Courtney Love had her lips downsized and her nose widened during a recent trip to Paris, Us Weekly has learned.

A source close to Love tells Us that the rocker flew to the City of Light shortly before Christmas to see a surgeon who specializes in "fixing" botched cosmetic surgery jobs.

After years of sporting a silicone-injected pucker, the singer is "happy to have her mouth back,” according to a source.

Love, 42, showed up to the Freedom Writers premiere looking swollen and covered in makeup in an apparent attempt to conceal the effects of the surgery.

At the premiere, Us asked Love if it was true that she’d gotten more work done. “I'm not going to comment on that tonight,” she said. “I just think me looking human is cool."

"She doesn't want to talk about that one," says the source. "She wants the swelling to go down and for people not to tell.”

However, it might be awhile until we see the finished product of the operation. According to plasticsurgery.org, swelling may be present for months after the surgery, especially in the tip. The final results of rhinoplasty may not be apparent for a year or more.

Love recently swore off plastic surgery in a list of New Year’s Resolutions posted on her Web site (and later taken down, most likely on charges of incoherency). She vowed: “no more surgery for any reason other than medical until i really need it in my 60s.”
