It’s Botox or bust for Joe Gorga!
Melissa Gorga‘s husband is the latest member of the Real Housewives of New Jersey family to embrace cosmetic procedures, revealing that Botox has become part of his anti-aging routine.
The 52-year-old spoke exclusively to Evan and Danny from Virtual Reali-Tea about his cosmetic upkeep. “I gotta get Botox, man,” Joe admitted. “I gotta get my stuff, you know?”
The real estate developer revealed that he’s been getting Botox for approximately a year, most recently visiting INJX by Nat Aesthetics in Cranford, New Jersey. The med spa is owned by nurse practitioner Natia Rufolo, who is set to join the cast of RHONJ for Season 15.
Joe explained he usually gets “one or two” injections before he’s out the door. “I’m a fan,” he confessed.
However, being a Botox enthusiast doesn’t mean Joe has conquered his fear of needles. “When I get that Botox, I’m holding a stuffed animal,” he joked. “I can’t stand it. I’m such a little bitch.”
Joe’s cosmetic journey may not be stopping at Botox, either. Melissa has reportedly been encouraging her husband to undergo a blepharoplasty to remove excess skin from his eyelids. “Melissa’s trying to say, ‘No, you need your eyes done,’” Joe shared. “I’m like, ‘What’s the matter with my eyes? My eyes are fine.’”
Joe, who is hesitant to go under the knife, claimed that a plastic surgeon even told him his eyes were “perfect.”
He’s hardly the first member of the Gorga family to go under the cosmetic-procedure spotlight. Melissa has been open about using Botox and fillers and confirmed in 2016 that she underwent a nose job.
Their daughter, Antonia Gorga, 21, also revealed in June that she had undergone a rhinoplasty. She explained that a deviated septum made her nose appear crooked, prompting her decision to have the procedure.
