Doctors Comment On Megan Fox’s Evident, Worn-Off Botox
July 13, 2011 by Hollywoodite
Several doctors have commented in the same interview about how Megan Fox’s duck lips and waxen face are the work of a cat face artist and are no accident of nature. It was reported yesterday that Fox’s botox face was manipulated poorly in Photoshop to make it appear as though she’d had no work done. It was a swing and a miss; as botox would not preclude any other work, minor or major. It was such a weird supposition that “No botox = no work done” – she seemed to be screaming “I’m all natural, LOOK!” when that clearly wasn’t case.
In photos uploaded to her official page, with the caption “Things you can’t do when you have botox,” Fox frowned and squinted and tried to raise a rather stiff eyebrow. All she ended up doing was making her skin look deformed and tissue-thin as others comment on the bizarre and preternatural lines of her face.
Asked by The OC Register, four doctors in the plastic surgery and dermatology field concurred that there were shenanigans afoot.
“Looks like Megan is just as talented with Photoshop as she is in entertainment,” said plastic surgeon and blogger Dr. Nicholas Vendemia of New York. “Those lines on her forehead are totally fake. … Muscles in the forehead and brow simply don’t create curved wrinkles like that. The wrinkles Megan is showing us don’t coincide with brow anatomy, nor do they match the facial expression she is making.”
Dermatologist Dr. Vince Afsahi of Tustin and Newport Beach said, “The photo looks altered. The muscles in the forehead do not usually create an arc-like pattern seen in the photo. … Anatomically [it] does not make sense.”
Dermatologic surgeon Dr. David Sire of Fullerton said, “I have never seen the frontalis [forehead] muscle do this unless the muscle was surgically cut. It appears as if she is frowning and elevating her brow at the same time. Quite a feat!”
Plastic surgeon Dr. Val Lambros of Newport Beach said he’s undecided about whether the photos are fake, but the pattern of wrinkles… “looks odd to me” while a second one “looks bogus. Frown lines just don’t look like that and if you look at the position of the medial brows [the part closest to the nose], they do not seem to move.” – via The OC Register.
Moreover, Fox’s face probably has had extensive botox before – according to the following, speculating doctors – it just wore off in the usual and uneven manner, leaving her skin looking all jacked and selectively non-responsive to her attempts to frown. That + lazy Photoshop = $$$
Some doctors interpreted the photos as showing a Botox patient in whom the effects of the wrinkle-smoothing drug are starting to fade. “[One] photo is totally consistent with the wrinkle pattern you will see in someone whose Botox has begun wearing off,” said plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow of Newport Beach. “When you have Botox to the entire face, different parts wear off at different rates and can give you a strangish-looking pattern of wrinkles until it all wears off. I bet this photo was taken the day before her Botox appointment”
“She’s a beautiful girl and should ease up on the Botox and obvious filler she has in her lips,” Dubrow continued. “She’s starting to look a bit alien and should consider parking her spaceship for a while.”
Plastic surgeon and blogger Dr. John Di Saia of San Clemente and Orange said, “Maybe Ms. Fox has just shown us that she has not done her usual whole forehead Botox but now has scaled back to just the glabella [the area between the eyebrows]. I believe this explains the foreign appearance [the] best.”
[In the most exaggerated photo], “It looks like the Botox is wearing off but part of the effect is still in,” Di Saia said. [Another] photo of Fox frowning looks like a patient from several years ago whom Di Saia injected only between the eyebrows, he said. – via The OC Register.
