However, the picture quickly attracted attention for reasons beyond her skincare treatment. Several social media users left remarks questioning her noticeably slim appearance, with some comments crossing into body-shaming.
One commenter wrote, “We get it you’re skinnier than all of us,” while another questioned whether she had undergone rib-removal surgery.
Amid the criticism, another Instagram user stepped forward to defend Nicola, calling out those targeting her body and appearance.

“Stop body shaming her and other ppl. Are you all perfect?” the supporter wrote.
Nicola noticed the encouraging message and personally responded, expressing disappointment over the negativity directed at her.

The exchange continued as the supporter shared their own struggles with body image and health, while reminding Nicola that she should not be judged by strangers online.
The actress appreciated the heartfelt message and responded with more words of encouragement.
“I read them and it means a lot to me,” Nicola wrote, adding, “You’re so beautiful, you’re perfect.”
Her response has brought further attention to the issue of body-shaming on social media, where celebrities frequently face scrutiny over their physical appearances.
The interaction also highlighted the importance of kindness and support, particularly when public figures become targets of unnecessary comments about their bodies.
