Jenny previously opened up about her appearance and had no problem admitted she loves a little cosmetic procedure to give her a boost. 

Jenny doesn't deny that she's a fan of Botox too

She told Michigan Avenue magazine: "I think plastic surgery is fun if it makes you feel good. I love Botox, I absolutely love it. I get it minimally, so I can still move my face. But I really do think it's a savior."

Jenny also makes time to work out and eat healthily and this goes a long way towards keeping her looking and feeling her best.
