Dear Life in Plastic,

You say that no man wants a woman who has let herself go, but there is a very big difference between aging naturally and taking care of yourself, and opting for plastic surgery. In fact, the vast majority of men infinitely prefer the natural look.

Honestly, I’m trying to think of anyone I know who prefers a trout pout, unnaturally filled cheekbones and a brow that is sky-high, and I can’t think of one decent man who would choose that.

I’m not anti-plastic surgery, but I am asking you to question your own sense of worth. Turning yourself into an Instagram-ready carbon copy of a million other women, is not going to make you happier.

The worst plastic surgery job ever was Priscilla Presley's.

Talking to Generic Jane ,LOL

Women want eyebrows that look like Nancy Pelosi’s.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

That's right, keep thinking that

[OpusatFR]

I see them all the time. The surgery doesn’t make you look younger. It makes you look bland. It is like those stenciled fake eyebrows that were the rage a few months ago.

I like my wrinkles. I look like me still.

Women want eyebrows that look like Nancy Pelosi’s.

Sure they do...

People don’t think about their families. What do grandchildren want to see.

My three year old on greeting my great aunt, 94 years old, ran up to her saying, you’re pretty!

No facelift. Good hair. A good outfit. Make up. Jewelry.

You want to look good, spend time at the gym or tennis court instead of the surgeon.

Too much filler is a huge mistake. Women really overdo it sometimes . It's really easy to over a period of time. It can be reversible, but it really ruins the outcomes for surgical options like a face lift down stream.

The reality is that when you get older, it's best to focus on procedures that make you look like a not gross version of your younger self.

Trying to go full Madonna or Micheal Jackson is not a recipe for success.

What about the Wildenstein woman, who wanted to look like a big cat?

Helen Hunt and Meg Ryan.

I don't know about that. Not if she was going for that 'Morticia Addams' look..................

[Red Badger]

UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!...UNSEE!..........................

[Jamestown1630]

Meg Ryan’s was tragic.

[stevio]

They look alike too. It’s like the surgeon makes them in the image of him/herself.

[jjotto]

Lot of competition for worst: Daryl Hannah, Lisa Rinna, even Nikki Cox and Joan Rivers got worse than PP to my eyes.

Not even to mention the ridiculous appearance of male celebs who degrade themselves.

[xp38]

If it becomes too obvious it likely becomes counterproductive.

[mass55th]

Nah! I'd say this one was:

Socialite and Model Jocelyn Wildenstein, aka "Cat Woman"

[mass55th]

"Helen Hunt"

Helen Hunt for sure. She looks terrible.
