The Premiere Site For Celebrity Plastic Surgery By A Real Plastic Surgeon
I'm a Michigan-based Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has been featured on Dr. 90210. The info here is my opinion alone and should not be taken as fact or as medical advice. I've not treated any of the celebrities presented here.
According to
opposingviews.com,
Cate Blanchett has stated that her husband will divorce her if she gets plastic surgery:
“I haven’t had anything done, but who knows,” she said. “Andrew said he’d divorce me if I did anything. When you’ve had children, your body changes; there’s history to it… I think it’s important not to eradicate it...I look at someone’s face and I see the work before I see the person. I personally don’t think people look better when they do it; they just look different.”It's easy for a person to say this when she's 5'8" and weighs a buck ten. I wonder if she'd feel the same if she developed a potbelly and breasts that drooped to her waist after having children? And does anybody believe her husband would truly divorce her if she had plastic surgery? If so, then he's a piece of s---!

Cate Blanchett has recently commented on her views regarding
plastic surgery on teens:
She said, "It's a big difference women in their 60s or 70s finally deciding to get their eyes done. Who knows what you're going to think? But when you've got an 18-year-old daughter who says 'Mummy can I get a boob job?' and you go 'Sure honey'.
"I mean their bodies haven't even finished evolving. The fact that you've got a magazine, you know all these magazines for teenage girls about consuming and they're so fragile. I've got sons. I don't know what I'd do if I had a daughter."
Breast augmentation in girls under 18 is a very controversial matter. I do not perform it in anyone under 18 unless they have a developmental deformity (severe asymmetry, genetic disorder, etc.). The
FDA has approved saline-filled
breast implants in women aged 18 and older, and gel implants in women aged 22 and older. Still, according to statistics by the
American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in 2005 over 3500 women aged 18 and younger had breast augmentation performed. I don't think this is a good thing.
