Actress Zakharova and plastic surgery, which disappointed fans

Alexandra Zakharova, despite all the gossip, is an amazing actress, the daughter of her father, the great director Mark Zakharov.
There were different things in her life, but unfortunately, Alexandra was never able to realize herself 100%. It seems that the life of such a person should have been cloudless, but not everything is so simple.

In her personal relationships, she was haunted by failure after failure, while theater and cinema bowed before her.

Not long ago, the actress decided to prolong her charming youth and turned to plastic surgery.

Brief biography and personal life

Alexandra Zakharova (photos of the actress before and after plastic surgery are shown below in the article) was born in mid-June 1962 in one of the Moscow maternity hospitals, in the family of the permanent head of Lenkom. From an early age, the girl’s fate was closely connected with the theater, behind the scenes of which young Alexandra waited for her parents during performances.

The parents' constant employment did not allow them to fully participate in their daughter's life, as well as monitor her school performance, which Sasha happily took advantage of when she started skipping school.

From the age of 13, the girl became seriously interested in reading, choosing in favor of the works of A. Solzhenitsyn, N. Berdyaev and V. Solovyov, and considered the regular school curriculum completely uninteresting and not worthy of attention.

After finishing school, Alexandra entered the Shchukin School, where, upon receiving her diploma, she received an invitation from 5 capital theaters , but none of them, according to the future star, could compare with her native Lenkom.

Fearing accusations of bias, Mark Zakharov held a secret vote, according to the results of which he accepted his daughter into his troupe, but even after that, for a long time, the young actress was forced to only appear in the crowd.

A breakthrough in Alexandra’s career happened with the arrival of Gleb Panfilov to the troupe, who staged “Hamlet” and entrusted the talented young actress with the difficult role of Ophelia. The daughter’s heartfelt performance finally melted the father’s heart, who allowed Alexandra to appear in “Funeral Prayer,” “The Seagull,” “Balakirev the Jester” and “The Marriage of Figaro.”

In 2004, Alexandra appeared on stage in “Va-Bank”, in 2007 in “Marriage”, where she played the role of the bride, and 2 years later she embodied the image of Lyubov Ranevskaya in “The Cherry Orchard”. In 2011, Alexandra played the role of the main character’s mother in Peer Gynt, and then appeared in Jumper and several plays by Venedikt Erofeev.

The actress’s cinematic career also began with her father’s films, and her most successful early work was Fimka from “Formula of Love . In 1988, with the release of “Criminal Talent,” Alexandra Markovna gained all-Russian fame, after which the actress began to be recognized on the streets.

In the following years, the actress acted a lot in films, appearing in such films as “Kill the Dragon”, “The Bride from Paris”, “Hostage”, “Grey Wolves”, “Another Life”, “The Little Thing” and “The Master and Margarita”, and in 2022, after the passing of her father, she completed his last production, “The Trap.”

The actress’s personal life, unlike her career, was not so rosy.

Even while studying at the Shchukin School, Eduard Toman was in love with Alexandra, but the then unknown young man, distinguished by his modesty, did not dare to tell his beloved about his feelings. Subsequently, having already become famous, Edward made a new attempt, which was also unsuccessful.

The actress was in a romantic relationship with Sergei Ashkenazi and Andrei Sokolov. There are also rumors about her affair with Alexander Abdulov, seemingly even approved by Mark Zakharov himself, but the actors themselves never confirmed the gossip, saying that they were connected only by a strong and long-term friendship.

Alexandra’s only husband was Fyodor Steklov, whose marriage lasted about 9 years. In recent years, rumors have appeared about Zakharova’s new romance with a person far from acting circles, but Alexandra herself has not confirmed them in any way.

A little about the biography of Alexandra Zakharova

Like many children of famous parents, Alexandra’s childhood was not easy. Her father is director and artistic director of Lenkom Mark Zakharov. Therefore, no one took the girl’s talent seriously. If she achieved success, they said she was lucky, but for any mistake she was condemned “to the fullest extent.”

When Alexandra became a student at the Shchukin School, few people believed that this was an independent step. The majority considered this to be the merit of the famous pope. And when Alexandra was studying, they said that there was nothing interesting about her, and that the teachers were simply “pulling her out.”

Things didn’t work out for the girl either. Some were simply openly jealous of her, while others were afraid that it would look like sycophancy to the director. Behind her back, Alexandra was given the nickname “princess”; people constantly gossiped about her and spread various rumors.

Figure parameters and appearance

Alexandra Zakharova (photos of the actress before and after plastic surgery have become clear evidence of the dangers of using aesthetic treatment methods) has an outstanding appearance, but the actress has never been considered a classic beauty.

The distinctive features of the movie star have always been bright, blond hair and large facial features, which gave the actress a special charm and prettiness , as well as incredible charisma, instantly distinguishing Alexandra from a crowd of even the most recognized beauties.

Figure parameters:

The actress always carefully hid her figure measurements, but it is known for certain that the charming and funny Fimka, at 57 years old, was able to maintain a youthful figure without adding a single extra centimeter to her waist.

Plastic and how it has changed over time

Alexandra Zakharova (before and after plastic surgery, photographs of the actress repeatedly appeared in magazines) for quite a long time successfully retained youthful freshness and enthusiasm, and even seemed to have discovered the secret of “eternal youth”, which consisted in timely access to a good cosmetologist.

Having started regularly performing biorevitalization and hardware lifting sessions at about 35 years old, the actress was able to significantly slow down the aging process , preventing the active appearance of facial wrinkles. A little later, Alexandra also performed contouring with hyaluronic fillers, making the oval of the face clearer, as well as highlighting the areas of the lips and cheekbones.

After 50 years, simple cosmetic care was not enough for the actress, and she underwent a circular facelift, which ended very unsuccessfully. Due to the incorrect actions of the surgeon, Alexandra’s naturally deep-set eyes “spread” even further from each other, turning into small slits.

The procedure also had a negative impact on the actress’s naturally rather large nose, making it even more massive against the background of her narrowed eyes. Alexandra’s eyebrows also changed position, unnaturally “going” up and drawing attention to the actress’s swollen forehead.

The failed plastic surgery completely changed the movie star's appearance, making her completely unrecognizable, and also damaging Alexandra's expressive facial expressions, which were considered her main asset.

The actress herself reacted to the changes in appearance quite calmly, noting only that absolutely everyone should not like her. According to Alexandra Markovna, each person decides for himself how to remake himself and should not judge anyone.

The actress is confident that you shouldn’t chase the passing youth and you need to find the strength to meet your mature age with dignity.

Beauty secrets

Alexandra Zakharova (before and after plastic surgery, the actress actively led a public life, not ashamed to show off her greatly changed face) has always been very attentive to her appearance, although, in her own words, she also has a lot of laziness, which prevents her from fully caring for her facial skin and with your figure.

Alexandra Markovna is sure that the secret of an ideal appearance is hidden deep inside, and in order to look good, you just need to keep your soul pure and not allow envy and anger into it, which is reflected on the skin in the form of wrinkles.

Skin care

The actress calmly admits that she is too lazy to often visit a cosmetologist and regularly carry out anti-aging procedures.

Alexandra Markovna agrees with the words of Annie Girardot, who notes that every wrinkle on her face was given so dearly to her that she would be completely unable to give it up, and those age-related changes that appeared as a result of pain or suffering only made her appearance more interesting.

Since the age of 35, the actress regularly conducts biorevitalization sessions, rejuvenating masks and anti-aging face lifting, and also does skin-cleansing peelings and cleansing.

Alexandra Markovna does not use expensive modern creams, trying to give preference to natural cosmetics , as well as folk remedies, including masks made from heavy cream and milk, nourishing tissues or wiping the face with frozen ice cubes with chamomile infusion.

Distinguished by a special laziness that leaves the actress only in the theater, Alexandra Markovna tries to sleep at least 9 hours a day and never changes her habits to visit the pool or sports club.

Nutrition

The actress calls the main recipe for her slimness a small amount of food consumed daily . In her interviews, Alexandra Markovna notes that over the years she has gone through many new-fangled diets, including dietary restrictions based on blood type, and believes that any diet should be treated very carefully.

According to the movie star, if you strictly adhere to food restrictions, then the diet will literally “take over” and make you dependent, so if you really want to enjoy a chocolate bar or donut, then you just need to do it without thinking about the consequences.

In Germany, one doctor gave Alexandra very wise advice that she should eat everything, but only half the portion. This is how the actress tries to eat, and she has also given up meat forever.

The actress explains her refusal to eat meat not by vegetarianism, which is fashionable in the modern world, but by the fact that her body has recently simply stopped accepting previously beloved meat products and after each such feast she becomes very ill. Having given up beef, veal, pork and lamb, Alexandra Zakharova kept fish and poultry in her diet.

The actress herself is very unpretentious when it comes to food and notes that she considers spaghetti to be her favorite dish. The movie star also never minds drinking a glass of beer, especially when she learned that it has no effect on women.

Sport

Alexandra Zakharova does not engage in sports due to natural laziness, which prevents her from leaving bed earlier than usual and going to the gym . The actress notes that she constantly vows to start working out, but always puts off the idea.

Alexandra sincerely admires people who adhere to proper nutrition and regularly visit the pool, but her swims always ended with a runny nose. According to the star, her natural laziness leaves her only in the theater, where she can rehearse for hours without thinking about food or fatigue.
