Despite his explanation, fans continued to question Zac’s transformation after watching A Family Affair.
“What happened to Zac Efron’s face? Did they put a lot of filler in him? Up close he looks 50 years old,” wrote one.
Another added: ‘I can’t be the only one who thinks Zac Efron looks weird with that face… I couldn’t concentrate on the movie…’
Others were quick to defend the star, citing her previous surgery following a serious fall years ago.
‘A tweet about Zac Efron’s face goes viral literally every month and every time someone has to explain what happened to his jaw and how he had to get reconstructive surgery and whatnot, this shit is exhausting.’
In November, fans were shocked by her unrecognizable face in an interview she did for Entertainment Weekly.
At the time, the actor was doing a promotional interview with the magazine for his film The Iron Claw.
“What happened to her face?” wrote one fan, while another said her face was “huge.”

Other fans reminded everyone of his previous shattered jaw.
In 2022, Zac appeared on the cover of Men’s Health Magazineand explained what happened to her face, after rumors of plastic surgery circulated since the previous year.
In his interview, Zac revealed that he had a nasty accident at home that caused the massive transformation on his face.
The star recalled how she slipped while putting on a pair of socks while jogging in her home, causing her to crash her chin into a granite fountain.
Zac said that when he was injured, the masseter muscles inside his face and jaw “compensated” for his injury, causing them to grow in size, hence his remarkable transformation.

Other fans compared him to movie characters, while others recalled his shattered jaw caused by an accident at home.
He says this explains why he looked so different at the time. “The masseters just grew. They got really, really big.”
The High School Musical star also claimed to be unaware that he was a huge topic of conversation on social media and had in fact gone viral for his different-looking jawline, until his mother called him to ask if he had had surgery.
“If I valued what other people think of me as much as they think I do,” she told the magazine, “I definitely wouldn’t be able to do this job.”
In April 2021, Efron began trending on Twitter after he was seen in a video for Earth Day! The Musical showing off a more prominent square chin and a more pronounced jawline.
In the clip, Efron excitedly called Bill Nye a “genius” after hearing that he and Justin Bieber were working on a fictional Earth Day musical.
This led fans to speculate that the attractive star had undergone plastic surgery.
The actor was doing a promotional interview with the magazine for his upcoming film The Iron Claw, which is about the life of professional wrestler Kevin Von Erich and his family.

Efron’s friend Kyle Sandilands also spoke out on his behalf, saying the Baywatch star would never do something like that and comparing it to an oil painting by one of the old masters.
The Australian radio host, who has known Zac for years, shut down the speculation during The Kyle and Jackie O Show at the time.
“I’d like to know if he’d had any plastic surgery,” Kyle said, before telling co-host Jackie “O” Henderson that “of course” Zac hadn’t had any work done.
She then said that it wouldn’t make sense for the High School Musical heartthrob to undergo surgery because he’s already so handsome.
“It’s like having a Picasso and a kid finger-painting all over it. Why bother?” he said bluntly.
