Since becoming a household name in Hollywood, thanks to her role as Agent Olivia Dunham in the hit show Fringe, Torv has been questioned of her involvement with plastic surgery. There have been some reports claiming that the Australian beauty has already adopted Hollywood women’s inclination in going under the knife.
Rumors of plastic surgery became more intense when she posed topless for Esquire’s men magazine, showing her prominent breasts. While others thought that her full breasts could be a result of breast implants, many others believed that everything about her looked natural.
Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer said: “It looks like Anna Torv is naturally beautiful. No signs of cosmetic enhancements.” The Fringe actress, however, surely maintains a skincare regimen that keeps her skin looking smooth. As of present, Torv continues to look great despite being in her mid-30s.
