I find it tragic when celebrities ruin their faces with bad plastic surgery. One of my favorite actresses, Rose McGowan, was on a recent episode of “Law and Order: SVU” and when she appeared on the screen, I screamed, ”what the f*ck did she do to her face?” My boyfriend jumped out of his seat in shock. Apparently she was in a car accident a few years ago and had facial injuries, but I don’t know if that explains her new big pursed lips and eye lift. The before and after photos show her obvious plastic surgery. I’m not against plastic surgery at all, but I would be scared to death of having bad plastic surgery, and if celebrities with tons of money can’t get it right, what about the rest of us?
In the past I’ve written about anti-aging skin care and how to do all you can to prevent the need for surgery, but unfortunately nothing can prevent aging completely:( In Hollywood you can’t win – if you don’t get surgery and age normally you get ridiculed for looking old, but if you get work done, you risk looking like a clown or blow-up doll. There are hundreds of actresses that have had work done successfully, so you need to be vigilant about picking the right doctor. Finding a doctor that does great reconstruction surgery is even more challenging, but most botched jobs can be fixed – Lisa Rinna, for example, looks so much better now that she’s had her lip implant removed.
Here are more before and after pictures of female celebrities whose faces have fallen victim to bad plastic surgery:

Actress Nikki Cox has also inflated her lips like Rose McGowan, and it looks like she’s done something to her eyes too. These women are only in their 30s – they don’t need eye lifts!

Actress Daryl Hannah has reportedly dropped out of Hollywood and has blasted celebs that get plastic surgery and look like Muppets. Okay…! She claims she’s afraid of cosmetic surgery. Obviously, and unfortunately, she’s gotten over her fear!

What’s up with celebs and their fish lips and unnecessary eye lifts? Here’s actress Lara Flynn Boyle looking like all the other celebs with mutant lips and squinty eyes.

Singer Tori Amos has the face pulled too tight look from an over-zealous facelift:( I’ve written about Tori Amos’ hair loss on my other blog, and at least her new hair looks great.

Actress Meg Ryan went from all-American cutie to this… Plumping up your face can make it appear younger, but this is much too extreme.

Actress Ally Walker doesn’t look that weird here, but she’s definitely had something done that makes her look different, but not in a good way.

I don’t know what to say about the surgery of Joan Van Ark, former “Knot’s Landing” actress. And I’m all for chemical peels, but she looks like she’s had a really deep peel that’s given her an unnatural skin tone.

Priscilla Presley has admitted that she had botched silicone injections from using an unscrupulous doctor.
There are tons of other female stars that people think have had bad surgery – Heidi Montag, Janice Dickinson, Heidi Fleiss, Melanie Griffith, Tara Reid, and Joan Rivers, for example, but I think the stars shown here look worse because they started out beautiful and then turned into caricatures of themselves. My goal is to never have someone say “OMG – what happened to her face?” On the other hand, I already feel like I’ve hit the wall and I’m only in my mid-30s, so I understand the temptation to have a little work done.
What celebrities do you think have had bad plastic surgery? Would you ever get plastic surgery?

I saw Rose Mcgowan on Law and Order also and I was like WTF? She doesn’t look terrible, but just like she’s had work done. It makes her look older and the lips are overdone.

Oh and there are lot of guys with bad surgery like Kenny Rogers and Mickey Rourke.

OMG what happened to Joan Van Ark?!?! Looks like she got punched in the mouth! Such a shame… I hope they’re suing their doctors!

Rose McGowan and Meg Ryan were so beautiful, I really liked them …I had no idea about Rose tho, that IS sad…ugh.

I like to see the before and after noses. Kimora is a great example, but I would have had surgery too with that ‘before’ nose she had.

I never saw Tori Amos as the type to get any work done, and if she did I always thought it would create a subtle change. What happened? :(

Faces change as people get older. These women’s faces probably started changing as they hit their 30’s. But that is not allowed in Hollywood. So they decided to go to a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for fillers, botox, peels, and all the other “non-invasive techniques” they tell us will stop the clock. If your next job was on the line, you would have done the same. The sad thing is that if they had not done anything, they still would be out of luck in hollywood because instead of calling them cosmetic surgery freaks, people would be calling them old. There really is no winning in such a looks-based profession. So many they take their chances with the hottest derm and then hope they end up looking like Jennifer Lopez or Demi Moore when they’re done.

BTW, Ally walker doesn’t look like she has had work to me. She just looks like she has aged.

oh! I am afraid of surgery I don’t want to be a bad example I always aiming to be a beautiful example Oh why oh why what happened to them?

Look for Megan Fox’ pictures too. Ack,.

I’m guessing Joan Van Ark had a phenol peel, which has made her look translucent

I bumped into this site by accident.
I think it’s peculiar I actually recognised one of the girls in your banner.

Kim,
That’s a stock photo that I bought, so I guess the photographer that took the photo owns the rights to it and is selling it. It’s funny how you recognize her! I see billboards and ads all the time of the same photos I’ve bought for my website!

Poor Rose! Her nose looks horribly crooked, but I doubt that was surgery, probably the car accident. The whole lip thing in Hollywood is just out of control. Yes, I would get plastic surgery, and will get it when I am older and when it is basically the only thing you can do to improve your face. Until then it is skincare, and before resorting to surgery, Botox and Restalyn.
