Why Jesse Metcalfe Will Never Do This Cosmetic Procedure Ever Again

Jesse Metcalfe just got pretty open about a cosmetic procedure he vows to never try again, after some less-than-stellar results.

Speaking with The Daily Mail over the weekend, the actor—known for his work on Desperate Housewives and the Dallas reboot—got candid about the one thing he’s done to his face and why he won’t be going back for seconds.

“I had a little bit of Botox in my forehead one time and I got home and my eyebrows were uneven and I’m like, ‘I’m never doing this again,’” he explained.

Though he said he’s “not opposed” to non-invasive procedures like injectables, generally, the 47-year-old actor added he’s also “not really looking to go under the knife ever.”

“I just want to do everything I can to maintain the elasticity of my skin before I even do anything like that,” he clarified.

Jesse Metcalfe’s Own Skincare Line

Metcalfe actually self-funded his own skincare company, NUTRL, which launched in 2025.

“I wanted to create something that was a gender-neutral, lab-grade, luxury product line, but at an accessible price point,” he told PEOPLE about the launch at the time.

On the brand’s website, he added that skincare was always something he struggled with, “especially as a young actor constantly in front of cameras,” claiming, “Most products were either too harsh or too weak to make a real difference.”

His line includes an anti-aging under-eye serum, a Vitamin C serum, a facial cleanser that claims it “exfoliates, detoxifies, and hydrates”, as well a “skin-renewing” moisturizer.

“I’ve been really blessed within the industry,” he told Daily Mail of entering the beauty space, adding,, “and I think that people trust me in beauty and in skincare because they see how much younger I look than I actually am.”

Surgery for Men on the Rise

While Metcalfe vowed to never get botox again, a recent Vogue piece said more and more men are getting what they called “brotox.” Botulinum toxin treatments are known to reduce the appearance of lines on the face, reducing the movement of muscles in the targeted areas.

“[We’re seeing a rise in] surgery or injectables for men in leadership roles — executives, entrepreneurs, or finance professionals who want to project confidence and authority,” plastic surgeon Douglas Steinbrech told the publication.

“A strong, chiseled jawline is often associated with leadership and decisiveness. Under the surface, factors such as boardroom value, increased awareness through social media and Instagram competition are impelling more men to go under the knife,” he added.

According to Vogue, citing the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, surgeries for men on the face and neck went up 26% from 2024 to 2025.

Another surgeon, meanwhile, said their male client base tripled in the same amount of time, with more men coming in for skin treatment instead of simply getting Botox to treat sweating and jaw tension.

Other celebrities who have opened up about using injectables in the past include Simon Cowell, Joe Jonas, Andy Cohen and The Valley star Jax Taylor.
