Dancing With the Stars alum Lindsay Arnold is going under the knife to celebrate the holiday season and her birthday.
“My Christmas present this year is that I’m getting a breast augmentation,” Arnold, 30, said in a Thursday, December 26, TikTok video. “Guys, I’m freaking out … but I’m also so excited. That is happening in, like, a little over two weeks.”
Arnold then detailed the timeline for her upcoming procedure.
“I am turning 31 on January 11, and Sam [Cusick] and I are going to Mexico for a little getaway,” she said, referring to her husband. “We’re doing three nights and then we get home. The next day, I am getting my breast augmentation. I am also getting a lift. … It’s just so many decisions and it’s hard that you make the choices for yourself and you have to live with those choices.”

While the accelerated timeline has been “a bit of a whirlwind” for Arnold, she “always knew” she wanted a breast augmentation.
“It’s something I’m very excited about,” Arnold added. “I know there’s mixed opinions on this type of thing, and so I get it. … If it’s not for you, it’s not for you.”
In the comments section of her post, one follower further asked how Arnold would explain the process to her 3-year-old daughter, Sage.
“Hahaha not sure how I will either quite yet,” Arnold, who also shares 10-month-old daughter June with husband Cusick, replied.

Arnold has previously been candid about her plastic surgery experience.
“I’ve been getting Botox for years now,” the choreographer said in a January 2023 social media video. “I get it in between my brows, I get it on my forehead. I obviously am not doing it right now because I’m pregnant. I also have gotten lip injections for a long time as well. I haven’t done it in a while, so any changes you’re noticing now are changes from my face swelling during pregnancy. People are always like, ‘Well, why are you trying to hide it?’”
Arnold has since learned to embrace the natural look after becoming a parent.
“Since becoming a mom, it has changed so much for me,” Arnold exclusively told Us Weekly in May. “I feel like beauty comes from within. … I am very much, ‘Less is more’ when it comes to skincare and makeup. I wish I cared more about this when I was younger, but [now] I’ve got a full routine that I’m consistent with every single day.”

She added, “Staying healthy and doing things that feel good to my body every single day is so important. When I feel good, I feel confident.”
Arnold also hopes to pass her beauty wisdom onto Sage and June.
“I want them to know that beauty comes from within and comes from how you feel about yourself,” she told Us. “I hope to just instill confidence in them and help them know that they are perfect just the way that they are and that they are beautiful in their own skin.”
