Her aides did little to play down the suggestion and refused to confirm or deny the claims.
Prior to the TV debate, wrinkle lines could clearly be seen around Mrs Clinton's eyes and on her forehead.

"The instant Hillary appeared, the woman behind me whispered 'Oh look at Hillary. She's had work done'," the columnist wrote.
Last year John Spencer, who Mrs Clinton beat in the New York senate race, claimed she had had "millions of dollars of plastic surgery".
The wife of former president Bill is favourite for the Democratic nomination.
