How Plastic Surgery Can Give An Older Woman The Face Of A Baby:
Another excerpt:
She looked a little like … Madonna? Strange, I know, since Madonna and my friend have little in common, at least physically. But when I saw the Big Ciccone on the cover of Vanity Fair a couple of months later, I couldn’t help but notice the similarities: the Mount Rushmore cheekbones, the angular jawline, the smoothed forehead, the plumped skin, the heartlike shape of the face. Their faces didn’t seem pulled tight in that typical face-lift way; they seemed pushed out. Looking at Madonna, I kept thinking of the British expression for reconditioning a saddle: having it "restuffed." Perhaps that’s where she got the idea to have some work done. After the hunt, Madge dismounted her trusty steed and thought, My saddle needs restuffing. And, by George, so does my face!
Another excerpt:
I decided to e-mail Liz Rosenberg, Madonna’s publicist since fuh-evah (and no relation to the doctor), to see if she would have lunch with me and talk about celebrities and plastic surgery. "Absofuckinlutely," she wrote back. "Though why you think anyone I represent has done anything to their faces is beyond me. Ha-ha. Getting any artist besides Joan Rivers and Kathy Griffin to go on record about the subject is not easy. Of course one of the great quotes came from my gal Cher, who said in an interview, 'If I want to put my tits on my back it’s my business.' Whatever Madonna has had done—and I really don’t know—she looks truly amazing."
Weird, she's sporting a female version of McCain's asymmetrical walnut-stuffed cheek.

He had a melanoma removed from his cheek, and that's residual scarring, from what I understand.

Is any of this really new? Yes, the techniques have changed over the decades, but the drive to appear as youthful/healthy/sexy as possible for as long as possible has been around forever.
The only interesting thing I find is that Botox has moved in the last decade from "slightly shameful" to "standard procedure" and is now in the same camp as teeth whitening or using tanning beds or laser eye surgery.

Psychologists and anthropologists have long tried to nail down what makes us perceive one face as beautiful and another not
a) Not looking like your forehead is stapled to your butt
b) Not having to hide from birthday party clowns for fear they might try to tie your lips into a poodle
c) Being able to produce facial expressions. Twitching doesn't count.

So many rich and well-connected people (read: celebrities) have had terrible, disfiguring plastic surgery that I have trouble seeing it as anything other than a desperate gamble for the common man. If they can't get it right, we're all in for a very bumpy ride.

I agree. But I wish people would understand that there is nothing wrong with a few signs of age, in fact I find some people get quite a bit more attractive once they get some wrinkles. It helps to distinguish them from the legions of smooth faced children that are constantly presented as the standard of good looks.

That's my reaction, too.
I don't tend to meet many people with visible plastic surgery in real life (either the people I meet aren't getting it, or they are having good enough work done that it is invisible to the uneducated eye). But this summer there I keep meeting middle-aged couples where the wife has had big implants and sometimes visible work on her face; the guy is almost always a schlub (but sometimes has had hair work). I wish I was a photographer and could take portraits of each of these couples — they are really interesting to look at.
Was this recent article about bridezillas making their bridesmaids get plastic surgery the subject of a FPP?

that very invasive plastic surgery such as the classic face lift has been unpopular among those who can afford the much more expensive newer procedures is not really news, this has been going on for years -- most celebrities choose better, the Meg Ryan lips are just an aberration for people as rich as she is.
cutting up someone's face and stitching it back into shape is something Jane Sixpack does on Dr- 90210 on some TV channel's dime because she cannot afford it -- richer, more visible women wouldn't get caught dead doing that shit. Angelina Jolie -- who's, interestingly, 33, is the perfect example of subtle, good, more advanced plastic surgery. The Grey's Anatomy guy, too.

(interestingly, a big motivating factor for the shift was that actresses and acotrs and politicians and other people heavily exposed in the media couldn't afford looking simply tight-as-drums, like the old Joker character on the TV show, and losing movement in their face -- they needed stuff that was subtler, but they still needed to look younger and fresher. hence, demand in the right quarters created a new wave in plastic surgery. if they can afford it, go nuts. Maybe, just maybe, this will mean that fine actresses won't lose their leading lady status as soon as they turn 35

Some people age and it is beautiful. Others require help. The difficulty lies in understanding which is which. This is compounded by people who make profits from convincing others that they would benefit from 'treatment'.
I happened to hear or read recently that I could actually massage improvements into my ageing face. The amazing thing is, it worked, and it worked quickly. I was developing some serious creases in that line that goes down from the nose to either side of the mouth. They are much less pronounced now.
I'll admit, I am vane enough that I have stood before the mirror and pulled my face about, considering the nature of the age lines. It is quite easy to see that a little more youthful an appearance could be gained by a little pull here and there. If I had the physique to match, I might even consider it! LOL. Somehow though, I manage, at least from the armpits up, to still look better than I did at 17. (well, truth is, most men do that, anyway).
One really can't condemn celebrity women for seeking the aid of the surgeon. They do have professional pressures that simply don't apply to ordinary folks. Perhaps it is the tastes of the casting people, or possibly that of the masses, that has to be called into question.
At the same time, I certainly enjoy the catty remarks generated by any discussion of cosmetic plastic surgery related to aging. It is as if younger people somehow feel threatened by an older woman's (and it's almost always women) vanity.
Meow on.

No. The asymmetry and disfigurement predate that.
McCain not only was injured in a fire on the deck of the carrier USS Forrestal and then, after getting severely injured crashing his Skyhawk, had his face bashed in repeatedly in a North Vietnamese prison. Not to mention the six years toll malnutrition took on his body.
So making fun of his looks is even more fucked in the head.
But I got no problem making fun of the looks of people that are vain enough to think they can halt the natural marks of time with countless and expensive voluntary surgeries and end then up looking like the the Crypt Keeper with a white trash bag pulled taught over their face. Fuck these people.

This is all so uninteresting and focuses on keeping attractive people attractive. I find the whole article slightly condescending, along with the idea that plastic surgery is exclusively for the buff bods and rich of West Hollywood or Upper West Side. Well this is NYMag so I'm not surprised in the least, but I really don't care that Angelina Jolie is able to get more money, for long, because she's constantly 23.
Making a 9 stay a 9 is uninteresting. Give me a guy who is a 4 and turn him into a decent 7. I always had the feeling that attractiveness was sort of like wealth, a lot of people on the high end get a lot, while the rest of us kind of grope around on the floor.
I mean you'll get a ton of people calling Thom Yorke hot, but let's be honest, it'd be so much easier to run around with our shirts off looking like Matthew Mcconaughey. Push yourselves harder plastic surgeons!

jonmc I don't understand our society's fear of aging.
Because age is accumulated damage. Living for a longer period of time is great. Learning new things, having new experiences, all great. Gradually rotting from the innards out, accumulating plaques in the brain, cancers on the skin, senses failing, sense of reality failing, looking down at one's hands and they're different than how they should be, looking in the mirror and seeing a face less and less and less one's own ... I'll pass on that, if possible.
Surgical procedures such as those described are nothing more than a coat of paint over rotten wood. This will do nothing to hold back aging, it will only make the subject fall into the uncanny valley. True rejuvenation isn't here yet; if it ever does happen, it will be more akin to regeneration. Growing back all those damaged parts, at a sub-microscopic level - and not stimulating cancers in the process. Early "rejuvenation" might amount to skin abrasion and regrowing in an electrified bath of chemicals (like a Bacta tank); whether this can be done to vital organs is questionable, and even if that works, applying it to the brain is a different question again.
