Overview

• Telling her podcast on Sept. 18, the RHOC star said she had a July 14 operation to correct a diagnosed animation deformity that distorted her chest with muscle movement.
• Surgeon Dr. Donny Mowlds reattached her pectoralis to the chest wall and placed new 150cc high‑profile implants over the muscle after deciding 250cc would be too large.
• Judge said the procedure lasted five hours and recovery involved two months of pain, yet she is pleased with the cosmetic outcome.
• A producer questioned the change during filming, which led to her 19-year-old daughter, Sophia, learning about the surgery during a group confessional.
• Judge previously removed implants about five years ago due to symptoms she linked to suspected breast implant illness, and she has since continued care with Dr. Mowlds, who performed other procedures in 2024.
