The 40-year-old TV star is set to go without the cosmetic treatment in the future after taking advice from her father, who claimed she had a "big manly jaw".
After showing her dad a photo of her, Gemma said: "He was like, ‘Gemma you look like a man. You look awful. You’ve got a big manly jaw but you’re a woman’. It was true."
Gemma previously spent £8,000 having work on her face as well as £2,000 on a designer vagina but is no feeling more confident about herself since she had all her filler dissolved.
She told Best magazine: "I got carried away. It’s very easy when you are seeing something around you and on social media. You start thinking, ‘I need my cheeks bigger, my lips done.'
"But I got to 40, looked in the mirror and thought, ‘Nah, I need to go back to how I looked before.'
“So I got my fillers dissolved, I have no Botox – I can move my whole face. I feel so much better.”
It comes after it was reported the 'Diva Forever' star is launching a "fitness empire" after she lost more than three stone by focusing on her health and wellbeing during lockdown.
An insider said: "Gemma is launching a fitness empire this summer and she is planning on dominating the market. “Along with overhauling her own lifestyle, Gemma wants to help her fans do the same.
"She has surrounded herself with experts like personal trainers and dieticians and is using their know-how to create an all-inclusive app."
The app is set to be an "affordable subscription service" to take fans on the same journey she's been on.
The source added: "She is so passionate about fitness and is raving about how much it has helped her, not only physically but mentally.
"The app would include diet and training plans, and a well-being section which would focus on mental health."
