Joy Corrigan surfaced on Friday, in her first public sighting since her stunningly candid new Instagram update about her life.
The Playboy alum went topless on social media Thursday to bare the scars from her recent breast implant removal.
Her jaw-dropping picture was accompanied by a caption about how the operation was part of a larger life change – one that included moving to Los Angeles, going to therapy, taking medication and giving up alcohol and marijuana.
She emerged on the City Of Angels on Friday in a flesh-flashing set of workout gear that hinted at her newly reduced cleavage.
Sweeping her signature blonde hair back into a bun, she accentuated her screen siren features with naturalistic makeup.

Joy came prepared for a potential drop in temperatures with a maroon sweater, but in the afternoon heat she let the wrap slide down her arms.
She appeared to have indulged in a spot of retail therapy, as she had a bulging shopping bag slung from one of her arms.
‘A lot has happened in the past year…. I’ve undergone a transformative journey of self-love and growth,’ she wrote on Instagram the previous day.
‘I started working with a wonderful therapist, quit alcohol and weed, and moved to LA where I found my own apartment.
Joy added that she ‘took control of my career,’ letting go of past model agents and managers.
‘I started earning and making more money then ever,’ she noted.
‘I started creating a whole new team, and have surrounded myself with people who share the same values.’

Corrigan is also in love. She dates tech executive Ted Dhanik, 46. At Myspace, Dhanik was a department VP and had helped launch the company when it was still in its infancy. He founded the technology company Engage:BDR, which went public in Australia in 2017.
‘I met a supportive partner, moved in with him, and we got two puppies and a kitten!’ said the model.
Now she is much healthier.
‘Prioritizing my health, I began meditating, underwent an explant surgery, and started sharing my experiences to empower other women,’ added the cover girl.
The siren – who is also a former Sports Illustrated swimsuit star and Playboy Playmate –has more weight on her, which looks amazing.

‘I now eat and exercise for wellness, not appearance, and have gained 10 pounds. I stopped focusing on my weight and started listening to my intuition,’ said the star.
And she has hobbies she loves.
‘I’ve found joy in painting, acting, creating, and pursuing my dreams. I’m healthier and happier than ever before, all thanks to me P.S. I’m still evolving, learning to love myself more each day.’
She had her breast implants removed earlier this year.
Corrigan previously said that she was prepared to be open about her decision in an effort to spread awareness about ‘breast implant illness’ and to shed light on the truth of life with implants.
Similarly, last year former race car driver Danica Patrick also documented her breast implant removal, seven years after suffering health issues including hair loss, weight gain and dizziness.
In her recent video, Corrigan thanked the team behind her explant surgery as she showed the various stages of recovery.
‘I was terrified to go into surgery, but as soon as it was done there was a huge sense of relief and freedom, I instantly knew that I made the right choice and I was so glad I trusted my intuition,’ she explained.

‘Loving my body has been a new concept for me, and this is one act of love that my body will forever be grateful for,’ the former Playboy Playmate added.
And she promised to share more of her journey with her 1m followers.
‘Stay tuned as I post more videos showing you all my journey. THANK YOU to everyone who has sent me love and support in this time, I don’t know what I would do without my family and friends and Ted,’
The Reprisal actress also narrated the video of her breast implant removal.
‘I just got here. Dr. Rankin is about to do my explant,’ she started after showing a calming shot of the ocean crashing onto the beach.
‘I’m super excited, I’m super nervous, Mama Dee is my guardian angel. She met me, braided my hair and then Dr. Rankin came in to mark me up for surgery,’ she explained.
Joy said her boyfriend was there and waited outside for her.
‘I’m so grateful for him,’ she said over a shot of the couple hugging before her surgery.
‘The surgery went smooth, everything went great. I was super loopy after and could barely walk, but the whole team took such great care of me,’ she said.
‘I’m beyond grateful, wow,’ she said wearing ace bandages around her chest, ‘No boobies anymore,’ she added.
Joy was apparently experiencing symptoms of Breast Implant Illness, which led to her decision to have them removed.
Big decision: ‘I’m so beyond grateful for the unbelievable support from everyone so far! Here is a video of my surgery with David Rankin and his explant liaison Dee Hicks and the whole incredible team,’ the 35-year-old wrote alongside the video
For her health: ‘I was terrified to go into surgery, but as soon as it was done there was a huge sense of relief and freedom, I instantly knew that I made the right choice and I was so glad I trusted my intuition,’ she explained
Surgery time: ‘The surgery went smooth, everything went great. I was super loopy after and could barely walk, but the whole team took such great care of me,’ she said
Symptoms of BII may include fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, dry eyes and many other health concerns. Removal of the implants often results in immediate relief.
Fans took to the comments to praise her for sharing her journey and being honest.
One fan wrote: ‘You are an amazing advocate for #bii; you’ve been through so much and have shared your vulnerabilities and triumphs after explanting. Dr. Rankin has given you back your health. And you are glowing from the inside out.’
The doctor who performed her extant surgery chimed in: ‘Thank you Joy Corrigan for being a HUGE and much needed voice for BII. I am so proud of you and completely honored to have been a part of your journey to a healthy you!’
