How Did Mia Dio (From Social Media) Get Her Gorgeous Looks?
If you’ve ever scrolled past MiiaDio (Mia Angelina Donadio Cancio) on your feed and thought, “Wow, what’s her secret?”, you’re not alone. The influencer and content creator has been open (and refreshingly unapologetic) about the cosmetic treatments she’s tried over the years. From her first lip filler at 16 using a fake I.D. to surgical and non-surgical tweaks in adulthood, Mia has shared it all: the good, the bad, and the “maybe I went a little too far.”
Firstly, we at Beauty Cult want to say what’s natural is beautiful. In the above image on the left, that was Mia as a 14 year old girl. She looked great and perfectly normal, this is typical for the teen years. But we do understand the hold the Hollywood industry has on beauty and what is pushed, that’s why we firmly believe in the balance of letting kids be kids and families' personal conversations around medical spa treatments on whether or not it should be considered. If you’re under 18 reading this, you need parental consent to work with our team and get procedures done.
Here’s a closer look at what she’s actually had done, in her own words, we just broke it down for you below.
The Early Days: Lip Filler at 16
Mia’s first foray into cosmetic enhancements started with lip fillers, using a fake ID at just 16 years old. At the time, she admits she went for the cheapest filler she could find, which left her lips lumpy and overly stiff. Still, she kept going bigger, chasing that Bratz doll look.
Over time, she realized the size and shape weren’t working for her face. By 19, she began dissolving some of her filler to create a more natural, balanced shape, eventually refilling with better product and technique.
Why You Need a License and Board-Certified Injector:
A licensed, board-certified lip filler injector has the medical training to understand facial anatomy, avoid dangerous injection sites, and respond quickly if complications occur. They follow strict safety protocols to prevent infections, allergic reactions, or vascular blockages
Rhinoplasty: A Subtle Nose Transformation
After high school graduation, Mia invested in a rhinoplasty with Dr. Jason Altman in Coral Gables, FL. The changes were minimal, refining the tip and slightly shaving the bridge, but the effect was dramatic in creating a sharper, more harmonious profile. Cost? About $5,000.
Botox & Baby Botox
Once in her 20s, Mia started “baby Botox” in her forehead to prevent fine lines from forming, given how expressive she is on camera. She also noticed that Botox subtly lifted her brows, giving her a refreshed look without surgery.
PDO Threads & the Fox Eye Lift
For special occasions, Mia opts for PDO threads, dissolvable sutures placed under the skin to reposition and lift sagging tissue. In a fox eye lift, the threads tug the outer brow and temple upward, creating a catlike, elongated look. While results last only a few months, threads stimulate collagen production for longer-term skin firmness.
Veneers: A New Smile in Turkey
When her TikTok started gaining traction, Mia flew to Bodrum, Turkey, for 20 porcelain veneers. The treatment (about $5,500 including hotel and transport, but not flights) gave her larger, brighter teeth while keeping the shape natural.
Jawline & Cheek Contouring
Visiting celebrity injector Dr. Ron in Miami, Mia had a combination of treatments:
Under-eye filler to smooth hollows
Cheek filler for subtle contour
PDO threads to lift cheek fat pads back toward the ears, a technique that often makes people look “like they’ve lost weight” without actually losing fat
Masseter Botox (“jabotox”) to slim the jawline and reduce teeth grinding
Endolift Laser: Long-Term Skin Tightening
To further define her lower face, Mia tried Endolift®, a minimally invasive laser treatment that tightens skin and melts small fat deposits. The laser fiber is inserted under the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving elasticity for up to three years.
Breast Augmentation
Finally, Mia returned to Dr. Altman for breast implants, 430cc, chosen for a natural shape that sat closer together, creating subtle cleavage and balancing her tall frame.
The Takeaway from Mia’s Journey
Mia’s transformation wasn’t one magic procedure. It’s been years of experimenting, refining, and, as she puts it, “going from botched to Barbie.” She’s candid about the fact that cosmetic procedures didn’t “fix” her self-esteem, but they did boost her confidence once she found the right balance.
Her approach now? Strategic tweaks, a good injector, and knowing when to stop.
