Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Friday he said: "Someone gave me a backhanded compliment on Instagram the other day. They were like 'Oh lord how much Botox have you had?
"I said, 'thank you, none!'"
Presenter Richard Arnold then asked him: "Have you had work?"
And Robbie replied: "Well yeah, but it's all fallen out now.
"If you live in Los Angeles long enough you'll eventually get something done. I've had a thatch done that I didn't need. It was just out of boredom."

Robbie, 44, is preparing to battle it out with Coldplay over this year’s Christmas No1 spot and will perform tracks from his new album at Radio 2 In Concert next week.
The music icons are set for the biggest chart battle of the year on Friday when they each release new albums — Coldplay with Everyday Life and Robbie with his festive collection.
Speaking to The Sun about the record, Robbie said: "There have been none in ages. Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You was in 1994 and The Darkness did Christmas Time (Don’t Let the Bells End) in 2003. Michael Bublé had a huge album but no Christmas hit singles.”
Robbie has already spent a month promoting the album in interviews and has dedicated several hours to doing live broadcasts on Instagram.
He guaranteed fans they will receive a signed copy if they order the CD from his website.
On Saturday night alone, he spent two and a half hours talking to fans about the album.
A charts source said: “Coldplay and Robbie are both massive forces when it comes to selling albums so the numbers they will shift next week will be huge.
“They have strong track records and very dedicated fanbases who will fight for their act to get to No1."

The star has enlisted Tyson Fury on the record.
Speaking about the duet, Robbie said: "The good he is doing by talking about his frailties as a human being is incredibly commendable.
"We are similar in many ways because we’ve both donned superhero capes and projected a character on to the world and that is not who we really are.”
