Zac Efron, Before and After 2020

I think of “High School Musical” when I hear Zac Efron’s name.

This was, after all, the production that made him a mainstream Hollywood star. That Disney movie ran more than 10 years ago and Zac, who is now 32 years old, has been trying to do different things to show the world he’s no longer a teen heartthrob.

Blessed with good looks, Zac doesn’t need to do a lot to change his appearance. He doesn’t need plastic surgery either but a lot of fans believe he already did.

Well, I guess there is only one way to find out.

Before & After Photos

These images should give us some clues as to out how this former teen heartthrob transitioned from a cutie to a hunk.

Has Zac Efron had a nose job?

People presumed Zac had a nose job because he had a broad nose as a budding actor. But there’s hardly a trace of difference in these comparison pictures.

I don’t think his nose is any thinner than when he was a teenager. He simply grew up and his face matured.

Did Zac get botox on his face?

Sure, botox makes a person’s face look tight, shiny and smooth.

Zac also had a period where he did have rigid facial expressions so I get why people think he got these injections. But I don’t believe the actor had any.

His facial skin looks the same with or without the beard. In fact, I can see a few more lines starting to appear and that’s normal, right?

Did he have jaw surgery?

As a younger kid, Zac had typical baby fat so it made his face look rounder. But as he grew older, he lost the chubbiness which contributed to a more refined jawline.

So, I don’t think he got any jaw reconstruction procedure.

What about his teeth gap?

Okay, we found a winner.

Zac used to have a gap between his front teeth and he definitely got it corrected with braces.

I think he did the right thing because it made his smile even more charming.

Aww. Zac had thick, curly blond hair as a baby!

How adorable is that?

He also had a button nose and makes me want to squeeze it.

Zac in his teen

Zac had a chubby early teen phase, which makes him even cuter.

Looks like he didn’t care much for his haircuts but it doesn’t matter. Even at this awkward stage, those eyes say he’s a charmer.

Did you know that Zac was regarded as the class clown?

He certainly wasn’t the quiet type but luckily he was hard working.

He developed his acting skills with the encouragement of his father to join a theater group. This landed him his first TV job in “Summerland” and ultimately changed his life.

Zac in 2006

Zac’s popularity soared when he did three installments of “High School Musical” on the Disney channel. Everyone loved Troy Bolton, the high school jock who sings and dances.

He had such a boyish charm back then with his Bieber hair and piercing blue eyes.

Here, the actor slowly developed into a handsome young man. He no longer had baby fat on his cheeks and his face shape became well-defined.

Zac took his fitness to another level in his mid-’20s and developed a muscular body that all of his fans drooled over. He definitely got ripped, which completely change his aura.

Zac in 2017

The actor lost some weight while filming the remake of “Baywatch” with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. He probably worked too hard on his beach body for his lifeguard role.
