Lisa Rinna's staggering transformation over the years is laid bare in jaw-dropping images - as she once again faces criticism over her 'new face'

When Lisa Rinna was first skyrocketed into the spotlight in the late 1980s, she quickly captured the nation thanks to her stunning and all-natural beauty.

But like many young starlets, the actress and model, now 60, succumbed to the pressures of Hollywood and went overboard with cosmetic enhancements.

Soon after she shot to stardom, the TV personality's appearance began to drastically change - most notably, her lips, which ballooned in size - and her shocking transformation completely captured the nation, leaving many speculating about what she had done.

But the fierce scrutiny about her modifications was not something that Lisa shied away from, in fact, her tagline on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was once, 'My lips are legendary, and they will never gloss over the truth.'

She issued a stark warning to her fans via a post shared to her Instagram Stories, writing, 'Be aware... You guys, don't use SkinVive. 

'Don't let any injectors say to you that it's going to just make your skin glowing and hydrated, they claim it's not going to add any volume, but it absolutely adds volume.

'It added volume on me. I didn't want that. Luckily we could dissolve it today. Whew.' 

SkinVive is a 'modified hyaluronic acid gel that's injected as intradermal microdroplets below the surface of the skin, increasing hydration to improve cheek smoothness.'
