I am all for taking care of yourself and looking your best, but cosmetic surgery, no. Just no.

I think she made a blue, she would have looked better if she hade done the "grow old gracefully thing".
Although some people look better, I think Cher looks better now than she did 30 years ago.

Cosmetic surgery can be taken too far as you can see by the "Catwoman" below.  

Catwoman Jocelyn Wildenstein flaunts her feline features on a romantic day out with her man.

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder...and that obviously goes double for Catwoman Jocelyn Wildenstein.

The 62-year-old's surgically-enhanced face looked scarier than ever when she stepped out on the prowl with partner Lloyd Klein.

Luckily for her fashion designer Klein is obviously a moggy lover and her feline features didn't seem to bother him on the couple's romantic day out.

The pair were arm in arm as they went for a stroll in Beverly Hills before stopping for a cocktail at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

Jocelyn has been dubbed Catwoman due to her shocking surgically-enhanced features, which are said to be based on a love of exotic wild cats.

The ex-wife of late billionaire Alec Wildenstein underwent at least seven facelifts and drastic eye reconstruction surgery and received collagen injections to her lips, cheeks and chin.

During her marriage to Alec the socialite began to fear her husband was losing interest in her and, inspired by his love for cats, began altering her face to make her appear more feline.

Despite spending £2million on altering her previously-attractive looks, Alec was said to have screamed in horror when he saw her face.

Yea, she's a freak,mantra, There is a guy who looks pretty freaky as well ,he was married to Liza Minelli, but I cant think of his name.

I think you mean David Gest - he was one unfortunate looking bloke.  Minelli used to beat him up constantly - so perhaps his face was that way through reconstructive surgery.  She's not that crash hot either.

If you could ..would you? ...

Would the surgery include the set of mind, which some people call soul or psyche?

Is the mind/soul/psyche cosmetic?

You seem so intellectual tallowood!

The face as the rest of body is not cosmetic but the cosmetics can apply to it.
Is it not the same with the mind/soul/psyche?

What is intellectual? Is it like eating brains?

How can you cosmetically alter something you can't see?

That is exactly what intellectual is.

With tools that are invisible such as psychological or religious tools.

Means that I'm part time casual intellectual.

You know what cosmetic means, right?

the best cosmetic surgery is a smile

Not on some people, sprintcyclist.

A few years ago I was vehemently opposed to cosmetic surgery but after watching some television shows on the subject I'm not that opposed anymore.

It depends on the reason.  First, we need to remember it applies to other areas than just the face.  The television show that helped change my mind was a woman with small natural breasts but not very shapely had her breasts done, only to an adequate size, not huge and the result was very good.

The figure looked natural.

I also once knew this young woman that had a nose job done.  Her nose was of an odd shape but it did not look out of place but after the surgery it does.  She appears happy with it though.

There is another fairly young woman that I know who I would say desperately needs a nose job and I never suspected I would ever think anything like that.

A few years ago I would have considered cosmetic surgery the height of vanity.

If I have a budget, why not? a little cosmetic enhancement perhaps.

Cosmetic Surgery is choice..,if you decide to have cosmetic surgery done on your body you need to know the risks and from then weight your options. Second, it is also important  to seek the service of certified and reliable cosmetic surgeon. All in all, its your choice, what will be the outcome of your decision, you need to bare it.  :D

Good to see that there is no pressure selling at your clinic

Good to see you just put information infront of your clients in a mono-tone without any pressure or influence at all so they can make their informed choices

The problem with plastic surgery used to trick others into believing you're younger than you are is that not all areas can be pinned and tucked.

You know someone is 60 or 70 when their face looks good, but their neck and hands look wrinkled and liver spotted. These areas are a dead giveaway and the contrast of smoothe and wrinkled spoils the entire affect of plastic surgery and just makes them look like a fake.

Once someone has had an extreme face lift - their entire personality seems to change also. You only have to look at various celebrities after a "renovation". They become a semblance of their old selves.

Yea I have to agree with you mantra, I was in Bangalow which is near Byron a couple of years ago and after having lunch I was looking at some houses in the real estate office, I noticed a woman next to me and thought I recognised her, I thought oh does she work in the chemist or whatever, and then I noticed the person with her, then I realised who she was. It was Linda Kozlowski, Paul Hogans wife, and Hoges was with her. WOW, I couldn't believe it was him, like you said his face looks as tho he was about 45 but his hands and neck were that of a man twenty years older than that, it wasn't a good look, he'd have done better to age gracefully, don't believe it when he says he has not had any work done on him, he has.

I was thinking of Hoges when I posted that Skippy. I saw him on TV not so long ago and he has the face of a stranger. He might have been craggy and lined years ago, but it suited him. Now he looks like he's wearing a plastic mask.

These people in their 60's and 70's who might appear at first glimpse young with their face totally renovated can't stop their bodies from ageing. It must be hell trying to keep up with someone 30-40  years younger when you're 70. How do their poor old bodies cope?

Michael Douglas is another one. His body has just about had it, but he has to keep up with a younger wife and babies and no matter how tired he feels - he has to maintain the act of pretending to be youthful.
