everything’ in her life as her beauty and self-care regimes have gone ‘out the window’ at times to focus on her children.
Still, she said: ‘But as my two daughters have gotten older, I’ve realized that they copy a lot of what I do and my habits, and it’s important for me to make sure they’re copying good ones.’
Additionally, she told Vogue India in 2020, that she allows them to ‘experiment with my make-up, masks and creams.’

‘I try to teach them to love the skin they’re in and eat healthily for their bodies and to also practise positive mental wellness through meditation,’ she told the outlet.
At the time, Adriana also pointed out that the fashion world still has ‘a long way to go’ to become a truly inclusive industry.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel thinks the industry can still do more to ‘send a message of representation’ to the world.
She said: ‘I am happy that it has become more inclusive of people of different races and sizes, but of course there is still a long way to go.
‘My hope is that the industry sends a message of representation. I want any young girl or boy to be able to open up a magazine or website or Instagram, however they view fashion, and feel represented in a beautiful and positive way.’
New York-based plastic surgeon Dr. Jennifer Levine suggested a number of procedures that could have led to Adriana’s ‘swollen’ appearance, including fillers and a surgical brow lift – although she noticed that the so-called swelling could also be caused by medications or health issues.
‘It appears that her face is swollen around the eyes and mouth especially, as her eyes seem smaller, the brow is unnaturally angled and her smile seems less genuine,’ she explained.
‘Some changes to her face can occur with aging,’ Dr. Levine continued, adding ‘medications or health issues can also cause some of these changes’.
‘It is possible that she has had a combination of fillers, threads and some neuromodulators.’
‘It is also possible for her to have had a surgical brow lift,’ she went on, citing the extreme tilt to the side of Adriana’s brow.
She explained it ‘can be achieved with PDO threads, which are placed below the skin and have barbs that help lift and reposition the tissue.’
Beverly Hills, California-based aesthetics doctor Dr. Rahi Sarbaziha also thinks Adriana might have had PDO threads, which is a procedure that uses dissolvable sutures to lift the skin, before opting for a different surgery.

‘It looks like she may have upgraded to brow surgery to create her sharp, angled brows,’ Dr. Rahi said.
‘It’s also very possible that the procedure was recent and the surgical swelling that hasn’t yet resolved,’ Dr. Rahi considered, adding that ‘surgical swelling can take up to one year to go down.’
Dr. Rahi explained that she appears to have had ‘visible filler in her lips and cheeks, and some type of neurotoxin in the forehead and brow area.’ The aesthetics specialist continued: ‘In my opinion, she’s had a lot done but it’s good-quality work,’
‘She doesn’t have any visible pores or scars, so I would assume she’s had some skin rejuvenation procedures, like microneedling, to keep her skin plump and hydrated,’ Dr. Rahi said, referencing the minimally invasive procedure that stimulates collagen to keep skin looking youthful.
Meanwhile, New York City-based plastic surgeon Dr. Norman Rowe summed up the Brazilian beauty’s new look in three words: ‘Fill ‘er up.’
‘She has had quite a bit of filler injected into her cheeks, jawline and lips,’ Dr. Rowe theorized. ‘This is usually done in an attempt to lift the cheeks and address any minor skin sagging.’
Dr. Rowe also believed Adriana had Botox in her forehead.
Another New York-based cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Ariel Ostad, assessed the transformation ‘could be from a combination of hyaluronic acid filler and fat transfer,’ which added volume to the face.
‘Hyaluronic acid fillers are great and can redefine and contour the face to treat an individual’s concerns but when done by the wrong injector, it can cause the patient to look too overdone and can completely change the patient’s features,’ Dr. Ostad warned.
The cosmetic surgeon continued: ‘There are a few different procedures that could have contributed to the change in her brows, eye shape, and face.
Adriana was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1999 to 2018.
