15 Plastic Surgeries That Disfigured A Celeb’s Face

We live in a time where beauty enhancements are normalized and natural assets are adjusted at whim to suit current trends. As plastic surgery becomes more normalized, we see and hear of more and more people opting to go under the knife. While these changes can be subtle, there are instances where it’s quite noticeable and may even end up looking rather bad. Scroll below to check out a list of before and after plastic surgery pics of celebs who fell victim to the scalpel’s lie.

#1 Lara Flynn Boyle

Image source: Alan Light, Michael Tullberg / Getty Image Lara Flynn Boyle has not publicly confirmed any cosmetic surgeries, yet noticeable alterations like plumper lips and smoother skin emerged in the early 2000s, attributed by observers to possible collagen and Botox. Further changes by 2006 led experts to speculate about a range of procedures, including rhinoplasty, lip augmentation, fillers, or even a facelift. Her previously defined facial structure has since become puffier, a change some believe could be from fillers wearing off and resulting in sagging.

#2 Priscilla Presley

Separately, Dr. Youn posits that her skin's waxy quality might be attributable to a history of multiple laser treatments and Botox applications.

#3 Joan Rivers

While some might have considered her cosmetic work excessive, Rivers herself remained unapologetic about her choices.

#4 Michael Jackson

Image source: Anthony Barboza / Getty Image, Mark Mainz / Getty Image The progressive alteration of Michael Jackson's nose, resulting from several reported rhinoplasties, became a widely discussed and controversial element of his evolving image. Photographic evidence reveals the dramatic extent of these changes, culminating in a highly refined, and arguably over-stylized, nasal appearance. Ultimately, numerous surgical interventions, including rhinoplasty, contributed to a distinct, almost otherworldly look in his later years, starkly contrasting with his earlier features.

#5 Joan Van Ark

Reports indicate she underwent treatments such as Botox, laser therapy, facelifts, brow lifts, cheek implants, and dermal fillers. The cumulative and reportedly excessive nature of these interventions has rendered her once-celebrated features nearly unrecognizable.

#6 Katie Price

Over the years, she has undergone tweakments, Botox, and reconstructive surgeries. Specific procedures include 16 breast surgeries (both augmentations and reductions), three Brazilian bum lifts, a rhinoplasty, and six facelifts.

#7 Zac Efron

Efron attributed his changed look to a nasty fall in 2013 that "shattered his jaw," though he appeared with his previous look in films for years after that incident. Hollywood plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie expressed skepticism about Efron's explanation, suggesting the dramatic transformation might be due to cosmetic surgeries and the use of muscle-building drugs.

#8 Donatella Versace

Her fuller cheeks might be the outcome of either cheek implants or dermal filler injections. There is also speculation that procedures like lip augmentation have contributed to her current look.

#9 Sharon Osbourne

She revealed that the procedure left her with uneven eyes and a misaligned mouth, stating, "That was the worst thing that I ever did. I looked like Cyclops.” Osbourne also mentioned she had to wait for the initial results to heal before undergoing corrective surgery.

#10 Madonna

Image source: Michel Dufour / Getty Image, Frazer Harrison / Getty Image Madonna, aged 65, recently confirmed she has undergone cosmetic surgery after persistent rumors, but has not specified the types or frequency of these interventions. A review of her changing appearance by board-certified surgeon Dr. Barry Weintraub led him to identify evidence of at least "twelve cosmetic facial procedures." Dr. Weintraub also suggested these procedures likely cost a sum in the "six-figure" range.

#11 Courteney Cox

Image source: Vinnie Zuffante / Getty Image, Charley Gallay / Getty Image According to dermatologist surgeon Dr. Daniel Lanzer, Courteney Cox likely had filler injected into her cheeks, lips, and around her eyes, and possibly underwent a "mini face lift." Dr. Lanzer explains that this type of facelift offers more natural results by focusing on the lower face and neck. He notes that Courteney's preference for a natural look aligns with a significant trend in cosmetic surgery where patients are seeking more subtle enhancements.

#12 Mickey Rourke

He has detailed having five operations on his nose, one on a smashed cheekbone, and cartilage taken from his ear to rebuild his nose. Despite these admissions, many experts believe Rourke has undergone additional cosmetic operations beyond those he has publicly discussed.

#13 Jocelyn Wildenstein

She continued to have more work done, later stating a motivation for some facelifts was Alec's aversion to aging, as he "hates to be with old people." Her transformed appearance earned her the public nickname "Catwoman," a label she doesn't seem to dislike, while also asserting that some of her features, like her "cat eyes — and high cheekbones," are hereditary.

#14 Tori Spelling
