This Week: Hollywood’s Awful Plastic Surgery
We’ve all seen the strange features on the faces of Hollywood celebrities: huge, overblown lips, badly-mangled noses that do not flatter faces, breast augmentations that look like grapefruit halves stuck to a chest, and other cosmetic surgery gone wrong.
Given the ability to pay for the best of anything and living cheek-by-jowl to — if not in the middle of — Beverly Hills (the world Mecca of excellent plastic surgery), it seems odd that wealthy celebrities such as Faye Dunaway, Meg Ryan, Kenny Rogers, and Bruce Jenner would endure bad plastic surgery.

According to Dr. Kotler, most men do not like their eyebrows
placed too high during a facelift like Kenny Rogers, pictured above,
who has said he’s not pleased with his facelift.

BodyDocBlogger: (Dr. Linder) When you see a woman who has breasts that look like two round bowls applied to her chest and a very wide cleavage, it’s a good sign the breast implants were put in above the chest muscles. Better surgeons take extra pains to put the implants below the chest muscles, thereby creating a more natural and soft look.
FaceDocBlogger: (Dr. Kotler) You are so right, Dr. Linder. The marching orders for reputable plastic surgeons are to make female patients look beautiful and natural, not alien and freakish.
BodyDocBlogger: Many people mistakenly think that wealth, fame and access to anything the heart desires would produce the very best in cosmetic plastic surgery. But of all things, not botched plastic surgery.
FaceDocBlogger: Celebrities will charm, cajole and beg for a certain plastic surgery procedure — even though the medical risks far outweigh the benefits. Nonetheless, the wise doctor knows when — and when not — to operate and certainly can “just say no.” A separate issue is that when there are the right reasons for surgery, sometimes, celebrities just choose the wrong surgeon. There can be a mismatch between the correct procedure and the doctor’s talent to perform it well.
BodyDocBlogger: A beginning surgeon, being young and impressionable, may give in to the charm and do that seventh or eighth nasal surgery on Michael Jackson.
FaceDocBlogger: Talk about somebody who does not know when to stop! It’s a proven fact that when men come in for an initial consultation about rhinoplasty, they are quick to say the one thing they do not want is a nose like Michael Jackson’s.
BodyDocBlogger: As in Priscilla Presley’s case, some celebrities are noted for jumping on the latest fad. If it’s not the cabbage soup diet or the Mistletoe diet, it’s the latest fad procedure from a momentarily popular doctor who was perhaps featured in the paper last week.
FaceDocBlogger: And then there are some cosmetic surgeons who are blinded by the limelight and think they are becoming a celebrity. It may seem apparent to the surgeon that he or she is soon headed toward the rarefied, but unreal, sphere in which celebrities live and receive homage from we ordinary mortals.
BodyDocBlogger: It can be very, very difficult to refuse the famous person sitting in front of you whose face may be known to billions of people worldwide.
FaceDocBlogger: Yes, indeed, doctor. Been there and done that! But the surgeon has to muster his best instincts and, like Shakespeare said, “Screw his courage to the sticking point” and then do the right thing for the best interests of all patients, regardless of fame.
BodyDocBlogger: Given that their faces are their fortunes, actors and actresses are the people who should be the most conservative about rejuvenation surgery and seek out the best, most reliable advice possible.
FaceDocBlogger: Right you are again, doctor. Let’s get the word out to avoid any more celebrity plastic surgery nightmares.
