Her husband Antonio Banderas insists that he wants her to grow old naturally, wrinkles and all.

But whether Melanie Griffith listens to his opinion is another matter.

At the weekend premiere for the movie Shrek the Third in Hollywood, the 49-year-old actress provoked speculation that she has undergone a new bout of cosmetic surgery.

Her skin was taut across the forehead and cheekbones, while her full lips appeared to have the makings of the notorious “trout pout”.

Banderas, still a heart-throb at 46, has been married to her for 11 years.

Previous husbands include actor Steven Bauer and Miami Vice star Don Johnson (twice).

The Spanish-born star of films including The Mask of Zorro has said: “Hollywood stars are not supposed to be perfection. I don’t believe in perfection. I think it is a mistake.

“I said to her, ‘I want to see you growing old and I will grow old with you too, and I don’t care”. I like her the way she is. Wrinkles are beautiful.”

Harley Street surgeon Apostolos Gaitanis, however, is in little doubt that she has had recent surgery.

He said: “It is possible that her youthful looks are down to genes, but I would say that in this case it is unlikely.”
