Jaclyn Smith, 76, weathered all types of stressors throughout her life and career. She was a household name in the 1970s when she was on top of Hollywood. She endured and survived three marriages that all ended in divorce. She battled and beat a breast cancer diagnosis. But how does Jaclyn Smith still look so young even though it has been decades since the 1975 release of Charlie’s Angels?

As it turns out, Smith does not pursue traditional plastic surgery procedures. Unlike many other stars who have reached their golden years, Smith has not yet turned to the plastic surgeon’s office to get the results she wants. Instead, she has been using a bizarre method of recycling her own fat to remain youthful in appearance.

“I don’t believe in fillers, and I haven’t done any cutting,” says Jaclyn on her minimal procedures. “If I put anything in my face, I use my own fat, which is hard to do.”

Since her years in Hollywood, Smith has transitioned to working as a business owner. She’s the owner of a multi-million-dollar brand of skincare and clothes that she oversees from her hilltop mansion in Los Angeles.

Botox was never for Smith.

“I’m afraid of it,” she said. “My husband says if you do Botox over and over, it totally collapses the muscle. You can overdo it in this town like nobody’s business. And when you get done, it’s not a good look.”

Smith’s life was turned upside down twenty years ago when the doctor found a lump in her breast. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a grueling treatment regimen that included radiation. The treatment was successful, and she went into remission only a few months later. However, the experience of cancer changed her outlook on life.

“It’s part of my history, and it changes you: [I realize] you need to seize the day,” she says. “And we need to be more grateful. Maybe we all complain a little too much.”

Smith ran through men very quickly while she was in Hollywood. By the time Charlie’s Angels finished its five-year run in 1981, she had divorced two husbands.

“I don’t even count those first two as marriages,” she admitted.

Now, she is married to her fourth husband, 67-year-old heart surgeon Brad Allen. She met Allen while he was operating on her father thirty years ago. They married in 1997 and have had a happy life ever since.

Part of how she managed to remain so youthful-looking was that Jacklyn Smith never touched drugs.

“Some of it went against my upbringing. I had never heard a four-letter word growing up. I had never seen a drug,” she said. “I never walked with that crowd. I took a detour. I’ve still never touched drugs.”

Smith recycles her fat with various procedures that remove it from one part of her body and then inject it into her face to make it appear fuller.
