Zac Efron answers plastic surgery rumors

Some time ago people began speculating that Zac Efron had received some type of plastic surgery. Guesses ranged from eye job to face lift to full jaw reconstruction.  Seems one of those guesses was pretty close.

The 34-year-old actor was sitting down with Mens Health magazine when he explained he slipped on a pair of socks while running at his home causing him to smash his chin into a granite fountain.

He said the fall was so hard he actually lost consciousness. And when he woke up his ‘chin bone hanging off his face.’

Efron said that when he was injured the masseter muscles on the inside of his face and jaw then ‘compensated’ for his injury causing them to grow in size – hence his remarkable transformation.

But by the time he sat down with Mens Health the swelling and jaw had healed and his was looking like his old self again.
