The Bachelorette alum Kaitlyn Bristowe has insisted she's never going to stop doing cosmetic procedures to her face, regardless of the fact haters often criticize her ever-changing appearance.

Late last week, Kaitlyn documented how she had a fibroblast plasma treatment utilizing tiny lasers, which resulted in red, rash-like blotches on her face.

Kaitlyn is now recovering from the procedure, and she hasn't been shy about sharing her progress with her social-media followers.
"Everyone's like stop doing stuff to your face," Kaitlyn, 38, said via Instagram Stories on Saturday, February 3.

"I will never. I love skincare. I love having bright, tight, glowy skin. I love it."
Kaitlyn acknowledged in January how she's been "drawing a lot of negative attention" lately, especially in light of her new romance with The Bachelorette 16 winner Zac Clark, who was previously engaged to Tayshia Adams.
Kaitlyn, for instance, has been accused of breaking "girl code" with Tayshia since the women are friends and had co-hosted back-to-back seasons of The Bachelorette in 2021.
Kaitlyn was also bashed for allegedly trying to get on-camera as much as she could -- with some fans claiming she's desperate for attention -- during The Golden Bachelor couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist's The Golden Wedding special that aired live in early January on ABC.
Kaitlyn also recently confessed her ex-fiance, Jason Tartick, "disappointed" her in the way that he had handled gossip about her relationship with Zac.

"I'm a little bit disappointed. I'm going to try to not get emotional -- because I cried all day yesterday -- but it's really disappointing to me, the way that Jason's kind of leaning into the victim mentality," Kaitlyn shared on the January 4 episode of her "Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe" podcast.
"I don't want to dismiss that he's hurting. I don't want to dismiss that his feelings are valid and his feelings are hurting. But I have talked to him so openly and honestly. And I am [hurting too]. We have been so transparent with each other to have respect for one another."

Kaitlyn had hosted a New Year's Eve party at her new home in Nashville, TN, on December 31, and the Instagram account @BachelorNation.scoop posted a video of Kaitlyn and Zac looking cozy as they counted down to midnight together.
The footage sparked gossip they're currently dating -- and that Kaitlyn possibly cheated on Jason before they officially announced their split in August 2023.

Kaitlyn issued a public statement denying she had ever cheated on Jason, who, hours later, responded to the noise and wrote via Instagram, "Jan 2, 2024. The first official day of 2024."
And on top of all that, Kaitlyn's Instagram account is always flooded with negative comments about how she looks "so different" from when she first found fame.
In June 2021, Kaitlyn clapped back at trolls slamming how her appearance had changed drastically from when she had competed on Chris Soules' season of The Bachelor and also starred on The Bachelorette's eleventh season in 2015.
One Twitter user wrote at the time, "Can anyone tell me what's different about [Kaitlyn]'s look? I can't put my finger on it #TheBachelorette."
Kaitlyn replied, "[Six] years since I was on the show, Brow lift, brow micro blading, got my teeth bonded, some filler In my lips, aging, darker hair, and I finally learned how to contour."

"Oh and I put on some weight," the former Dancing with the Stars champion added.

And by a "brow lift," Kaitlyn clarified how she "never went under the knife" for it.
"I just got Botox to life the brows, yeah," Kaitlyn noted.
Another person commented, "Bah god [Kaitlyn]'s face is BUSTED. #TheBachelorette."
And Kaitlyn tweeted in reply, "So sick of women commenting on my face. Jesus."
While Kaitlyn has received her fair share of criticism from The Bachelor viewers, she still has many loyal fans backing her up.
One Twitter user acknowledged how it's unrealistic to expect a woman "to stay looking exactly the way she did 7 years ago," adding, "This is the reason women are so god damn hard on themselves."
A few months earlier, Kaitlyn answered a question about whether her lips are real.
"Yeah. Real expensive!" Kaitlyn quipped on Instagram, according to Us Weekly.
"Just like coloring my hair, using fun makeup, fake lashes, skincare, I also like a little filler and botoxI know I have an 'influence.' I'm not saying you should go do it. I'm saying do what you want with YOUR body."
