Old age is an irrevocable, natural process for all of us. It’s one of life’s finite realities, no matter how much despair it brings us. While some of us are at peace with it as we await the twilight years of our lives, celebrities leave no stone unturned to fight against the tide with plastic surgery.
While money can’t beat death, it provides you with luxurious access to life-altering medical procedures. Filthy rich celebrities have the privilege to fight off the upcoming mortality in their lives, as many go under the knife to reclaim the youthful look that made them a global face. Following is a rundown of the celebrities who went the way of plastic surgery, but with catastrophic results.

Carrot Top
The American stand-up was a wild on-stage person when he came on the scene. Thanks to his signature orange hair and outrageously staged shows, he was in a league of his own. But that was the past. Since then, he seems to have undergone major physical changes. Supposedly, he has had many facial surgeries and injections. However, the eccentric comic maintains to be au natural. That could be the truth, but the face tells a different story.
Courtney Cox
‘Friends‘ and ‘Cougar Town‘ star Courtney Cox has famously spoken about how many transformative skin procedures have affected her poorly. Constantly being hounded by the press for years, she finally addressed the elephant in the room in February 2022 interview with The Sunday Times, saying, “There was a time when you go, ‘Oh, I’m changing. I’m looking older.’ And I tried to chase that [youthfulness] for years,” she said. “And I didn’t realize that, oh s–t, I’m actually looking really strange with injections and doing stuff to my face that I would never do now.”
Janis Dickinson
The title of the world’s first supermodel came with a heavy burden for Janis Dickinson. The Brooklyn-born supermodel and television presenter has been open about medical procedures, including a tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast reduction. When she received her breast cancer diagnosis, she expressed regret over how she unfairly treated her body.
Sharon Osbourne
The other half of rocker Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne, is a singular beauty. Or at least she was before the trip to the doctor. She fell prey to a botched facelift which, in her admission, made her look like “Cyclops,” shocking even the husband. In her conversation with The Sunday Time, she expressed disdain, saying, “I had a full facelift done in October, and I looked like one of those f**king mummies that they wrap [with bandages]. It hurt like hell. You have no idea.”
Carla Bruni
Another supermodel on the list got a butchered result instead of the desired one. Many have noticed a puffiness to her face, which seemed to have been missing in her youth. While it could genuinely be so many things, a doctor by the name of Ben Behnam has gone on record saying it is the lateral brow lift and cheek fillers responsible for her “stuffy” looks.
Priscilla Presley
Oh, how the mighty fall! Once considered to be one of the most beautiful women on the planet, she got spooked by the specter of aging. A Dr. Youn credits her now disfigured face due to the bang-up job of an unlicensed practitioner. Priscilla has never officially owned up to such a hypothesis, but it’s hard not to notice.

Mickey Rourke
Once a seminal figure in the film industry, Mickey Rourke has taken quite a hit to his face since then! This eccentric artist underwent a facelift that went sideways (the jokes write themselves). Despite a comeback with Darren Aronofsky’s ‘The Wrestler,’ he’s had difficulty getting back to greatness.
Donatella Versace
It makes total sense for a renowned fashionista to get a little nip and tuck for the sake of relevance, but to what end? Making another appearance on the list is Dr. Young, who, in his professional medical opinion, has categorized her pouty face as a result of multiple laser treatments.
Joan Rivers
The Queen of Late Night was a pioneer for female stand-ups. Fiery and always full of zingers, Joan would, unfortunately, be remembered for her ghastly facial transformation as she moved into aging. However, she’s been candid about it, famously remarking, “I’ve had so much plastic surgery, when I die, they will donate my body to Tupperware.”
Michael Jackson
The undisputed king of pop is no stranger to the procedures for beautification. It is believed he had a lot of work done on his nose, along with an abnormal cleft in the chin, a chin implant, and lip augmentation. But the star has denied all of it in his 1988 autobiography ‘Moonwalk,’ only admitting to having two rhinoplasties.
