The CoolSculpting process pulls skin between two paddles and cools it to below freezing for at least 30 minutes with a promise that the treated areas will become more contoured. The model underwent two corrective surgeries to try and fix the damage but both were unsuccessful, the lawsuit says. As a result, Evangelista has not modeled since 2016 and suffers from severe pain, emotional distress and mental anguish, according to the lawsuit.

Really hard to feel sorry for her.

Linda Evangelista has always been a great chamaeleon. She is 56 years old now & still looks great. She’s aged and put on some weight. So what? It’s time use used that chameleon talent to represent women who are growing older gracefully (without surgery). Beauty is inside too!

And she kept silent for 5 years while it could have potentially harmed countless others? I’m not dissing out the shero award to this one here.

You sure it wasn’t the Botox and plastic surgery?

Good for her! She’s nothing to be ashamed of.

Awwwno! That’s so sad. Poor lady.

If she had that procedure it’s more proof that Linda’s not anywhere near the brightest bulb

She’s not deformed it’s called ageing pet

Sorry, no sympathy. I remember watching an interview with Cindy Crawford. She wanted to 'protect' her face because, it's literally her money maker. Her husband told her to gain a little weight. She did. And she got fine as a mu--tha--fu--ker.... Bombshell fine at like 60.

Her nose Doctor butchered it.

She doesn't look too bad now, she's not disfigured, she just looks normal
