‘RHONJ’ alum Jacqueline Laurita posts jarring video after facelift and neck lift

Jacqueline Laurita gave fans a glimpse of her gory recovery after undergoing a facelift and neck lift.

The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” alum posted a jarring video of herself all bruised and bandaged after her cosmetic surgeries to her Instagram Monday.

“My 5 hour surgery went great with @doctor.ip here in Newport Beach! SO FAR I can’t feel a thing! I feel great!” she shared in the caption of her post.

The Bravolebrity, 55, was seen with bandages wrapped around her head and jaw, as well as drains filled with blood protruding from her body. She also had breathing tubes in her nose.

“I’m still waiting for the other half of my face to wake up that was worked on last. Should be soon!” she said, noting, “That’s why it’s not moving yet! Lol!”

Laurita explained that she was rotating her ankles and moving her knees up and down to keep the circulation going.

“I have Aquaphor on my face and I’m keeping my head up and straight forward,” she added.

The reality TV personality raved about the medical staffers who were helping her throughout her recovery.

“This is a great crew here! Everyone has been excellent!” she gushed. “Catheter will be removed tonight and my oxygen has already been removed. My drains will come out tomorrow and I’ll get to go home bright and early!”

Laurita shared that “Real Housewives of Orange County” alum Lynne Curtin also underwent plastic surgery at the same medical center.

“@lynneanncurtin just rolled in next to me but she’s still a little groggy,” Laurita said. “We will talk to her later.”

Laurita thanked her fans for their “support” and said that Dr. Ip and his wife would be sharing more updates about her recovery “journey” on social media.

“I want everyone to see the reality of how this process goes and how we heal! Take care! ,” she said.

In the short clip, which she filmed right after opening her eyes following the operation, she shared that she was feeling “fantastic.”

Several netizens applauded Laurita for being transparent with her followers about what procedures she was doing to maintain a youthful glow.

“love that your [sic] honest about what you do! who cares what everyone else says, as long as you’re happy ,” one supporter commented on the post.

She replied by telling the fan, “Thank you! I appreciate you! .”

Another fan added, “I was going to say you are damed [sic] if you do and damed [sic] if you don’t everyone wants honestly but then makes these comments when people are hones[t] about health and beauty, it is so exhausting. Do what makes you happy you get one life! I appreciate her honestly.”

When one confused person asked, “Were you in an accident?” Laurita replied, “ no! But some may call it that. I got a facelift, Neck lift and CO2 laser!”

Several stars from the Bravosphere also commented with words of encouragement including Kelly Dodd, Dolores Catania, Teresa Giudice, Taylor Armstrong and Peggy Tanous.
