Rufus Sewell is thought to have undergone plastic surgery (blepharoplasty) since he has lost the extra skin from his eyelids. However, the Diplomat star has yet to address the allegations. Additionally, he previously noted that he wants to age gracefully, instead of receiving cosmetic procedures to prevent wrinkles.
The Diplomat, a Netflix original series created by Debora Cahn, follows Kate Wyler (Keri Russell), the new US Ambassador to the United Kingdom, who would rather be diffusing an international crisis than forging long-term relationships, but bigger powers have bigger plans for her. Furthermore, as if being in a job she doesn’t want and isn’t particularly suited for wasn’t enough, her marriage is disintegrating at a time when she needs personal and professional alliances she can rely on.
Likely, the show also stars a British film and stage actor, Rufus Sewell, who portrays Kate Wyler’s husband Hal Wyler, a fellow career diplomat and political figure with sufficient charm to win over just about everyone who doesn’t already despise him. Since the release of the Netflix series, many people have been wondering if the 55-year-old actor has had plastic surgery in real life. And if you share the sentiments about his younger appearance, here’s everything you need to know.
Previously, we touched on the plastic surgery efforts of Suzanne Somers.
Rufus Sewell’s Plastic Surgery: The 55-Year-Old Actor has been accused of receiving blepharoplasty!
Rufus Sewell (@fredriksewell) has been reported to have undergone multiple plastic surgery procedures to prevent aging as demonstrated by his before and after photos. Many people claim that the 55-year-old actor’s eye looks different in his recent appearance, which leads them to believe the Diplomat star might have received blepharoplasty.

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin from the upper and lower eyelids. As we age, our eyelids stretch and their supporting muscles weaken. As a result, excess skin and fat may form above and below your eyelids. This can cause sagging brows, droopy upper lids, and bags beneath the eyes. In addition to the consequences of aging, significantly drooping skin around the eyes can impair peripheral vision, particularly in the upper and outer areas of the visual field. The procedures can help to minimize or eliminate these eyesight issues. In addition, the technique might make the eyes appear younger and more alert.
Talking about Rufus Sewell’s eye, it does not seem to be repaired, but it makes him curiously cute, thus it was never a problem for the actor. However, many followers claim that his eyes are now more attractive than before. One of Sewell’s fans wrote on Twitter, “Rufus Sewell, making dissimilar eye shape attractive since ’98.” Similarly, another Twitter user said he was hesitant to tweet since it was contentious, but he appreciated Sewell’s lazy eye.
Furthermore, Rufus Sewell’s fans thought his lazy eye complemented his character well. Another user queried, “Is it just his wonky eye that leaves Rufus Sewell typecast as the bad guy?” Following the tweet, one guy stated that he wanted to see Sewell play Prince Charming because he deserved it. However, some observers believed the actor’s eyes dramatically improved once he appeared in the 2006 movie Tristan and Isolde. Sewell also had his eye fixed while portraying Adam in Vampire Hunter.

However, Rufus Sewell has never conformed to the allegation because he aspires to get older gracefully. The 55-year-old actor previously stated that he will not get plastic surgery to combat wrinkles as he aged.
Meanwhile, Rufus Sewell has spent nearly two decades in the entertainment sector. When he was 28 years old, he made his acting debut in the film Carrington. Sewell looked gorgeous and young at the time, but he is now 55 years old and getting older by the day. However, the English actor does not mind becoming older. At the premiere of M. Night Shyamalan‘s new thriller Old, he told Page Six,
I don’t want to overstate here or ask for trouble, but I’m not afraid of aging. I’m not somebody who wants to look younger than I am. I quite like being, 53, and I wasn’t that sorted out when I was younger.
Additionally, Rufus Sewell required six hours of makeup to play a guy who was 20 years his senior in the film Old. He required clarity on which was him and which was the makeup because the makeup artist applied additional wrinkles to his face to make him appear older. He felt even more glad for his age when he removed his latex prosthetic makeup at the end of each shoot.
