Brittany Cartwright reveals the secret cosmetic procedure she had done BEFORE filing for divorce from Jax Taylor so she could flaunt a ‘revenge body’

Brittany Cartwright has gone through a secret cosmetic procedure. The 35-year-old star of Bravo’s series The Valley told DailyMail.com she had a two hour AirSculpt session – which removes fat and tightens skin – in May so she could feel good about her body for the summer

Being newly single is a big adjustment for her.

‘I’m working on myself because I need to heal. To be honest with you I thought I would be with Jax forever so this is so new for me. It is taking some time to heal and move on,’ she told DailyMail.com.

Seven months after their separation, Brittany filed for divorce from Jax in August 2024. Citing ‘irreconcilable differences’, she requested primary legal and physical custody of their son Cruz, 3, and for Jax to be granted child visitation.

She did the session over Memorial Day weekend because she wanted to ‘feel great about my body.’

Cartwright said: ‘I wasn’t really nervous about it, but I was worried about being awake during the session. However, I played music like Miranda Lambert and the doctor was so nice to work with. He made me feel safe and comfortable.’

The session was less than two hours long.

‘I opted for the AirSculpt + session which worked on my tummy. The work was done on my stomach. I wanted some help with contouring on my lower abdomen because after I had, my son Cruz, my stomach was just never the same. Now I am smaller and I feel great about it.

‘It was one session I call it “one and done” because not only did it take out fat, but it also tightened my skin at the same time. It is not like traditional liposuction it’s different – it’s body sculpting.’

And she chose to do AirSculpt because ‘it’s a lot easier than a tummy tuck.’ Also her pal Kristen Doute, 41, also did it.

And the reality TV sensation is ‘thrilled’ with the move that has boosted her confidence. She had the work down three months before filing for divorce from 45-year-old Jax Taylor, whom she has worked with on Vanderpump Rules and now The Valley

‘I am feeling great these days after getting AirSculpt,’ she told DailyMail.com as she could be seen in new images. ‘Yeah, you can say I wanted a revenge body. I wanted to look good after everything I’ve been through this year. I want to look my very best. I wanted to get my sparkle back’

‘The recovery time is about six months,’ she added.

‘After I got the session done, I went to dinner that night. I didn’t feel bad. Didn’t need to lie down. It just felt like I had a really hard workout the day before because I was sore here and there.

‘You need to wear for two days afterwards then you need to wear something. It looks like Spanx for six weeks to keep everything tight.

‘AirSculpt is a next-generation body contouring treatment designed to optimize both comfort and precision. This minimally invasive treatment permanently removes fat and tightens skin while sculpting targeted areas of the body,’ a press release shared.

‘Designed by Aaron Rollins, M.D., founder of AirSculpt Technologies and cosmetic specialist, the patented technology ensures dramatic results are achieved with minimal pain by plucking away fat, cell-by-cell, without leaving an obvious scar.

‘AirSculpt is different from traditional cosmetic procedures, including liposuction or fat freezing, and it offers advantages other treatments may not be able to provide.

‘I’m working on myself because I need to heal. To be honest with you I thought it would be with Jax forever so this is a surprise for me. It is taking some time to heal and move on.’ Seven months after their separation, Brittany filed for divorce from Jax in August 2024. Citing ‘irreconcilable differences’, she requested primary legal and physical custody of their son Cruz, 3, and for Jax to be granted child visitation

‘It is just one procedure: With traditional fat freezing and other body contouring procedures, patients need multiple sessions, and results are not always permanent or guaranteed. With AirSculpt, the technology gently removes fat permanently with a single treatment that patients receive while entirely awake.’

Brittany filed for a divorce in August shortly after Jax left a treatment facility.

Jax subsequently admitted that he doesn’t blame Brittany for seeking a divorce.

He said on the When Reality Hits podcast: ‘Unfortunately, she’s had enough. And I don’t blame her at all. I mean, I can’t believe she’s been with me this long as it is. That we stayed, to be honest.’

Despite this, Jax was still caught off-guard when Brittany decided to leave him.

The reality star said: ‘When she decided to leave, I was kind of in shock. I shouldn’t have been in shock, but I was in shock.’

Jax conceded that he’s been through a ‘really, really rough’ time since his split from Brittany.

He added: ‘Anyone that has gone through a divorce will understand how difficult this is.’
