Model and media personality Brooks Nader has revealed a unique festive gift for her parents this year: she decided to dissolve her lip filler. The 28-year-old Sports Illustrated Swimsuit star shared the personal update with her followers this week, framing the cosmetic reversal as a heartfelt, if humorous, Christmas present.
A Festive Procedure Captured on Social Media
Nader took to her Instagram stories on Tuesday to inform fans of her decision. The moment was also documented by her sister, Sarah Jane, who uploaded a clip to her TikTok account. The video captured Brooks following a trip to Disneyland, still wearing glittering red Minnie Mouse ears as she rested in a chair for the procedure. Sarah Jane captioned the light-hearted clip, 'Rare aesthetic: getting your lip filler dissolved after DisneyLand.'
In a subsequent close-up selfie, Nader showed off the results, displaying her natural lips with some slight bruising from the process. Over the image, she typed, 'Got all my lip filler dissolved, that's my Christmas present to Mom & Dad lol,' confirming the personal motivation behind the change.
Candid Confessions on Cosmetic Enhancements
This is not the first time Nader has been transparent about her experiences with aesthetic treatments. In a recent interview with Bustle in November, she discussed a range of procedures she has undergone. Her list included salmon sperm facials, a 'Nefertiti' Botox neck lift, and a nose job. She addressed comments about her appearance, noting, 'People say I look like Michael Jackson,' before adding that she has also had veneers fitted.
Perhaps more notably, Nader has been openly discussing her use of the GLP-1 medication Ozempic for weight loss. She explained to Bustle that early in her career, she was told by clients she 'needed to lose 30 pounds' to book jobs. She stated that starting the medication coincided with her career taking off. Her reason for being so public about it? Frustration with secrecy in her social circles.
'I was kind of sick of being at cocktail parties or fashion events where someone I knew six months prior had lost a random 80 pounds,' she told Us Weekly. 'I had a weight loss, and why lie? So I was like, "I'm on Ozempic!"' She advocates for personal choice, adding, 'If you want to do something to make you feel more beautiful, you should do it.'
Holiday Season and High-Profile Links
Amidst these personal revelations, Nader has been enjoying a busy festive period. She was recently spotted on a girls' night out in Los Angeles with close friend Lauren Sanchez, the fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. For the occasion, Nader opted for a sheer black minidress, going braless underneath.
She has since traded LA for a winter wonderland, whisking herself away to snowy Aspen, Colorado to prepare for Christmas. On Christmas Eve, she shared an outfit of the day on Instagram, dressed head-to-toe in white and writing, 'Ready for a white Christmas.'
On the relationship front, Nader was previously married to Billy Haire from 2019 until 2022. She has since been linked to several high-profile figures including NFL legend Tom Brady, tennis star Carlos Alcaraz, and Dancing With The Stars pro Gleb Savchenko. However, as recently as October, the model hinted she was happily single and enjoying life on her own terms.
