Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleJenny McCarthy has been open about her cosmetic procedures, especially her breast implants. The American actress, model, and television personality has been struggling with her health after receiving a diagnosis of mold and mycotoxin poisoning. However, she still decided to keep her implants.
Recently, on The Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg Show, Jenny defended keeping her implants despite suffering from a severe poisoning. While interviewing her own plastic surgeon, Dr. Terry Dubrow, Jenny opened up about her implants and revealed, ‘I’m toxic-phobic; a lot of people make fun of me [for having implants].’
In the conversation, she defended her implants and said that despite a severe multi-year mold and mycotoxin poisoning diagnosis, she decided to keep her implants. Jokingly revealing why she is not ready to part with them, Jenny said:
“I maybe someday, when I’m an old lady, will want to be a free bird, but at this time, having to be in these dresses and stuff like that. I mean, I went down dramatically, much smaller where I used to be. But I am not ready for zucchini titties. I’m just not there yet.”
Jenny has Motiva breast implants. It is a softer silicone style approved by the FDA in 2024 that allows for more natural movement. Jenny underwent her first set of breast implants at the age of 22 before appearing on Playboy. In 2000, she underwent a breast reduction.
The actress had been battling Mycotoxin poisoning, which usually happens when you inhale, ingest, or absorb toxic chemicals produced by mold. However, during the podcast, Dr. Dubrow revealed that he didn’t think Jenny’s implants had anything to do with her mold poisoning diagnosis.
Jenny McCarthy has been dealing with mold and mycotoxin poisoning for the past two years. On her podcast, Jenny revealed the problem began with a toothache that led to many issues. Jenny revealed that in October 2024, she developed a persistent toothache that painkillers didn’t relieve. She visited several dentists to understand what exactly happened to her before being referred to an endodontist for oral surgery.
The toothache later led to other problems as she developed chalazions and cysts that grow on the eyelids. She underwent a number of surgeries without any proper diagnosis. It was in December 2025 when Jenny received a proper diagnosis, as one of her doctors called her and gave her a shocking update about her health. Recalling the same, Jenny said:
“I get on the phone with her, and she says, ‘Jenny, you’ve got serious mold. You’ve got the type of mold that causes seizures. If this thing crosses the blood-brain barrier, I’m going to be talking to you in hospital. You’re going to start seizing. We’ve got to get on this immediately.”
In the same conversation, Jenny revealed that due to the poisoning, her immune system was under attack, which caused many infections. She said the diagnosis was validating because she was feeling “like a freaking paranoid schizophrenic.” She is currently going through mold detox, and says that she is living in a tent in her backyard.
