The 42 year old Canadian comedian is known for getting little tweakments such as Botox and fillers, and welcomed her fourth child, Holland, in October
Katherine Ryan has revealed that she underwent a facelift just weeks after giving birth – and it cost £16,000. The comedian gave birth to her fourth child in October 2025.
Two months after the birth of her daughter, Holland, Katherine teased that she had undergone “serious cosmetic surgery” and had even taken her newborn with her when she went for the procedure. But she has now gone into detail about what she had done.
Speaking on her podcast, Telling Everybody Everything, she said: “The surgery was a facelift. Yes, a full facelift – a little bit of fat transfer to my cheekbone area, and a small bleph[aroplasty].

“A bleph is when they take a tiny bit of your eyelid skin, though not too much, and then they’ll usually, to avoid hollowness, put a little bit of fat back in there too. So I had some fat put in, like my upper face, my eyelids, and then I had a facelift.”
She explained that she felt like she “needed” to do the surgery. “Almost metaphorically, I needed to do something, to reclaim my identity, to reclaim my autonomy, to claw back the face that I had in, like, 2019.”
She added that she didn’t want to look how she did 20 years ago, but wanted to look how she did before COVID. “I am not crazy,” she said. “I’m not trying to wind it back to 2006. I’m just trying to look the way I did, like, pre-COVID, pre-six pregnancies in five years.” Katherine then discussed how she felt after the surgery, commenting that she was “numb”.
“The beauty is you’re pretty numb afterwards. I was bruised, and I was swollen, and I think I am still a little bit swollen. But basically, I just went about my daily life from day one.
“They sent me home with some paracetamol. If I had needed stronger drugs, I think that was available, but I didn’t. I took ibuprofen, paracetamol for like three days.”
Katherine’s life didn’t slow down as she recovered. She explained that, as it was Christmas, she went to Christmas parties, took her children to Lapland, went to carol concerts and looked after a newborn baby.
Katherine had previously shared why she took her baby with her when she went to York for her surgery. She said: “I went to York, it was three and a half hours, I elected to take the baby with me because she just turned eight weeks that day and I’m still breastfeeding her, obviously, I will be for a long time.
“You can’t breastfeed immediately after surgery but I could obviously spend the night with her before and breastfeed her then. I was thinking to myself, after I got this surgery – which, wait until you see it, is pretty serious surgery – I was like, ‘Katherine Ryan what is your damage? What the f*** are you doing? Why have you brought a baby to surgery.’
“But then I thought, up and down this country, worldwide, everyday, we are giving women C-sections and then saying, ‘Sweet, go keep these twins alive’.” She added that a C-section was “much more serious” than what she had. “So, what’s an elective cosmetic procedure with a newborn?”
Katherine shares her youngest daughter, Holland, with her husband, Bobby Koostra, along with daughter Fenna and son Fred. The comedian also has a teenage daughter, Violet.
