Kudrow was not always confident about her appearance as she struggled with body dysmorphia during the filming of Friends. She admitted to comparing her body with that of Aniston and Cox, which made her spiral further. She tried to lose weight by eating less, which led to frequent illnesses and weakness.
Decades later, Kudrow has developed a kinder outlook on her body and now embraces the reality of aging as a good thing. Unlike many celebrities, she has steered clear of plastic surgery and extreme cosmetic procedures, noting that her moisturizer works just fine at plumping her face up.
