The only way I actually recognize Anna Delvey is by her ankle monitor.

The creature that greets me at her apartment is a willowy blonde, far removed from the girl with glasses, brown hair and cherubic cheeks who was on trial back in 2019 in her notorious fraud case.

“I wouldn’t call it a makeover,” Delvey, 34, demurred. “I haven’t had any facelift or plastic surgery, and I have a great [glam] team.”

But she has lost 40 pounds and embraced a long list of beauty treatments, including lasers and chemical peels and PRP therapy — better known as a vampire facial, where your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, then applied to your face via micro-needling to promote collagen production. 

She is able to stick to this extensive new routine for one reason: The range for her ankle monitor, required as Delvey continues to fight deportation proceedings, has been increased to 75 miles.

“It’s much easier to look better when you’re able to leave your home,” she said.

She’s done Botox but doesn’t like it, and admits she tried Ozempic last year but “It just made me very depressed. It made me feel like it sucked the life out of me.”

Instead, she’s been using a vibration plate — essentially, a jiggling balance board — which can help build muscle and lose weight.

An abbreviated list of the treatments and potions she’s tried over the past year: red light therapy to combat wrinkles, cupping to boost blood flow, microcurrents to firm skin tone, magnesium baths to ease stress, radio frequencies to smooth and tighten skin, cryotherapy to reduce inflammation, NAD+ IVs for cellular rejuvenation, Genesis laser to combat rosacea and salmon-sperm facials for collagen renewal.

While she cops to having been “gifted” some beauty products, she also showed off Amazon receipts for others — and said that she’s largely still living off money from her 2024 stint on “Dancing With the Stars.”

Delvey said she has seen celebrity facialists Joanna Vargas (a favorite of Naomi Watts and Mindy Kaling) and Joanna Czech (beloved by Kim Kardashian and Hailey Bieber). She also credits her glow to happiness: Page Six can reveal that she’s been dating someone for two years, though she wants to keep his name private.

“He’s my house-arrest boyfriend,” she joked, adding that he retrieved her after the Lasik surgery that means she no longer wears the black-framed glasses that were once her signature.

We met days after “Bunnygate,” a scandal that erupted after three rabbits used in a photo shoot with Delvey were later found dumped in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park, prompting fierce online backlash. As Page Six previously reported, a 19-year-old assistant on the shoot admitted on social media that he “panicked” and “released them [in the park], thinking that was my best option. That belief was wrong, and I regret it deeply.” 

Delvey said she received death threats over that matter but insisted: “For once, I have done nothing wrong!”

She has moved out of the East Village walk-up where she first lived after being released from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility back in October 2022.

She was taken into custody for overstaying her visa in March 2021, shortly after her release from prison — where she served almost two years on larceny convictions for defrauding banks, jet services and lavish hotels around the world out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Delvey’s been fighting deportation since then, determined to stay in the US.

She’s not a big fan of gyms but, with more freedom, now walks around four miles a day around the city. Training for “Dancing With the Stars” — for which she received special permission from ICE to travel to LA — helped her start to get in shape, but she was voted off in week two.

“The food is just the worst” in prison, she said. “I looked really, really bad when I came out of jail. I think I was at my heaviest … and I was, like, really [self-]conscious. It’s so embarrassing.

“I was eating, like, Cheez-Its and Diet Coke from the vending machine … and I don’t eat meat, but you probably don’t want to eat meat that they’re serving in jail anyway,” she said.

“And then when I came out … I needed to eat everything that I was missing.”

Now, she abides by the ProLon diet plan made famous by Gwyneth Paltrow, consuming 700 to 1,100 calories per day, and will often snack on just one big Sweetgreen salad all day long.

Delvey, whose life story was turned into the 2022 Netflix hit “Inventing Anna,” starring Julia Garner, was born Anna Sorokin but changed her name while infamously posing as a wealthy German heiress during her fraud spree.

Today, she said, she answers to both: “I don’t really have that much control over what people call me. I mean, I might get married and chase my last name, I don’t know. I only came up with Anna Delvey because I wanted to go global, because Sorokin is such a common name … it means a bird in Russian. So it was like Jane Smith, pretty much.”

To go with her new look she’s looking for another fresh start. Delvey is keen to work on prison reform and helping prisoners prepare for life on the outside — and working on a TV project with her friend Kelly Cutrone, a fashion publicist who has co-starred on reality shows including MTV’s “The City.”

She still has to check in with ICE once a month but said there is still no real update on her case, which is being helmed by a team of DC lawyers .

“I don’t mind it because I’m not doing anything against the rules,” she said. “I feel pretty secure and I like where I am and my life … but it’s always like, ‘What’s next?’ 

“I would hate to be ‘Anna, the con artist’” forever, she said. “It’s up to me to do something more interesting.
