Failed cosmetic surgeries: Hollywood stars who regretted their injections, cuts and fillers
They wanted to improve their image but ended up regretting the result
Fillers, botox injections, cosmetic surgeries, implants ... under the stressful world of Hollywood there are countless actors and actresses who decide to undergo interventions that do not always turn out in the best way.
Although in the case of some famous women, a small touch-up on their nose and some adjustments to their figures will rejuvenate the image on the screen, there are cases where the operations left them more sad than happy.
Some stars have spoken openly about how the pressure to always look good and young led them to make decisions that they ended up regretting.
Tara reid
It took six years for Tara Reid to wear a bikini in public again. The American Pie blonde had chosen to hide her body from the paparazzi gaze due to poor cosmetic surgery (liposuction) that left scars on her abdomen.
"My stomach became the most wavy and bulky thing," Tara told US Weekly in 2010. “She had a hernia, a big bulge next to her belly button. As a result, she was unable to wear a bikini. I lost a lot of work ”.
Reid underwent some operations to correct the previous surgery and in January 2010 she got naked in Playboy.
“I am a confident young woman ... At the end of the day, I go to sleep knowing who I am ... I am happy with my life now, and I would like to keep it this way ... The scars on my stomach are the wounds. of my battle, "he told the magazine.
The blonde also monopolized the spotlight as she passed by a red carpet where, by accident, her cleavage slipped and her chest was exposed, revealing a huge scar on her breast, although from that surgery she did not speak.
Against breast implants
It may be one of the most requested cosmetic surgeries, but there are also more and more women who have repented.
One of them was Tori Spelling. When she was in her twenties and famous in Beverly Hills 90210, the actress found it necessary to increase the size of her breasts, a decision that she would later regret.
"I had my breasts done in my early 20s and if I had known that this could have impacted my milk supply I never would have." (Tori has also modified her face over the years, but she has not spoken openly about those surgeries.)
Like her, Carmen Electra revealed that she was not so satisfied with this operation. "I had breast surgery over 10 years ago, taking me from a 32B to a DD, and it took a little getting used to," she said. “I didn't want to go as big as that. It's nice that I don't have to wear a push-up bra anymore, but it could have left me alone. I think it was fine as she was. "
“It was difficult to be active with them, because my chest always hurt. It hurt a lot and I didn't like being in pain all the time, so they had to go! ”Glee star Heather Morris stated of her implants.
Melissa Gilbert manifested herself in the same vein. “One, I don't worry about my health and two, I don't like how they look or how they feel. Frankly, I wish I could take a Zumba class without fear of ending up with two black eyes, ”she explained in a post on her blog.
Victoria Beckham also succumbed to the seduction of implants, but she ended up advising her followers. “I should probably say, don't mess with your breasts. All those years I denied it. A sign of insecurity. Celebrate what you have ”.
And Adrienne Bailon didn't feel good about her surgery, either. "Probably one of my biggest regrets," Bailon told E! in 2014 about her breast implants. “I went from being insecure about not having large breasts to now looking like a porn star. And I was like, 'Uh, this isn't great.'
Heidi montag
The member of The Hills caused a stir a decade ago when it was learned that she underwent 10 cosmetic interventions in a single day, when she was only 23 years old.
Chin reduction, brow lift, botox and breast augmentation were part of the procedures.
"Nobody ages perfectly, so I plan to continue using surgery to keep myself as perfect as I can be," Heidi told People at the time.
But a decade later his vision has changed.
"I was too young to make such a life-changing decision," she told Cosmopolitan last year. "He was under so much pressure because it was the beginning of the comment sections, negativity and hate on the internet."
“I think I looked too much in the mirror. I wish I had waited and not made a decision so young because I have long-term health complications, "he added to the post.
Also men
Although there are fewer cases of actors who have modified their appearance in an extreme way, there are some who have spoken it openly.
Mickey Rourke, the heartthrob of the 80s with nine and a half weeks, saw his face transform, although not because of a bad cosmetic surgery, but because of the box. His nose was broken twice and his cheekbone shattered were some of the effects.
In 2009 he confessed that he had had to undergo interventions. "Most of it was to fix my face mess from boxing, but I went to the wrong guy to put my face back together."
In the case of Kenny Rogers it was for an aesthetic issue and boy did he regret it.
"I wish I hadn't done it," said Rogers, who passed away in March of this year. “Looking back at some photos of myself, my eyes were much warmer than they are now, and I miss it. As you go through life, you make decisions. Some are good, others are bad. "
In the case of actor Reid Ewing, his body deformity led him to undergo several interventions.
"My appearance was the only thing that mattered to me," he wrote in 2015 in The Huffington Post. “I had just moved to Los Angeles to become an actor ... I would sit alone in my apartment and take pictures of myself from all angles, analyzing every feature. One day I decided that I had to have cosmetic surgery. "No one can be that ugly," I thought. 'It is unacceptable'".
He thus began a series of procedures that only left him pain and insecurity.
“In early 2012, all the isolation, secrecy, depression and self-hatred became unbearable. I promised that I would never have cosmetic surgery again even though I was still deeply insecure about my appearance. It took me about six months before I felt comfortable with people looking at me, ”he confessed.
Radical transformations
Melanie Griffith became addicted to surgery until she realized the gravity of the comments around her. “It hurt so much that I went to a different doctor and he started to dissolve all this shit that he had put on this other doctor. Hopefully, now I look more normal.
Something similar happened to Courteney Cox with her fillings. "One day you see pictures of yourself and you think 'Oh God, I'm horrible.' For a woman in this industry… getting old is not easy. But I learned my lesson. I've done things that I regret. Fortunately, there are things that dissolve and disappear. And that's good because this has not been my best aspect ”.
Against botox
Less drastic than surgeries, botox injections have also caused some famous regrets.
"I tried botox, unfortunately, but I got out of it and now I can finally move my face again," Nicole Kidman commented.
For Gwyneth Paltrow it was not a pleasant experience either. “I will try anything. Except botox, because I looked crazy. She looked like Joan Rivers to me! "
