Aaaauuughh! (Bad plastic surgery)

Gemini Cricket · 12-03-2007, 12:12 PM

My eyes! My eyes!

Bad Joan van Ark plastic surgery.

Why why why to people do this to themselves? Age gracefully. I mean, Mary Tyler Moore looks strange now as does Courtney Love, Joan Rivers and Dolly Parton.

Wow. Just. Wow.

So, here's something for discussion. Would you ever get plastic surgery?

(And, I'm glad I'm not a celebrity. The tabloids (US and UK) are just brutal.)

Would I ever get plastic surgery? Probably not on my face unless I have had disfiguring scarring. Hell, I never even got a boob job post partial mastectomy, although I think about it now and then. I'm not opposed to plastic surgery, I think I'm just either too lazy or too comfortable with the way I am. But, give me a bottle of hair dye any day! Mascara and lipstick - yeah, baby! Permanent hair removal - if it wasn't so expensive, I'd be all over it. Toes MUST be polished.

I'm also lucky that I have decent skin. I may think differently if I had skin problems.

I would like to hear more about this particular one. To me the photos look like she is still recovering from some sort of work - her face still appears bruised overall.

I think surgery is up to the individual. Personally, I wouldn't do (why mess with perfection

), but it is up to each individual to decide (though for the most part, I do discourage it).

I prefer seeing people age gracefully - myself included. I don't mind my developing eye crinkles. The only (non-medical) plastic surgery I would consider is skin removal after naturally-lost weight.

Nope. No way- I think growing old gracefully is truly more attractive than the taut, painful masks these people wind up with. Look at Kenny Rogers- he looks terrible, and he regrets having the procedure.

Permanent hair removal? Yes.
Facial life? No.
Pec implants? No.
Eye bag surgery that lots of male celebs are getting? No.
Skin tag removal? Yes.

I mean, argh. And, yes, I think the photo is not touched up or anything and the lighting is really bad but... wow... poor Joan.

Gemini Cricket · 12-03-2007, 12:31 PM

Wow. I just looked at a couple of Kenny pics. He doesn't even look like himself any more.

I'd rather expend my energy toward becoming more pretty on the inside.

Is there a surgery for that?
