She later appeared in a range of films including *Những Thiên Thần Áo Trắng*, *Cô Dâu Đại Chiến*, *Cột Mốc 23*, and *Thiên Mệnh Anh Hùng*. However, she garnered more attention for her extensive plastic surgery procedures rather than her contributions to cinema. Phi Thanh Vân remains one of the most discussed celebrities in Vietnam for her numerous cosmetic surgeries.

She entered the entertainment industry in 2007, initially exploring various roles such as actress, model, and TV presenter. However, she often found herself cast in minor or supporting roles, notably in *Cô Gái Xấu Xí*, where she played Phương Trinh. While she participated in films like *Gái Nhảy 2*, *Cô Dâu Đại Chiến*, and *Long Ruồi*, her acting career never really reached the prominence she had hoped for.

Phi Thanh Vân’s personal life has been just as turbulent as her career. She has been through two failed marriages. Her first husband was 15 years older and had a child from a previous marriage. Despite their hopes for a family, they divorced in 2012 due to cultural differences. Two years later, Phi Thanh Vân entered a relationship with a younger man, Bảo Duy, and they welcomed a child together in 2016. However, their relationship also ended in divorce shortly thereafter. Despite receiving attention from wealthy men and younger suitors, she has chosen to remain a single mother, dedicating her time to raising her son.

Often dissatisfied with the results, she has repeated some procedures several times. She has openly stated that her decision to undergo surgery is for her own happiness and self-image, rather than to please others. She has expressed, 'For me, beauty is about upgrading my own image, for my own joy, not for men. With my new appearance, I hope to feel more confident in myself.'
