The pressure to stay young is a burden Sex and the City's Kristin Davis knows all too well.

"It's hard to be confronted with your younger self at all times," the 58-year-old recently told U.K.'s The Telegraph. "And it's a challenge to remember that you don't have to look like that. The internet wants you to—but they also don't want you to. They're very conflicted."

For Davis, she first turned to Botox to maintain her appearance. "I was super-excited I didn't have to have my lateral lines," she recalled. "But I didn't do anything else for a long time."

Then, she tried facial fillers, which she admitted have been good...and not so good. "I've had to get them dissolved and I've been ridiculed relentlessly," the actress shared. "And I have shed tears about it. It's very stressful."

And just like that...her lip filler became part of the conversation.

"You're trusting doctors [but] people personally blame us when it goes wrong—[as if] I jabbed a needle in my face," Davis said. "No one told me it didn't look good for the longest time. But luckily I do have good friends who did say eventually."

"The thing is you don't smile at yourself in the mirror," she continued. "Who smiles at themselves in the mirror? Crazy people."
