Chloe Fineman is sharing a hilarious look at some of her “botched” cosmetic procedures.
On Sunday, Jan. 4, the SNL comedian, 37, shared a post on Instagram that included photos from what she described as her ” ‘Botched’ iPhone photo album” — many of which featured her with a swollen or red face, fresh out of a med spa.
“Every year, hundreds of women will say they’re going on a trip or visiting family in Connecticut. But really, they’ll be going ham at a med spa doing crazy s— like laser stuff, salmon j—, sculptra plaster or whatever the hell this was,” Fineman said in a voiceover, as selfies of herself flashed across the screen, many of them taken as she sat in bed.
“These women will hide themselves away in caves like bears while taking hundreds of selfies like this they’ll send to friends and family who will lie and say, ‘It’s not that bad,’ ” Fineman joked.
“This year, I pledge to stop the cycle,” she said, before quipping: “Just kidding, I’m going Friday.”
The comments underneath her post were full of messages from friends, including comedian Annie Sertich, who wrote: “I’ll never forget when you sent me a selfie and said… ‘Do you think I can still perform tonight at The Groundlings? It’s not that bad.’ “
“You always looked good but I do feel you became like 17 real quick. DM me the deets,” Keke Palmer joked.
“I feel so seen,” several others wrote.

Speaking to Into The Gloss in April 2024 about her beauty routine, Fineman said that because she’s in her 30s, she’s at “peak med spa mistake age,” though she’s worked with a few cosmetic professionals whose treatments she’s loved.
“It all turned dark during COVID,” she quipped at the time. “When they lifted enough restrictions in L.A., I was like ‘This is the time to get Botox, because no one will see me for probably six months.’ But then I couldn’t lift my forehead until right when we came back to work — and for comedy and acting, you want to be able to move your face.”

According to Fineman, she wanted to get a laser treatment before her first Met Gala — “and then next thing I knew I accidentally did Fraxel and couldn’t leave the house for seven days,” she said, referring to the microscopic laser treatment that creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to improve its texture.
“Another time, I wanted a subtle change in my lips, but then they became swollen and way out there. Every six months, I feel like I tell [my makeup artist] Marc Reagan, ‘Sorry, I made a mistake. Whoops.’ “
