Would you, or did you have some plastic surgery done?

Plastic surgery would be a possibility but only if I had disfigurement as others have stated.
Definitely a no to cosmetic surgery. I have watched a few programmes where cosmetic surgery has gone wrong and even botox and/or fillers have not left the person feeling good about the surgery or themselves.

I have no trust in cosmetic surgery it frightens the 'hell' out of me. Can't be pulled about. ;) :giggle:

You will always be Chic!

Thanks for saying so Radish, but I'm not so sure. I was born with a congenital issue which makes my blood clot badly and my skin not heal well after being cut. Surgery would be mess. I have had to have scar revision before because of this but sooo carefully so as not to make the original injury even worse. :sick:
 
I have some facial scars from a few scraps in my youth

I just grew a beard

Still hard to look at, but nobody asks 'what happened' anymore

As for age related cares

Heh

It's a bit late

My immediate boss (company CEO) had that done
Looked surprised for several weeks

Called him bright eyes
I don't think he ever became very fond of that moniker
My surgeon did a really good job. I didn’t have a brow lift, I had the fat pockets under my eyes removed. Looked very normal after the swelling and bruising went away. I received several compliments after the healing was over. The scalpel was used to cut right in the fold under the eyes, so the scar is not noticeable.
 
i would gladly turn in my wrinkles for teeth-no plastic teeth

almost fifty years ago: horseplay with men old enough to know better-went through window headfirst, had two
big facial scar, looked like a pirate... has faded over the years, a bit

No. So many of the celebs that you see have become less recognizable due to their facial surgeries. After a few, it distorts your face.
I have a good friend, older than I. She has had so much done to her face that when I look at her, I find it hard to see my friend as I knew her. She was always an extremely attractive woman but not in her mind. She was always trying to fix perceived "flaws" and wanting to appear "younger." She has never been happy with her looks but I think it goes deeper than that. Changing your looks doesn't guarantee a better life. My two cents.
 
The issue that I have with having reconstructive facial surgery is that most, if not all surgeons, prefer the patient to go to sleep. Before I went under the knife, I spoke with my surgeon about this because I saw a lady on the Oprah show who said she had similar to my surgery done and she had a choice between going to sleep and getting Lidocaine. I asked my surgeon about just using a local anesthetic and he said he preferred putting me under using Propofol, so I don't make any quick moves and mess up his work. I agreed.
 
A few years ago I managed to stick to a good diet for a whole year and lost quite a bit of weight. My reward was a haggard looking, saggy face. So I checked out a skin clinic in the area that did something called a Quick Lift. It was really just the usual combination face/neck lift. I had the pre-visit and was told it would cost about $10,000. [cough] Okay. Then I started to lose my nerve and at the same time I started to gain the weight back which made my face look much better. Problem solved, money saved.
