I just wish that we lived in a world where women can age naturally and be loved and respected for who they are.

People had facelifts in the 1940s 50s 60s and 70s and didn’t look as bad as these two do.

My mother died at 93 . She was blessed with a beautiful bone structure and cornflower blue eyes. She came from an English working class background, had a high IQ, cultured, worked hard all her life. She would have scorned the idea of cutting her face up. She aged naturally and without vanity. The hospital nurses in her final weeks marvelled at her natural beauty. I don't criticize others - especially those rectifying genuine facial disfigurement, accident or injury. What breaks my heart are the number of beautiful women who have denied themselves and the world the joy of watching their faces mature into beautiful old age.

As a woman, I feel blessed that I don’t feel the need to do this sort of thing. I’m not beautiful, attractive, pretty - whatever word you want to use - but I am me. This is the face and body I was given.

What is wrong with looking our age. By the time we show our age, we have gained much more wisdom and life experience, and my grandmothers face was beautiful to me, untouched.

[purpurina]

I think a big part of the problem (and this counts for almost all plastic surgery) is that the face comes as a whole unit, and it moves together and ages as a unit. So when you intervene something, the harmony between the parts is disjointed.

I’m 66….soon to be 67. Watching these types of videos reminds me to never waste my money on such things. I look good at my age. I’ve earned my wrinkles and accepted that this is simply aging. SURE there are some things I’d like to change, but why mess around with results I may not like. Signed, Happy Being Me. ❤❤❤

They have “ sad” results, They looked so much better before the surgery. Close to unrecognizable.

As a 62-year-old I agree that it is hard when you were once beautiful (as I was) and then one day you're not. I saved my money for 4 years and was finally able to get a lower face lift. Did my research, went to 4 different credible certified plastic surgeons but what I learned was number one; Never be the last case. he was tired and my results were not great. He didn't botch it but the whole reason I wanted it was that I had the marionette lines that aged me, well after the surgery my neck and jaw looked good but no improvement on my marionette lines. And 2; If your gut tells you not to go through with it then don't. They were supposed to take me at 11:00 am. I waited with my sister in the lobby until after 2, I was about to leave when they called my name, I paused and looked at my sister and thought I should not go through with it, it's so late I know he'll be tired, but I had waited for this for over 4 years. Always listen to your gut!

I always think about Goldie's scene in "First Wives Club" where she's at the doctor's and he tells her if he puts anything else in, she's gonna' be able to "blink her lips". Maybe she should have listened.

I had facelift. My doctor in Virginia would only do a "natural, soft"facelift. He would not do tight pull. Thus he tacked up my neck and facial muscles to where they had been naturally and liposuctioned my jowl area removing excess fat. It worked. When I returned to work those who didn't know thought I'd been on vacation and said I looked rested/refreshed. I went along with it. I was 65 at time. I wanted to look refreshed. This surgeon is very highly respected. He also gave me a strict mediterrean diet to go on 7 days before surgery so I would have less chance of bruising. Also recommended supplements to help with healing
I had no bruises and my face was a little round for a few months until it settled.

I used to work for Mae West. she had boxes of adhesive stickers called "Wings" from the 1930s. It was like the glue part of an envelope but small and shipped like angle wings. We would stick them around her hair line with a piece of elastic under the Wing. When it dried we'd pull the elastic back and it it would stretch the skin. Hiding the elastic with hair pieces it pulled the wrinkles back but her eyes were huge then. She liked that and applied eyeliner a quarter inch from the eyelid to accentuate her eyes. We'd tape her abdomen and push up her bust and in 2 hours we'd turn an old lady into Mae West.

She was a DOLL and I miss her every single day. She was a kind and considerate woman. I knew her towards the end of her life and boy do I have some stories.

As usual, your commentary is intelligent, calm, and polite. You choose your words carefully so as to not bash any patients or colleagues. Excellent videos and very educational.

[themindhelp]

With all due respect...i honestly believe if both of them just let the things you know follow their course...naturally...they would look so much better than this!!! They were so beautiful🥺🥺🥺

Goldie Hawn looked beautiful in Death Becomes Her. It's unfortunate that her face is drastically altered now.

[dwhite]

I have total respect for celebs who let themselves age gracefully!

[cUser]

Your analyses are informative. Suggestion: keep the photos up a few more seconds. They’re swept away [w/ sound] too quickly. Thank you.

After my mud pack treatment, everyone said I looked beautiful--- then the pack fell off.

[jillsalkin]

I always ask, "With their money and all the surgeons in LA, why do these women end up with terrible results?"

[rozhollywood]

Yes it's such a shame. The problem is once anyone starts to get plastic surgery it never stops. I just saw Pricilla Presley and she really looks nothing like herself anymore. She was really beautiful and I think she would have aged well.
