“Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” Star Gets Real About Her Nose Job

Demi Engemann from Hulu’s “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” recently opened up about her latest cosmetic procedure, confirming she underwent a nose job after years of being bothered by a specific feature. The 30-year-old reality star shared the news through an Instagram Stories post, explaining that the “bump” in her original nose bothered her enough to pursue a partial rhinoplasty, according to People.

Working with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. John Bitner, Engemann expressed complete satisfaction with her results, writing, “He did a phenomenal job,” while sharing photos of her transformed nose. The mother of one’s decision represents her continued openness about cosmetic enhancement, following her previous transparency regarding breast augmentation in 2024.

Engemann documented her breast surgery journey through social media platforms, including TikTok videos showing her recovery process. In the March post, she playfully wrote a caption about her husband, Brett Engemann, being unable to touch her newly enhanced breasts for two weeks during healing. The reality star later revealed she chose high-profile 385cc implants for her breast augmentation.

Engemann Talks Utah’s Beauty Culture

Engemann provided valuable insight into the regional approach to cosmetic procedures during an appearance on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, explaining how Utah’s beauty culture influences young women’s decisions about enhancement. She noted that Mormon Church members commonly pursue subtle procedures at a very young age.

“All go this all done before we were 20 years old,” Engemann shared, adding that this represents “just the Utah way” when it comes to cosmetic enhancement.

“Utah’s known for having very minimal procedures done to where we still look natural,” she explained, emphasizing the local philosophy of addressing specific concerns rather than pursuing dramatic transformations. This approach allows individuals to stop constantly thinking about perceived flaws, making the investment worthwhile for mental peace.

Part of a Transparent Cast

Engemann’s openness reflects a broader trend among her co-stars, who have similarly shared their cosmetic journeys publicly. Layla Taylor stands out as perhaps the most procedure-focused cast member, undergoing six different treatments in just four months, including breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, tummy tuck, lip filler, chin filler, and Botox, OK Magazine reports.

Taylor’s motivation centered on rebuilding confidence as a young divorced mother of two. “I had kids young and I love my babies to death but they screwed up my body and I wanted to feel hot again,” she shared on the “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, according to the outlet. However, she’s now reconsidering her breast implants, telling Page Six she might remove them because they don’t suit her frame for activities like wearing sports bras.

Jessi Ngatikaura took a comprehensive approach by combining multiple procedures in February 2024, including a labiaplasty and “mommy makeover” to address post-pregnancy changes. She strategically scheduled both surgeries on the same day to minimize recovery time, explaining to her co-stars in an episode of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” that “pregnancy kind of pushes it out and mine decided to stay there.”

Mikayla Matthews represents a different perspective, having removed her breast implants due to chronic illness concerns. She marked the one-year anniversary of her explant surgery through social media, crediting the removal as “the beginning of getting my health back and clearing infection out of my body.”
