Ashley Has Plastic Surgery

High School Musical’s Ashley Tisdale has had a nose job.

She’s told People magazine in the US: "Growing up I always knew I had a deviated septum on the right side of my nose, which caused trouble breathing."

"The older I got, the worse it got. I went to get it checked out, and the doctor told me the septum was 80 percent deviated and that I had two small fractures on my nose."

The recuperating 22-year-old added: "I'm not feeling great today. It's uncomfortable and I hope this is the only time I ever have to go through something like this."

"I was completely scared. I wasn't looking forward to the surgery at all. I actually had trouble sleeping for a week before."

However, she doesn’t want her young fans to follow her into an operating room and undergo procedures herself.

Ashley explained: "I didn't do this because I believe in plastic surgery. I did this to help my health. I literally almost could not breathe out of the right side of my nose."

"I want my fans to know the truth. I'm not someone who is going to act like I had nothing done. I just want to be honest because my fans are everything to me."
