Arlene Phillips applies her own "Botox alternative" at home.
The 'So You Think You Can Dance' judge is too scared to visit a cosmetic surgeon and undergo skin-smoothing injections, so she embarks on her own anti-wrinkle system to keep her face free of age lines.
She said: "I don't have Botox, I hate needles, but I use a Botox alternative you can apply yourself.
"I also have this facial once a week with a rotating instrument that pulls, stretches and tightens."
The 66-year-old choreographer also recently lost weight from her petite frame by cutting out fatty and carbohydrate-filled foods.
She explained: "I've lost about a stone and a half just by cutting out calorific foods like cheese and roast potatoes. I'm 8st 6lb which feels just right for me - I'm not very tall - and fortunately my body seems to have sprung back. There's still enough flesh on me, but now I'm not carrying around any excess weight I feel far freer and more energetic."
Arlene claims she only worries about her appearance when she's on television, and doesn't care what she looks like when she's at home.
She explained to Yours magazine: "I think losing weight has made me look younger. I'm very conscious of the way I look because I'm on TV - as opposed to real life where I'm content with myself. At home, I wear flat shoes, no make-up and don't bother with my hair."
