A prominent Russian singer Dima Bilan spoke openly in an interview with the publication “Now watch out!” and clarified that he has not undergone plastic surgery.
Bilan admitted that at one time he considered various body changes but chose not to pursue them. He emphasized that he does not condemn people who decide to go under the knife, framing the issue as a personal choice.
“While you are under the gaze of public scrutiny, you can notice every mistake someone makes and jump to conclusions. You witness potential side effects, but you also recognize that they exist. I thought about it, but I decided I would not do that,” the singer explained in the interview, speaking from a place of personal conviction. [Source: Now watch out!]
The interview also touched on a high‑profile controversy involving two artists, Slava and Lyubov Uspenskaya, and the surgeon Timur Khaidarov. Bilan commented that the situation is ultimately a personal decision for the colleagues involved, wishing them well and expressing hope that everything will be fine.
On July 22, Slava publicly accused Khaidarov of performing breast augmentation that she deemed of poor quality. She described noticeable asymmetry in her breasts and scars she found unappealing after surgery. Khaidarov responded by saying that the singer did not adhere to post‑operative scar care recommendations.
Lyubov Uspenskaya echoed Slava’s stance, noting that she herself was dissatisfied with how her skin and flexibility responded to Khaidarov’s work. In the wake of these events, 52 additional women joined a collective letter opposing the surgeon. A lawyer named Elena Senia is representing the victims in the case.
Earlier, Slava had spoken about how she viewed her grandmother’s role as a justification for some troubling actions, a comment that added another layer to the ongoing public discussion about beauty, aging, and medical procedures. [Context: public statements and ongoing legal actions]
