Aryna Sabalenka’s subtle facial changes and Toronto quarterfinal defeat noted

Experts in aesthetic medicine said that Belarusian tennis star Aryna Sabalenka has undergone only modest facial alterations in recent years. Owner of a medical‑spa clinic Kalina Ben Sira and aesthetic doctor Małgorzata Kocot observed fuller lips, slightly lifted eyebrows and a modest increase in cheek volume, likely achieved with small amounts of hyaluronic acid or subtle Botox. They emphasized that the changes remain natural and are complemented by physiological effects of age and intensive sport.

In the WTA Toronto tournament, Sabalenka was eliminated in the round of 16 by China’s Shuai Zhang, losing 3‑6, 3‑6. The match highlighted a higher error count and a dip in her ranking points, moving her further from the world No. 1 spot. The loss follows a period of inconsistent results that have seen her ranking slip from the 11,000‑point tier to around 8,500 points.
