‘I would know if he’d had any plastic surgery,’ Kyle declared, before telling his co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson that ‘of course’ Zac hadn’t had work done.

‘Everyone is talking about Zac Efron and how strange he looks. Has he had surgery to reshape his jawline, Botox or fillers?’ Dr Youn began.
‘I don’t think so. I actually think he has had dental surgery, not plastic surgery.
‘That’s why he is swollen [along his jaw]. If you’ve had your wisdom teeth taken out, did you look like this?’
