Pete Hegseth wages war on his wrinkles with BOTOX. new fitness standards for troops reflects his focus on his looks



He's already installed a makeup studio complete with lights and a director's chair at the Pentagon, and now the Daily Mail can reveal that Pete Hegseth has kicked his beauty routine up a notch – by getting Botox.

The Defense Secretary, 45, underwent a round of cosmetic injections last month and has been since seen with noticeably smoother skin and visibly diminished wrinkles.

An insider, speaking on condition of anonymity, said of the father-of-four: 'It's all an ego play for Pete. He's always been full of himself but lately his ego is off the charts.

'He's obsessed with his body and now he wants to create the entire military in his image.'

that sometimes an insurance company will pick up the tab if doctors demonstrate severe psychological distress because of the wrinkles. Anyway, just curious.
