Now that the English actress has gained mainstream fame, she has also sparked rumors of plastic surgery as observers think that her appearance has greatly improved over the years. One prominent plastic surgery rumor about the actress is that of a breast augmentation.

It has also been reported that Atwell has had dental surgery as it was observed that she rarely smiled before but it’s been noticed recently that Atwell is embracing her new set of perfect teeth as she’s flaunting them in her red carpet appearances.
