The 72-year-old actress - who was recently accused of going under the knife by a respected surgeon - says her secret age-defying weapon is make-up. She told US TV: "The most glamorous thing you can do is use lipstick." However, Alex Karidis, a London based plastic surgeon, claims he saw evidence of cosmetic surgery when he met Joan 18 months ago. He said: "I clearly saw the scars behind her ears indicating a facelift. I saw that she had also had her eyes lifted. I would say she has had this done in the last five years." The glamorous actress - who has revealed her top tips for staying young in her new book 'The Art Of Living Well' - has previously made her position on surgery abundantly clear, and recently described Botox as "poison". She said: "Everyone should do what they want. If they want lips like a trout let them. Plastic surgery is the plain women's revenge."
