The years are inevitable for our skin and body, and plastic surgeries and celebrities walk hand in hand, because many of them appeal to cosmetic medicine to try to go back in time when they see signs of wrinkles in the mirror. Some have good results, but others bring along some side effects due to complications, misconduct or excessive interventions.
Looking back into the past, we can see a very famous surgery made on movie legend Elizabeth Taylor by Dr. Ivo Pitanguy, the father of plastic surgery in Brazil. It was made from head to toes, and it was a total success.
Sophía Loren, Gina Lollobrígida, Jackie Onassis and many other celebrities had their surgeries made by this famous doctor who became an icon in the history of cosmetic surgery. On an interview to BBC World, 2 years ago, he said: “We don’t have the vocabulary of a poet to create beautiful words, nor do we have a sculpture’s chisel to create a statue or the colors of a painter. We have limitations inside shape and anatomy, but we have the skills to reconstitute many deformities.”
He added: “Deformity is not measured by what you see, but by how much it makes you suffer instead. This is as important as when Freud found out that diseases were not only organic, and this is the deepest lesson I have inside my skin”. On August 6th, 2016, he died at 90 years old.
However, some celebrities regret having increased the size of their breast, like Pamela Anderson, Victoria Beckham y Demi Moore, who had to make other surgeries to get a better size, according to their body shape. Actor Mickey Rourke, after many surgeries said: “Most of it was to mend the mess of my face because of the boxing, but I went to the wrong guy to put my face back together.”
Nicole Kidman has injected so much Botox that she turned into a completely different person from that face we once knew, because there’s been so much change, and she regrets this. Kim Kardashian said she was scared after injecting botox, because she was too young to do so. Actor George Clooney is looking good and is quite happy about the results of the surgeries he’s undertaken.
The most terrible cases of failure in cosmetic surgery can be seen in many other people, like Jackie Stallone, Donatella Versace, Amanda Lepore and Goldie Hawn, who have decided to change their features, which made them unrecognizable.
If you are thinking about getting a plastic surgery, then get informed about the doctor’s experience and get to see the people who have undertaken plastic surgeries with this doctor before. Be honest with yourself and don’t fall into excess. Your appearance is important, but keep it within normal parameters.
