Bec Judd recently confessed to the extensive cosmetic work she has had done, after years of denying she'd undergone tweaks. 

And the AFL WAG continued the confessional on Wednesday as she sat down for the latest episode of her Vain-ish podcast. 

The 43-year-old told her co-host Jessica Roberts that her first foray into dermal filler happened 'a long time ago' in her twenties. 

'I'd always just get a tiny bit [of lip filler],' she said.

Over time, the gradual top-ups began to create an unexpected problem.

'A few years ago, it got to a point where it was so lumpy,' Bec admitted, explaining that she already has natural asymmetry in her bottom lip.

'The left's bigger and the right's smaller, but when I'd talk and do a piece to camera, you could see a lump on the bottom of my lip,' she explained. 

The visible unevenness eventually prompted her to dissolve the filler and begin again.

After letting her lips settle, Bec returned to her injector to rebuild the volume conservatively, only to discover a major issue. 

'We noticed that the filler moved to the spots where it had migrated to and almost caused like a cave - for want of a better word - a cavity,' she said.

Despite attempts to redistribute the product, the filler kept returning to the same migrated areas.

'So we tried to pop it back in and even it out, but it just went back to where it had come from,' Bec explained.

'So we put less in so it's not lumpy. We just went in so small and conservatively.'

Bec says she now relies on makeup to make her lips look bigger. 

'Now I just overdraw my lips. My lips look so much bigger than they actually are now,' she said.

'I think I was about 30 and I got sick and tired of the eye bags and what everyone was doing then was putting filler under people's eyes.'

Bec continued: 'I went and saw a plastic surgeon and he was like: 'Yep, you've got these big hollows under your eyes, I'll pop filler in.'

She said that while initially pleased with the results, Bec soon changed her tune.     

'At the start it did its job. It covered the hollows but what happened over time was the filler started to migrate and it also started to absorb fluid so it became really, really puffy.'

She ended up having the filler dissolved, which only caused the 'hollows' to become more prominent.

'It dissolved the filler but it also dissolves a lot of your natural tissue,' she said. 'It's why I just don't like filler any more.

'I covered it with concealer and wore sunglasses all the time which is pretty bad for me because my job is my face.'

Bec then opted to get a lower blepharoplasty – a procedure to remove or reposition excess fat and skin from the lower eyelids to reduce puffiness, bags, and dark circles.

Bec has been the focus of plastic surgery rumours for years. She is pictured left, in 2004, and right, recently 

'I saw an oculo-plastic surgeon and got a lower blepharoplasty – you have a general anaesthetic and they remove the eye bag, in lay terms, and they re-drape a bit of the fat and there you go,' she said.

However, Bec's eye ordeal was far from over as she admitted to still having the 'hollows' after the second procedure.

After a swathe of independent research and conversations with doctors, she then opted to have a fat transfer to smooth out the hollows under her eyes as well as an upper blepharoplasty.

'It's never going to be perfect but it looks so much better than it did before,' she said.

'I did an upper blepharoplasty where they take a little bit of your skin out of your eyelid and just freshen it up. He probably cut out a millimetre or two millimetres of the eyelid and now they're fresh.

'It was a two-year journey and it cost a s***load of money.'
