How does Brad Pitt maintain his youthful appearance?
The secret to Brad Pitt’s eternally youthful appearance may have to do with post-divorce tweaks since his split from Angelina Jolie, an expert has suggested.
Laura Kay, cosmetologist and founder of Laura Kay London, told FEMAIL that the Oscar-winning actor’s young looks can be explained by a combination of a good skin care regimen, plus a few procedures here and there.
Hollywood heartthrob Pitt, 59, got tongues wagging this weekend after he was spotted on set in France looking barely a day older than when he made his name in titles like Fight Club.
Pitt showed up in a white shirt and beige pants at a vineyard in the Var region of the French Riviera.
He was filming a commercial for the Italian appliance brand De’Longhi, which makes luxury coffee and espresso machines.

After stunning the world with his smooth complexion and radiant smile, many fans have drawn comparisons between the actor and one of his most famous roles, Benjamin Button.
The character from the 2008 film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button ages in reverse.
Pitt appeared to be in good spirits as he smiled and chatted with crew members on the set of the commercial, in which he stars alongside Karina Beuthe, 53.
Exuding youthful energy, Laura explained how she believes the Oscar winner has managed to age in reverse.
Beyond possible subtle ‘tweaks’, London-based experts have suggested Pitt prioritizes his skin by staying hydrated
After being blown away by his youthful looks, fans compared Pitt (pictured with his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston in 2004) to his character Benjamin Button.
Speaking to FEMAIL, she said, “Brad seems to have invested very subtly in some ‘adjustments’ to maintain a youthful look.
“He has reduced fine lines today and his skin is dewy and fresh. Therefore, he can have botox to reduce wrinkles and facial peels will help to rejuvenate his skin.
“He could also have focused on certain areas, including the neck, jaws and his hairline/hair, which are very noticeable signs of aging – and with a skilled practitioner, people will barely notice the difference, but it will look transformative.”
She added that if Pitt has opted for a few nips and tucks, it may be related to his split from Angelina Jolie, his partner of 12 years.
The couple, who share four children, married in 2014 but split two years later, with Jolie citing “irreconcilable differences.”
In light of the split, Laura explained, “Surgery and post-divorce adjustments are officially on the rise, and it’s not just a trend among women. Men also book in for botox, fillers, facial peels, eyebrow treatments and hairline work, to name a few.’
In addition to cosmetic procedures, Laura suggested that Pitt also take good care of his skin with a strict maintenance routine.
“He will also prioritize a skincare regimen with day and night cream to hydrate the surface layers of the skin,” she explained.
Brad has a bronze tan and he will be using SPF to protect his skin from UV rays. But in addition to preventing cancer risks, a good quality SPF can also prevent premature skin aging, which will reduce sagging skin, age spots and fine lines.
“He looks younger than ever and will inspire thousands of grown men.”
Nina Prisk, skin and aesthetics expert at Update Aesthetics in Harley Street, also suggested that Pitt’s eternal youth was likely explained by a dedicated skincare regimen, as well as Botox and fillers – but he’s unlikely to have any more invasive procedures undergo.
She said, “I think the reason celebs like Brad Pitt look more youthful now is because they have a more 360 approach to their looks.
By this I mean that they take into account lifestyle factors such as healthy diet, hydration, sun protection and sleep, and use more effective skin care with active ingredients, all in synergy with the use of non-surgical aesthetics such as Botox and fillers.
“This means addressing the health of their skin, their overall health which obviously affects the skin, and also using adjustments to prevent or address the signs of aging.”
“I think both the improvements in skin care are helping people like Brad Pitt look younger than ever now, combined with better knowledge about how other things can affect skin, like diet, hydration, pollutants, sun damage and so on .
“But the biggest factor is integrating all of these things with skin care products and injectables.”
