Sherri Shepherd went au naturel!
The View alum hopped on Instagram with a fresh-faced video, opening up about a plastic surgeon’s suggestion that she should consider going under the knife.
“A doctor told me I needed a facelift … So many around me are doing it and there is no judgment from me,” she wrote in her caption.
“This world doesn’t honor the beauty that comes from age and living a full life. This is my natural face with no makeup,” she said.

Sherri Shepherd shared a makeup-free video.
The comedian then broke down the meaning behind her features — and why she loves them all.
“The lines around my mouth are deep because of the laughter from my soul… my eyes are droopy because of the weight of tears I have shed. I have two chins because I have had to hold up anxiety, worry & beautiful memories,” Shepherd explained.
She added, “My lips turn downward but they quickly turn upwards with joy. My nose gets fuller every year because I need to breathe in a lot of peace.”
Although the doctor suggested “multiple fillers” to give her a more “refreshed” look, Shepherd made her stance clear.
“I am loving me just as I am. A warrior❤️,” she wrote while smiling for the camera.
In the clip, Shepherd touched her face as she grooved to Malcolm Todd’s “Chest Pain (I Love)."

A doctor told 'The View' alum she needed a 'facelift.'
And while she’s not open to facial work, Shepherd has admitted to one cosmetic procedure — a b------ augmentation.
“I get so many comments about my body and a lot of yall kept saying, ‘Sherri, you’re too top heavy.’ And I would get comments like, ‘If you just got a b--- job everything would be balanced.’ So guess what? I got my b----- done!” she laughed, dancing onstage during her talk show.
She went on, “I had a b----- reduction over the summer and Season 2, everything is going to be bigger except these b----! To be clear, I did not get this b--- job because of all the comments. I got the b--- job because I just wanted to see what it felt like to sleep on my stomach. I’m so happy that I did it. I was a 42DD.”

Sherri Shepherd explained why she got a b----- reduction.
Shepherd admitted her choice was about health, too.
“I thought I was carrying around the weight of the world but really it was the weight of my b----,” she quipped. “All jokes aside, they were so heavy I was slouching all the time. It started becoming really painful, my back was hurting very badly.”

The 'Straw' actress loves her natural face.
Now, the 58-year-old says she’s in a much better place.
“I feel better. I’m not gonna say I wish I had done this a while ago because timing is everything. God gave them to me, they served me well but now, as I get older, I can sit up straight. I feel lighter,” Shepherd concluded.
