As a woman, I know how much we all want to look young and beautiful. As a result, we will try to hold on to our youth as long as possible. However, at some point I think we should all be grateful and just grow old gracefully and not trying so hard to the point we don't look natural anymore.
There's no such thing as aging gracefully. That's just a statement people make for meaning "not having work done." In show business, it can mean losing jobs, lost income, no product endorsement gigs, etc. It's their business to look a certain way. The entertainment business isn't about looking like you and I do. Altho if you're a superstar who has aged, there are some good roles for you, even written for you, so you don't want to, or have to, look younger, once you're passed the age at getting younger roles. Like Meryl Streep. Even then, tho, they likely have procedures done to look the best version of themselves. Joan Rivers said anyone in the film business over the age of 25 has had work done. ("work" doesn't necessarily mean surgery) Look at Dolly Parton, who has had so much "work" (incl surgery) done, that the procedures probably can't be counter. She would not have become the superstar legend she is without it. No doubt about it. Starting w/her chest.
That's probably true, but these "superstars" are in a completely different category. They are constantly on stage, in the public eye, and have the money for the surgeries. I just have a feeling their "psyche" must be completely different.
It's all comes down to choices. People have plastic surgery not because they have to, but they want to. Hollywood have many famous people that are still themselves. Still famous, still have many movies.... their roles adjuste according to their age. For example, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Rachel Weisz, Salma Hayek, Brooke Shields, Julianne Moore, Isabella Rossellini, Sigourney Weaver, Dame Judi Dench, just to name a few. Therefore, everything we do or not do is all choices. I'm not against or encourage plastic surgery. Some people may feel pressure and think they have to get plastic surgery done in order to maintain their popularity. But the truth is, it's all in their head.
The last picture shows that she has reached the point where no matter what she does, she still looks her age. The neck doesn't lie and if she still insists on looking 30, she'll need more than just a few needles here and there. It might result in her looking like Jocelyn "Catwoman" Wildenstein if she's not careful. I sympathize with her cause as someone who's had many plastic surgeries, I know how addictive it can be. It's hard to stop if you have millions in the bank, it's not like she has to do some savings for her next procedure.
I just watched The Northman and came here to find out what happened. I couldn't believe what her face looked like in some scenes, especially the ones lit by candlelight. It's not that she's aging - we're all used to seeing aging faces and it doesn't feel weird. It's that strange Uncanny Valley that excessive plastic surgery puts people in, like a clone. It's affecting their acting abilities too because the expressions feel so unnatural.
We don't need to tiptoe around the fact that she looks nothing like she did when she was younger and no, it's not because of the aging process. It's because of excess plastic surgery, botox, fillers and teeth veneers. She looks like different person now. No, I am not being mean. If this is what the celebrities want to do to themselves, then they should expect the negative reactions from the public. We are the ones who pay to see their movies over the years and if we saw them looking a certain way and now they look like a completely different person, then of course we are shocked.
Si no se hubiera hecho nada en el rostro estuvier envejecido de manera" natural" pero aceptómolo, tampoco nos hubiera gustado, entonces... Porq no dejarle hacer a su rostro los cambios q requiere , si igual va a envejecer?
@@yadaos7470 Your statement of "we wouldn't have liked it either" meaning (the naturally aging face) is only a sad result of social conditioning. Societal brainwashing. Indoctrination of the masses to implant this idea that any signs of aging make someone "unnattractive" and therefore, must be abolished. I reject this social conditioning. I don't buy into it. Never have. I'm certain that if Nicole Kidman had simply left her face alone (like so many beautiful women of our past times did) she would look so much more beautiful than she does now. Of course women can "do what they want". We all know this. It's a personal choice. Yet, we need to consider just how much our personal choices (as women) are influenced by this societal pressure of "wrinkles are ugly". Wrinkles are not ugly. A woman can have a face full of wrinkles and still be beautiful. Yet a woman with a face full of botox and fillers is honestly not beautiful at all. We need to pull our heads out of the sand and see the reality. There is nothing attractive at all about this new "look" that altered women have in these current times. It's just that it's been "normalized" and we have come to accept this look as the new standard. A natural face is always going to be more beautiful. Hands down.
I totally agree. If she had aged naturally, she probably wouldn't be getting many if any roles. Society, and especially Hollywood, wantswomen to be frozen in time. We don't like looking at what real aging looks like.
I think plastic surgery can become an addiction for some people. It doesn't help that our society is so obsessed with perfection and what many people forget is that perfection is an illusion.
For me the only reason it was obvious she had a facelift recently was how wide and stretched the corners of her lips are now, reaching out towards the sides of her face. I've heard people calling this 'puppet mouth'. Just so surprised you didn't mention it. I noticed the same thing on Kristin Davis (Charlotte from Sex & the City). It just looks so obvious and distracting I can't take it seriously. I hope you don't do this to people in your practice
Yes, it's true. I was absolutely horrified when I saw Kristin Davis in the latest SITC film, that description of 'puppet mouth' that you mention is spot on. She didn't look like herself at all, and I was very sad to the very lovely and so talented Nicole Kidman get that look as well.
In a previous video, the Doctor referred to this "feature" as sometimes called "The Joker's Mouth/Smile" and a sign of multiple facelifts ( obviously worsening with each procedure).
She got a new lease on life and looks.....cycle number two coming up......boob lift......next, probably did that a long time ago. She went through one pregnancy so tummy tuck and maybe butt tuck ? it is not just the face that gets improved....the rest of the body follows. It is all under the microscope. I wonder how they manage not ending up with addictions to pain pills. These procedures have to be painful.....Ouch !!!!! the vanity makes it all bearable.
@@MinFidler She's one where it didn't turn out well. She was so beautiful before. She still looks good, but she lost her beautiful special look. Not sure what she had done. But as long as she's happy with it....
Yess...I'm so sad about! She was such a beautiful "Redhead" as She start her Cariere, but first Hollywood doesn't like her original Hair-Color.. So She became "blond" - as all Actresses...blond, blond, blond...always the same boring colored blond... I know why, because I'm a very "lightful" Redhead, too! And I was treated really bad ...because our Haircolor has a stupid "sexuell" Image.. But I never change my Haircolor - I fight for all People/esp.Women with Red Hair! But also I'm not an Actor, my Job has nothing to do with Movies a.s.o.! And I'm happy about! 😍🤗😒
It's so sad to see someone so beautiful get destroyed by poorly done surgeries, all because women can't have a career in Hollywood without looking constantly youthful and "filtered." It's even more depressing because these things also destroy young girls' ideas of themselves, making them think everyone else looks airbrushed naturally and they're the only ones who look "flawed" (aka human).
makes me feel better about not being able to afford any cosmetic inhancement surgeries, seeing beautiful people end up so awful looking. id be so mad if i got something done and it made me uglier😢😅
Nah, it's not poorly done surgeries, but overdone surgeries. At some point you need to stop and understand that you're old and need to just age like a normal person instead of tripling down.
I think some of these women internalize standards of beauty that aren't real. There are plenty of women who age gracefully and are attractive or even hot past 50. I think there's a culture of fear in Hollywood that leads these actresses to get work done way past the point where it makes sense or makes them look better than they otherwise would. It comes down to a lot of these women internalizing a self image that is unrealistic.
He did mention filler. He talked about lip filler and then said she started getting a lot of cheek filler in 2010. He's right. It wasn't excessive before that time.
These cheeks are what appear so fake. Her ex husband just showed up with puffy cheeks so he got the special treatment....Has to look young, again, a requirement in his business. Funny, really, these insecurities......
I have quite hooded eyes already at 30. I really like seeing other people who have/ had hooded eyes around my age. I find that seeing the beauty in others with hooded eyes helps to remind me that I'm beautiful, too.
Hooded eyes are beautiful. They convey a sultry mystery. I'm so bored of seeing the typical Instagram-type eyes, where the entire eyelid is fully visible and contoured around the eye socket, with a large space between the eyelid crease and the eyebrow. Yawn. Boring.
Have to disagree with you here doc.. Watch Dead calm and you will see her nose was very upturned, eyes very hooded and she was covered in freckles. She started her surgeries right after that.
I don't know how articles and videos about her face changes always ignore this. I'm surprised he missed that nose job and tons of filler. Her sister has the same upturned nose she used to have. Her skin isn't all natural as freckles were removed. Not farfetched to assume she had other skin resurfacing procedures done too. Her cheeks were full early on but not high cheekbones or else she wouldn't keep putting these fillers that give her that stretched cat look.
I'm Australian. I remember seeing Nicole in the 80's in BMX Bandits. She was an unknown actress, very skinny, with curly red hair and a traditional Aussie accent. Today, she is miles away from her humble beginnings and has crafted her accent to sound cultured.
@@nan7503 People always want the kind of hair they don't have. I have straight hair and would love curls. My curly haired sister wanted straight hair. I noticed that Kidman usu. straightens her curly hair. I love her in both. She's also an awesome actress. One of the best.
Thank you for putting this channel out there! I truly enjoy being educated about facial plastic surgeries! I managed ophthalmology practices general and then pediatric for 16+ years. I then “graduated” to general & vascular surgery and also was certified as a tech with both specialties. I found them to be fascinating, but secretly always wished that I had worked for a cosmetic surgeon! You fill that void because I’m a sponge for knowledge so much that I’m going for my master’s in psychology at 66 yrs young. Thank you for your channel and your awesome content! I love your gray matter! Keep up the awesome work! 🤗🙌👏👏👏👏😁
I'm not a medical professional, so I rarely can spot a particular procedure, but a surgically altered face often just 'reads wrong' to me. In "It's Complicated," Steve Martin looked like someone had put his face in a microwave and melted it down into an expressionless mask; fillers, probably. But I digress. In the last thing I saw Nicole Kidman in, The Undoing (2020), she looked all kinds of wrong, and was hard to watch. Lip filler up to Jesus, and I thought maybe a chin implant, as her jaw line was so unnatural. I watch a lot of Korean dramas these days, and Seoul is arguably a plastic surgery mecca. It's becoming increasingly difficult for me to watch people who have had a lot of surgery. My esthetic is: "I'd rather look like I needed it, then look like I had it."
I totally agree. Watching Nicole's recent movies and TV shows, it's always been hard for me to not focus on her facial features and wonder what she'd had done because the changes are so blatant. Having said that, I think she's a phenomenal actress (The Undoing was crap though lol) and an exceptional beauty. Aging for an A-list actress of her generation must be super difficult so I hope she takes it easy and doesn't go overboard.
I just wish she kept more ginger tone in her hair, It really does compliment her complexion beautifully, I feel that the blonde tends to wash out her beauty
Maybe. However, she still looks lovely. She’s in her mid-fifties. She would also be “almost unrecognizable “ if she had never done anything along the way. I feel like people judge some cosmetic procedures with unrealistic expectations. it would be nice if all procedures could just magically make you look the same as you did 10-15 years ago but more often the procedures do make you look younger or fresher but not exactly like you looked in the past. It’s so much more noticeable on celebs unfortunately.
Learning how to wear make up as you get older makes a huge difference. Too much dark eyeliner on the lower lid makes you look hard and draws the eyes down. Also, matching concealer helps. Drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated.
If you feel bad about yourself, a shrink is what you need and not a plastic surgeon. Self esteem is not what is offered with these surgeries, but a look in the mirror you may enjoy. No plastic surgeon can give you self esteem and they avoid people who have that problem . They are never happy......
I remember a famous model /tv host about 20 years ago, on tv telling people on a show that Nicole has extremely short hair and uses wigs. She was showed a room of all these wigs that she used.
I think she started using a little filler by the late 90s. Her top lip was naturally very thin and much thinner than her lower lip. By this time they start to appear more even in proportion. It seems obvious she had a facelift by the time she filmed The Undoing. There were a lot of close ups and her skin is amazing but not normal for someone of her age. You knew something was different but it was hard to tell what. A lot of people commented on it at the time. In the episode of 9 Perfect Strangers in that scene where she's sitting on the cliff with Melissa McCarthy, the wind blows her hair off her face and you get a good look at her jawline tragus/ lobes, It looks totally unnatural and very obvious she's had a full facelift.
Yes she had a very top lip and what happened to all her freckles, even then she never had lovely smooth skin now even her nose looks finer, being Australian myself I saw her in the early stages of her career. She probably has abrasion to her skin and plenty of botox and fillers. Don't want to sound horrible but being in the fame game she would have had to..
@@cherrylleallan6366 My older sister NOW has very smooth, porcelain skin. And where did her freckles go? (I hadn't seen her in years) TOTALLY different skin...dermabrasion.
The trouble with plastic surgery is that every single person who thinks they are going to stay young looking instead they all look exactly like Jack Nicholson as the Joker!!!!
Look at Goldie Hawn; she never was beautiful but she was sooo cute. After she had her face all chopped up she is simply horrific looking. Same goes for Meg Ryan; what a living doll she was until she chopped up her face then ran into hiding.
@@judegirl7607 I think Meg Ryan looks good. The doctor(s) obviously made mistakes w/Goldie Hawn. That's the danger of surgery. At least fillers fade away. Surgery doesn't. I'm sure Hawn was pretty upset at the results. Could be she had corrective surgery that made it worse, even. There's something wrong w/one of her eyes, I think I noticed. Her eyes were her trademark. Looks like her surgeon screwed up. So sad. But at least she's married to someone who loves her for who she is. She's also gained weight, which I never thought she would because she was naturally so thin. Kirk's gained a lot of weight himself! Meh...they're immensely wealthy, have had superstar careers, so I guess it doesn't matter. They can do what they want, go skiing, travel, and not worry about what they look like any more.
They don’t look good. All I see is a face full of plastic and injections that looks totally unnatural. I don’t think “Oh, she looks beautiful “. I think “WOW, look at all the surgery she’s had done!.”
I always considered NIcole Kidman a beautiful woman and a great actress. The loss of expression in her face because of Botox, fillers, etc, makes her unwatchable now.
I can’t watch her anymore either. Even in her more recent miniseries Nicole’s face won’t move. She compensates with flashing eyes and vocal drama. But her face, an actor’s primary tool, has become a frozen mask. Sad that women are pressured to do this kind of self-mutilation in order to have a career. The exception has been Meryl Streep, whose work has been done with a very light hand. Meryl still has all her acting tools.
I agree. I saw her on (I think it was) Graham Norton and when she laughed not a muscle or anything moved in her facial expression. So sad that she feels the need to do this.
She is not aging well. I saw her in The Undoing and wondered what had happened to her face. She is not looking younger, she just looks like she had work done.
I wonder if you'd think the same if your face was in closeup on a 20 foot screen, with people on the internet talking about how old and haggard you look, and why didn't they hire someone younger for that role.
@@donnab8345 Yeah, I actually would because I’m in a similar situation. My husband is a physician whose practice includes offering fillers and Botox. Practically everyone in the whole county comes to him because he has such a good reputation for not over filling and for making people look as natural as possible. I’m constantly under people’s eye and though my husband has never pressured me, I do feel the pressure to look youthful because of how other women act. Still, I’m not doing it, especially seeing how Nicole has turned out. She has access to the best surgeons in the business and she still didn’t know when to stop. Chasing youth is a race no one will win. I’m not getting caught in that trap. I’d rather look in the mirror and see wrinkles than look like an alien and all of them that chase youth end up looking like an alien. You can’t have it both ways.
I'm surprised you haven't pointed out her bad face-lift that pulled her mouth open horizontally - look at her new show Nine Perfect Strangers. It looks like they just pulled her face towards ears and stapled it. And yes, terrifying chin fillers in Undoing era, the chin gained like 2 fingers in height over years 🙁
Yeah you get a really good look at it in that scene where she's sitting on the cliff with Melissa McCarthy, the wind blows her hair off her face and you see her jawline and tragus/lobes, It looks totally unnatural and very obvious she's had a full facelift. I did a rewind a few times just to look closer, It was freaky
What a soft ball take on Nicole Kidman's plastic surgeries.I couldn't stop looking at her in Nine Perfect Strangers and the new film The Northman movie was just the same.
@@PrecociousFriand I mean extensive surgery isn't bad, what I can't wrap my mind around is her choice of surgeons. She could literally go to anyone, pay 150k if necessary...
Not something to laugh at considering you are not a nanometer to her natural beauty even before those enhancements. Lucky you, you don’t have to exert effort looking good because you simply have to lie down stiff under a rock. Hahaha
My intentions are to be respectful with what I'm about to say, but I wouldn't have casted her in "The Northman" (2022). Reason being that the film obviously takes place in a time period where plastic surgery doesn't exist and it lowkey stuck out to me the entire film, especially in the scene where her face is being illuminated by fire during the night.
Then a lot of people couldn't be cast in that film 😂😂😂😂 People get cast because of their acting skills and sometimes because of their looks. Funny thing, i had no problem ignoring her face issues and paying attention to the movie
it was the series 'the undoing' that was most disturbing, I enjoyed watching the plot unfold but was constantly reminded of what a mess Kidman's face has become, she looked like Jack Nicolson's riddler in the older batman movies.
Let’s add this: Nicole is a phenomenal actress, and since I had the chance to meet her a few years ago back in London, I can tell you that in person she looks like a legit goddess 😍
I thought it was unfortunate how stiff her face looked when she won the Oscar in 2003, I feel like you'd want to be able to make full expression when life-changing moments are occurring
Yes, I remembered when she won her Oscar in 2003. To me she looked terrible! Her hair style was also awful! It was tightly pulled back with that huge forehead that happens with alot of actresses with all the hair color and styles! The last time I tuned in to see her was that HBO series, can't remember the name. She was wearing a red wig with bangs. Not her best look, but it was a series after all. I do hope she stops the surgery. After a certain age so many women by their 50's cannot continue....
Great video but I always have to chuckle when in the middle of your videos a taped version of you pops up to remind people to subscribe. Just right smack in the middle of your commentary! The timing is hilarious. Haha :)
The surgeon doesn’t even acknowledge the drastic change of Nicole Kidman‘s mouth. When she first came on the scene, she showed a lot of gum when she smiled and had a turned up nose. Over the years the gummy smile disappeared and her nose and upper lip became much closer. How is this achieved?
I think it's called a gingivectomy (the gingiva is the tissue above the teeth). Possibly the muscle in the upper lip area is severed, released or something (I'm not a doctor!).
The photo in 2022 at the end of the clip, her ears look very large. I dont think they were before all these treatments she has had. Now she will have wear her hair to disguise the size of them. Where does this all stop. She is going to look odder if she keeps doing this stuff. Look what happened to Joan Rivers after to maany surgeries.
You forgot to mention the veneers on her teeth. The difference between her natural, slightly receding teeth in 2008 (which I think are very attractive) and the straight white teeth she sports by 2010 is marked.
Exactly what I was here to say. Her smile was so natural and charming early on, but later she just ended up with giant, generic chicklet teeth like everyone else in Hollywood. And her face is so frozen and lumpy with filler tha I had actually forgotten what she looked like in the early days!
Cosmetic teeth !!!! Seems like all entertainers are wearing dental implants. The perfections of these teeth is mind boggling. Better than rotten teeth !
She also had that surgery where they cut up inside your mouth so that when you smile you don't see too much gums anymore. That's something that veneers and lip filler cannot cover 100%.
surprised you did not mention the definite chin implant, visible in all her recent work. and even a possible jaw implant. to me the entire lower part of her face looks very stretched but also bigger, which leads me to believe she got a facelift and chin/jaw implants. why they would do that to her is beyond me. the chin looks very pointy and unnatural and she had great bone structure already. totally unnecessary and strange.
If you watched the video the doctor explains that she has always had an exaggerated jawline, and shows that in her earliest photos. I find it hard to believe she would have had a jaw implant to exaggerate it even further. It's possible that as she's aging the jaw structure is changing.
I've NEVER seen a picture of the young Nicole. The way she used to look took me by surprise tbh. I'm not hating on her or anything, it's just something I noticed: from around 26 on she started to look older than she actually was. I know this struggle and that's why I understand her obsession with plastic procedures. I wished she had a better doc though. It got out of control very quickly.
@@drgarylinkov The actress who played the wife of Tim Allen on 'Home Improvement' was brutally honest about what all she had done to her face and body. I believe she called out a bunch of other celebrities for their plastic surgeries that they never owned up to. I don't remember if she gave prices though. This was all before social media. That Heidi chick from 'The Hills' and Donna D'Errico of 'Baywatch' fame, have also been very honest about what all they've had done. Donna looks the most incredible of all celebrities who've had as much done as she has had. She looks very natural AND young, when she's in her 50s!!!
I'm not seeing how she was a great beauty. She looked extremely plain when younger. She got nicer looking around 2000. But still I'm confused with her looks. Her acting, though, is outstanding! She didn't break into Hollywood off her looks.
Cherbear59~~Me too~~I really think we should all grow old gracefully~~Jennifer Lopez was always gorgeous~~What I don't understand is why she had so much done and then to lie about the fact she's had nothing done~~So sad~~Gwen Stefani went to far with all she had done~~I mean those lips of hers are ridiculous~~She was always beautiful~~I dunno~~Their all nuts~~lol~~
Nicole is incredibly beautiful but, more important, she is a brilliant, gifted actor. Although she is certainly famous, she is underrated for her incredible acting ability.
QUESTION: Getting, what seems to me, a lot of work at younger ages, wouldn't that change the way you age and perhaps even cause the need for even more surgery?
Definitely. That's why 50 year old actresses now look weird from too much cosmetic work. Decades ago, around 40 was when they got their first facelift and work.
@@nicolecarter1072 Seems like it would considering the skin will sag regardless of the lift but when it does, , how much skin is there to continue to stretch over time, seems like one would look as if they couldn't talk anymore.
Nicole Kidman looked so much better with her curly red hair then she does with that awful blonde color. She was stunning back then. Now she looks like every other actress in hollywood.
I've followed her changes over the years. I thought she was her most beautiful in her 30s but after her face had thinned out some. As someone that had a full face in my teens and 20s, I preferred losing some of that. I've always found her to be beautiful. I saw some people saying they had never had skin problems such as acne. Others said they have never had a single anti-aging procedure done and get constant compliments on how young they look. To all of you, I say that that is great, but that doesn't necessarily mean you deserve a pat on the back for your good work. Genetics, environment and health issues (or lack thereof) may have had a part in that. Heck, dumb luck could too. NK changed her appearance because she wanted to and if it made her feel more beautiful, then that's great. For most of her life (minus the excess botox for a little while there), she hasn't made extreme changes (until the most recent ones). I can't imagine the pressures she faces as an actress in her 50s. Kudos to her for taking pride in her appearance no matter what she does.
I think you approach it from an angle that doesn't take into account the fact that those pressures are unethical. Bending to the pressures to the point that you get stuck under the knife is not positive. It is not a failure of morality, but it is not a cause for celebration, either. It is a cause for awareness. Celebrities affect culture when they do things like this, and it doesn't affect society in a positive way.
What pressure is she feeling exactly? She has made it to the top, has more money than she needs, and a successful career behind her. She is no longer in her prime. She should be happy and content and accepting of her age. "Pressure" is a thing she should not be feeling, if she's healthy and happy. It's a bit greedy to expect to continue being a world famous beauty and a top movie star in the same way you were in your 20s and 30s.
@@dailybls I totally agree with you and look at these wonderful people like Sophia Loren ... she aged naturally . People like Kidman lie about it tell us they haven't had any work done and you know it's almost like they do that on purpose to make everybody else feel like crap ... think about it . Easier to have more respect for people like Joan Rivers who admit they have a lot of work done and aren't phony about it
I really wish she would have allowed herself to age naturally. I just saw her in the Northman movie and could not believe that was her. It looked like someone else wearing a Nicole Kidman mask. It freaked me out to look at her. Oh well we all do what we want with our faces I suppose.
I've noticed that she started looking a bit strange and lost some of her extraordinary youthful beauty (but more than just aging), although she's still beautiful! It's okay to have a few wrinkles in the forehead and for your eyes to be expressive. But when your face is on a 20-foot screen in high definition color, I guess I'd freak out over a few wrinkles and sags, too. She's still beautiful and an extraordinary talent. And seems such a lovely, sweet person.
I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW STUNNING AND BEAUTIFUL SHE LOOKS! That's my first time seeing a younger picture of her. Her weight loss at 19 is the Nicole Kidman we all know.
I had hair like that in the 70s. It was called "an Afro" and was all the rage for the times - no racism implied. Then I simply stopped perming my hair to get that style, and became straight haired once again.
I am reminded of Madonna in the May 2022 picture. I wonder if they share the same surgeon? No body shaming implied. They both work in fields where - with respect to plastic surgery - you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
She had a lot of freckles that she has erased , also her skin is very thin that is why she has had that many facelifts and fillers, she is gorgeous but I don't wish her skin at all.
Aw Nicole so beautiful you don’t need all these surgeries honey! How is your soul doing? You must feed the inside and be happy from within and that youthfulness will shine through. Sad almost no one wants to do this and that we all tend to judge each other by appearances only. Sad!
I think these videos are fascinating and appreciate the expert knowledge Dr. Linkov shares. I naively thought these actors were just gifted with perfect features but clearly many of them made changes at the start of their careers. Whatever the case, I feel sorry for those with long careers who endure such pain to remain relevant in Hollywood only to resemble mannequins in the end.
She also had obviously weird chin fillers during Pretty Little Liars. She looked gorgeous I think in season 1 but in Season 2 her chin filler was very distinct.
@@ReaghanReilly Thats right, my bad. I saw both and I think both have Reese Witherspoon in them? I may also be wrong. I watch a lot of movies, and series. They all blend together at some point.
Dr. Linkov, as you know, I love your content to the point I smile when I see you've posted a new video. I love learning about all things plastic surgery related. That Hello Fresh add tho! 😍 Your wife is awesome! She keeps her world class surgeon at home, barefoot, wearing scrubs, in the kitchen cooking those tasty meals. 😆 That was adorable.
Im glad you're talking about her the last couple things I've seen her in I could tell she looked different & wondered what procedures shes done here lately. Still a beautiful talented women!
I remember her playing some doctor, brain surgeon character in 'Days of Thunder' with Tom Cruise. But the age she was at the time she would have just been graduating college. There's no way she would have gone through medical school and residency to be his doctor at that young of an age unless her character was like Doogie Howser, M,D.. So, obviously she was playing an older character when she was still very young.
I find her almost unrecognizable now . I think she had chin surgery. It looks much thinner than when she was young. Her eyes are less rounded and stretched outwards. Her hair has gone from red to I don' t know how to qualify the color. I think she had freckles as well young but her skin now looks uniformily pale white all over.
Nice video, well explained, thank you. Just one comment, also applicable to other videos: once Nicole started botox, it is obvious that she kept using it regularly, while it is only mentionned once in the video.
I’ve always found her beautiful and even more important, she’s very talented. It’s her forehead that got many of us talking some years ago. I am her age, and while it’s not easy going from a young face to an old one , I think when we do too much we not only no longer look like ourselves , but often quite odd. I get a tiny bit of Botox and filler in my lips due to very thin lips. Otherwise , micro needling. I prefer pretty natural with a tweak. Nicole still looks great but she for sure has had some major work done.
The main reason she looks different is that as she ages like everyone does , the shape of her faces changes , No 55 year old can look exactly the same as they did in their 20's. Females with fine bone structure and fair skin can start to show their age more as they get older because the sun can damage the skin and the loss of the natural fat from the skin due to aging can show a face that looks aged and tired looking . A lot of film stars , would not be able to be recognize if they had no plastic surgery procedures because they would look just as aged as average people you see shopping in the local supermarket who look their age or who look older than their real age
@@philipmullins6235 Agree...But too much filler looks so unnatural...Nicole is just beautiful...I think Salma Hayek had great work done and looks stunning...
No god...no say it ain't so... She was beautiful... Her in moulin rouge still makes me cry to this day she deserved a Oscar for that movie she was so stunning... Why do these beautiful people not just let themselves age natural like regardless of surgery you will age and most surgeries don't age well.
@@afinnimore1 there are a few pics online where you can see the pulling on the sides of her face, just look up before and after. I understand why women do it, but wish they didn't. I believe Andie Macdowell and Cameron Diaz both have avoided work (and both have lovely wrinkles!). There are a few more actresses who've avoided it and it's pretty obvious once you compare anyone of the same age to say Nicole here, to them and what most 50 something's look like! Personally I prefer Nicole's untouched face best, but I like variety and find the homogenisation of faces that's happening with more extreme surgery really dull!
@@ArtByEmilyHare oh that's a shame if she's had something done, hope the doctor will review sometime. I still think of Cameron as being quite young and yes looking natural apart from a little filler I think? Andie looks great.
before than watching the new video hello dr linkov after a very long time , I'm sure is an amazing video as always , and I couldn't watch the entire hair Tx video while you were doing but I could watch some of that I just wanna say that was an amazing experience and I love how you did the interaction and all the explanations etc etc etc , and I loved the quality of the video and quality if the great job, I assume that was the new 100K surgery-specific camera that you were talking about like before the christmass that was an amazing exp and bytheway you are glowing positivity dr :))
Dr Gary, is it possible to find a celebrity actress who in large part has aged with minimal plastic surgery? It would be really interesting to see the contrast between almost normal aging and Melanie Griffon for example. Has Sally Field done a lot?
Melissa Gilbert supposedly hasn’t done a lot. She admitted she started then basically said, nope. No more. Shelly Long doesn’t seem to have done a thing. Candace Cameron Bere. Is that her last name? What has she done? Jamie Lee Curtis is suppose to be natural. Or, Julia Roberts.
I wish celebs would just age gracefully instead of all this face altering surgeries to keep them young or to make them look younger then what they really are. Great video thanks for your teaching us about these procedures.
As a woman, I know how much we all want to look young and beautiful. As a result, we will try to hold on to our youth as long as possible. However, at some point I think we should all be grateful and just grow old gracefully and not trying so hard to the point we don't look natural anymore.
There's no such thing as aging gracefully. That's just a statement people make for meaning "not having work done." In show business, it can mean losing jobs, lost income, no product endorsement gigs, etc. It's their business to look a certain way. The entertainment business isn't about looking like you and I do. Altho if you're a superstar who has aged, there are some good roles for you, even written for you, so you don't want to, or have to, look younger, once you're passed the age at getting younger roles. Like Meryl Streep. Even then, tho, they likely have procedures done to look the best version of themselves. Joan Rivers said anyone in the film business over the age of 25 has had work done. ("work" doesn't necessarily mean surgery) Look at Dolly Parton, who has had so much "work" (incl surgery) done, that the procedures probably can't be counter. She would not have become the superstar legend she is without it. No doubt about it. Starting w/her chest.
That's probably true, but these "superstars" are in a completely different category. They are constantly on stage, in the public eye, and have the money for the surgeries. I just have a feeling their "psyche" must be completely different.
It's all comes down to choices. People have plastic surgery not because they have to, but they want to. Hollywood have many famous people that are still themselves. Still famous, still have many movies.... their roles adjuste according to their age. For example,
Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Rachel Weisz, Salma Hayek, Brooke Shields, Julianne Moore, Isabella Rossellini, Sigourney Weaver, Dame Judi Dench, just to name a few.
Therefore, everything we do or not do is all choices. I'm not against or encourage plastic surgery. Some people may feel pressure and think they have to get plastic surgery done in order to maintain their popularity. But the truth is, it's all in their head.
The last picture shows that she has reached the point where no matter what she does, she still looks her age. The neck doesn't lie and if she still insists on looking 30, she'll need more than just a few needles here and there. It might result in her looking like Jocelyn "Catwoman" Wildenstein if she's not careful. I sympathize with her cause as someone who's had many plastic surgeries, I know how addictive it can be. It's hard to stop if you have millions in the bank, it's not like she has to do some savings for her next procedure.
@@colorsconnected You’ve got to be kidding!
I just watched The Northman and came here to find out what happened. I couldn't believe what her face looked like in some scenes, especially the ones lit by candlelight. It's not that she's aging - we're all used to seeing aging faces and it doesn't feel weird. It's that strange Uncanny Valley that excessive plastic surgery puts people in, like a clone. It's affecting their acting abilities too because the expressions feel so unnatural.
Her hair is so 90s. That straight look on her is bad. She is becoming a caricature of Nicole Kidman that I loved no matter what.
Yes, I don't understand that she gets roles. I cannot tell a single expression from her face. Just weird.
@@ls-l1518 her name alone is it. I don't either now.
I wondered the whole movie if that was her I had to read the credits ahhah
@@bradyjohnson7705
That's bad. Sad.
We don't need to tiptoe around the fact that she looks nothing like she did when she was younger and no, it's not because of the aging process. It's because of excess plastic surgery, botox, fillers and teeth veneers. She looks like different person now. No, I am not being mean. If this is what the celebrities want to do to themselves, then they should expect the negative reactions from the public. We are the ones who pay to see their movies over the years and if we saw them looking a certain way and now they look like a completely different person, then of course we are shocked.
Si no se hubiera hecho nada en el rostro estuvier envejecido de manera" natural" pero aceptómolo, tampoco nos hubiera gustado, entonces... Porq no dejarle hacer a su rostro los cambios q requiere , si igual va a envejecer?
@@yadaos7470 Your statement of "we wouldn't have liked it either" meaning (the naturally aging face) is only a sad result of social conditioning. Societal brainwashing. Indoctrination of the masses to implant this idea that any signs of aging make someone "unnattractive" and therefore, must be abolished. I reject this social conditioning. I don't buy into it. Never have. I'm certain that if Nicole Kidman had simply left her face alone (like so many beautiful women of our past times did) she would look so much more beautiful than she does now. Of course women can "do what they want". We all know this. It's a personal choice. Yet, we need to consider just how much our personal choices (as women) are influenced by this societal pressure of "wrinkles are ugly". Wrinkles are not ugly. A woman can have a face full of wrinkles and still be beautiful. Yet a woman with a face full of botox and fillers is honestly not beautiful at all. We need to pull our heads out of the sand and see the reality. There is nothing attractive at all about this new "look" that altered women have in these current times. It's just that it's been "normalized" and we have come to accept this look as the new standard. A natural face is always going to be more beautiful. Hands down.
@@blitzkrieg6872*he. it.s a biological male. as Swift and many others. wake up
I totally agree. If she had aged naturally, she probably wouldn't be getting many if any roles. Society, and especially Hollywood, wantswomen to be frozen in time. We don't like looking at what real aging looks like.
But she is getting prettier as she ages.
I think plastic surgery can become an addiction for some people. It doesn't help that our society is so obsessed with perfection and what many people forget is that perfection is an illusion.
Your comment is on point! 🎉
For me the only reason it was obvious she had a facelift recently was how wide and stretched the corners of her lips are now, reaching out towards the sides of her face. I've heard people calling this 'puppet mouth'. Just so surprised you didn't mention it. I noticed the same thing on Kristin Davis (Charlotte from Sex & the City). It just looks so obvious and distracting I can't take it seriously. I hope you don't do this to people in your practice
Yes, it's true. I was absolutely horrified when I saw Kristin Davis in the latest SITC film, that description of 'puppet mouth' that you mention is spot on. She didn't look like herself at all, and I was very sad to the very lovely and so talented Nicole Kidman get that look as well.
@@Out_on_a_Limb_Life christie Brinkley has this as well. I call it the Joker look
In a previous video, the Doctor referred to this "feature" as sometimes called "The Joker's Mouth/Smile" and a sign of multiple facelifts ( obviously worsening with each procedure).
Meg Ryan...poor poor Meg ruined her face!
Pricilla Presley has this also
I'm a bit sad to see the changes in Nicole's face...she took it slowly but the last surgery looks like an unrecognizable Nicole...
I agree. I adore her and it is always so sad when icons become unrecognizable. It would be lovely to see someone just age normally!
She got a new lease on life and looks.....cycle number two coming up......boob lift......next, probably did that a long time ago. She went through one pregnancy so tummy tuck and maybe butt tuck ? it is not just the face that gets improved....the rest of the body follows. It is all under the microscope. I wonder how they manage not ending up with addictions to pain pills. These procedures have to be painful.....Ouch !!!!! the vanity makes it all bearable.
Daryl Hannah came to mind on that last image, I hope she doesn’t do more
@@MinFidler She's one where it didn't turn out well. She was so beautiful before. She still looks good, but she lost her beautiful special look. Not sure what she had done. But as long as she's happy with it....
Wonder if she’s happy with her surgery?
She's getting that weird plastic look now
Now?! 😂
She’s had it for a while now…
Yess...I'm so sad about! She was such a beautiful "Redhead" as She start her Cariere, but first Hollywood doesn't like her original Hair-Color.. So She became "blond" - as all Actresses...blond, blond, blond...always the same boring colored blond...
I know why, because I'm a very "lightful" Redhead, too! And I was treated really bad ...because our Haircolor has a stupid "sexuell" Image..
But I never change my Haircolor - I fight for all People/esp.Women with Red Hair!
But also I'm not an Actor, my Job has nothing to do with Movies
a.s.o.! And I'm happy about! 😍🤗😒
Unfortunately.
She looks amazing!!
It's so sad to see someone so beautiful get destroyed by poorly done surgeries, all because women can't have a career in Hollywood without looking constantly youthful and "filtered." It's even more depressing because these things also destroy young girls' ideas of themselves, making them think everyone else looks airbrushed naturally and they're the only ones who look "flawed" (aka human).
It's not just poorly done surgeries, some have went to expert surgeons and it doesn't make them look any better, they all look the same, plastic.
makes me feel better about not being able to afford any cosmetic inhancement surgeries, seeing beautiful people end up so awful looking. id be so mad if i got something done and it made me uglier😢😅
Nah, it's not poorly done surgeries, but overdone surgeries. At some point you need to stop and understand that you're old and need to just age like a normal person instead of tripling down.
I think some of these women internalize standards of beauty that aren't real. There are plenty of women who age gracefully and are attractive or even hot past 50. I think there's a culture of fear in Hollywood that leads these actresses to get work done way past the point where it makes sense or makes them look better than they otherwise would. It comes down to a lot of these women internalizing a self image that is unrealistic.
She was ‘cute’ in her 20’s but never beautiful imo. She looked fine and still does. Yes she’s had work done but it hasn’t ‘destroyed’ or anything
Nicole Kidman doesn't look like Nicole Kidman anymore.
She’s over-plasticated! She’s gone from looking beautiful to weird-looking! Thanks for that! Xx
She had A LOT more work done throughout the years than you mentioned.
The EXCESSIVE fillers in her face are quite obvious even to layman's eyes.
He did mention filler. He talked about lip filler and then said she started getting a lot of cheek filler in 2010. He's right. It wasn't excessive before that time.
READ MY OTHER COMMENT SHE WAS A TRANS ALL TOM CRISE WOMEN WERE, TOM AND NICOLE WERE EXECUTED.
These cheeks are what appear so fake. Her ex husband just showed up with puffy cheeks so he got the special treatment....Has to look young, again, a requirement in his business. Funny, really, these insecurities......
I think you missed a lot but she looks great so it doesn't matter
@@linanicolia1363 He definitely has had filler. It doesn't look good.
I have quite hooded eyes already at 30. I really like seeing other people who have/ had hooded eyes around my age. I find that seeing the beauty in others with hooded eyes helps to remind me that I'm beautiful, too.
Hooded eyes are beautiful. They convey a sultry mystery. I'm so bored of seeing the typical Instagram-type eyes, where the entire eyelid is fully visible and contoured around the eye socket, with a large space between the eyelid crease and the eyebrow. Yawn. Boring.
Have to disagree with you here doc.. Watch Dead calm and you will see her nose was very upturned, eyes very hooded and she was covered in freckles. She started her surgeries right after that.
I must agree with you.
Agree ! To me, totally different face in Dead Calm.
She's definitely had rhinoplasty! Her nose keeps getting smaller and thinner, lol
I don't know how articles and videos about her face changes always ignore this. I'm surprised he missed that nose job and tons of filler. Her sister has the same upturned nose she used to have. Her skin isn't all natural as freckles were removed. Not farfetched to assume she had other skin resurfacing procedures done too. Her cheeks were full early on but not high cheekbones or else she wouldn't keep putting these fillers that give her that stretched cat look.
She was gorgeous in Dead calm.
I'm Australian. I remember seeing Nicole in the 80's in BMX Bandits. She was an unknown actress, very skinny, with curly red hair and a traditional Aussie accent. Today, she is miles away from her humble beginnings and has crafted her accent to sound cultured.
And no curls. I miss her curls. that straight hair on her is so aging.
I wish she kept her accent
@@nan7503 People always want the kind of hair they don't have. I have straight hair and would love curls. My curly haired sister wanted straight hair. I noticed that Kidman usu. straightens her curly hair. I love her in both. She's also an awesome actress. One of the best.
After years of living abroad and working in the US it's totally normal for her to lose her accent. It happens to everyone living away from their home.
@@germandarling123she actually comes home alot I lived near her in bowral
Thank you for putting this channel out there! I truly enjoy being educated about facial plastic surgeries! I managed ophthalmology practices general and then pediatric for 16+ years. I then “graduated” to general & vascular surgery and also was certified as a tech with both specialties. I found them to be fascinating, but secretly always wished that I had worked for a cosmetic surgeon! You fill that void because I’m a sponge for knowledge so much that I’m going for my master’s in psychology at 66 yrs young. Thank you for your channel and your awesome content! I love your gray matter! Keep up the awesome work! 🤗🙌👏👏👏👏😁
I'm not a medical professional, so I rarely can spot a particular procedure, but a surgically altered face often just 'reads wrong' to me. In "It's Complicated," Steve Martin looked like someone had put his face in a microwave and melted it down into an expressionless mask; fillers, probably.
But I digress. In the last thing I saw Nicole Kidman in, The Undoing (2020), she looked all kinds of wrong, and was hard to watch. Lip filler up to Jesus, and I thought maybe a chin implant, as her jaw line was so unnatural.
I watch a lot of Korean dramas these days, and Seoul is arguably a plastic surgery mecca. It's becoming increasingly difficult for me to watch people who have had a lot of surgery. My esthetic is: "I'd rather look like I needed it, then look like I had it."
Yeah most people don't look better, just different 🤷♀️
I love that comment and will remember it. "Rather looked like I needed it, than looked like I had it". Brilliant!
I totally agree. Watching Nicole's recent movies and TV shows, it's always been hard for me to not focus on her facial features and wonder what she'd had done because the changes are so blatant. Having said that, I think she's a phenomenal actress (The Undoing was crap though lol) and an exceptional beauty. Aging for an A-list actress of her generation must be super difficult so I hope she takes it easy and doesn't go overboard.
The same thing happened to Ryan 'O'Neal--hen is unrecognizable now---scary.
Judith Brighton+ thanks Judith that was excellent! Are you a writer ?
I just wish she kept more ginger tone in her hair,
It really does compliment her complexion beautifully, I feel that the blonde tends to wash out her beauty
she’s almost unrecognizable
Yup
When I watched Aquaman, I kept asking my bestie "Who is she?" Then I realized it was Nicole with the filler face & I just sobbed. Such a shame.😔
@@WillSing4TP i notice she’s taking lousy parts lately, too. i only made it through half of the first episode of nine perfect strangers.
@@grettageragi9598 Such a shame. 😔 Same problem with Courtney Cox.
Maybe. However, she still looks lovely. She’s in her mid-fifties. She would also be “almost unrecognizable “ if she had never done anything along the way. I feel like people judge some cosmetic procedures with unrealistic expectations. it would be nice if all procedures could just magically make you look the same as you did 10-15 years ago but more often the procedures do make you look younger or fresher but not exactly like you looked in the past. It’s so much more noticeable on celebs unfortunately.
In 30 years of her being in the lime light, I've never heard her say a bad word about anyone. We could learn from that.
Learning how to wear make up as you get older makes a huge difference. Too much dark eyeliner on the lower lid makes you look hard and draws the eyes down. Also, matching concealer helps. Drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated.
The real cost is the loss of her natural beauty.
Loss of natural beauty happens over time, regardless of surgery
She is/was aging…….losing her beauty regardless
@@GoOutside321 Aging does not mean loss of beauty. I see beauty in people's faces of all ages.
@@Sara63872 she has lost all natural and still has lost beauty.
@@nicolecarter1072 ?
I'm 69 and all natural. Bald, etc.,, But I stay in shape and am happy for my health.
So comforting to know that us normal people don’t feel so bad about ourselves anymore.
If you feel bad about yourself, a shrink is what you need and not a plastic surgeon. Self esteem is not what is offered with these surgeries, but a look in the mirror you may enjoy. No plastic surgeon can give you self esteem and they avoid people who have that problem . They are never happy......
Thank you for doing more of the older women. Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellweger, Sandra Bullock, Madonna, etc!
I remember a famous model /tv host about 20 years ago, on tv telling people on a show that Nicole has extremely short hair and uses wigs. She was showed a room of all these wigs that she used.
I think she started using a little filler by the late 90s. Her top lip was naturally very thin and much thinner than her lower lip. By this time they start to appear more even in proportion. It seems obvious she had a facelift by the time she filmed The Undoing. There were a lot of close ups and her skin is amazing but not normal for someone of her age. You knew something was different but it was hard to tell what. A lot of people commented on it at the time. In the episode of 9 Perfect Strangers in that scene where she's sitting on the cliff with Melissa McCarthy, the wind blows her hair off her face and you get a good look at her jawline tragus/ lobes, It looks totally unnatural and very obvious she's had a full facelift.
Yes she had a very top lip and what happened to all her freckles, even then she never had lovely smooth skin now even her nose looks finer, being Australian myself I saw her in the early stages of her career. She probably has abrasion to her skin and plenty of botox and fillers. Don't want to sound horrible but being in the fame game she would have had to..
PS meant top lip.
@@cherrylleallan6366 My older sister NOW has very smooth, porcelain skin. And where did her freckles go? (I hadn't seen her in years) TOTALLY different skin...dermabrasion.
@@margietucker1719 Ahh probably that's it dermabrasion.
The weird lip colour and the skin above the lips looks awful
The trouble with plastic surgery is that every single person who thinks they are going to stay young looking instead they all look exactly like Jack Nicholson as the Joker!!!!
Most of them look like an alien
Look at Goldie Hawn; she never was beautiful but she was sooo cute. After she had her face all chopped up she is simply horrific looking. Same goes for Meg Ryan; what a living doll she was until she chopped up her face then ran into hiding.
@@judegirl7607 totally agree with you! They ruined their faces! They were beautiful and cute!
@@judegirl7607 I think Meg Ryan looks good. The doctor(s) obviously made mistakes w/Goldie Hawn. That's the danger of surgery. At least fillers fade away. Surgery doesn't. I'm sure Hawn was pretty upset at the results. Could be she had corrective surgery that made it worse, even. There's something wrong w/one of her eyes, I think I noticed. Her eyes were her trademark. Looks like her surgeon screwed up. So sad. But at least she's married to someone who loves her for who she is. She's also gained weight, which I never thought she would because she was naturally so thin. Kirk's gained a lot of weight himself! Meh...they're immensely wealthy, have had superstar careers, so I guess it doesn't matter. They can do what they want, go skiing, travel, and not worry about what they look like any more.
They don’t look good. All I see is a face full of plastic and injections that looks totally unnatural. I don’t think “Oh, she looks beautiful “. I think “WOW, look at all the surgery she’s had done!.”
I always considered NIcole Kidman a beautiful woman and a great actress. The loss of expression in her face because of Botox, fillers, etc, makes her unwatchable now.
Me too. I thought she was gorgeous.
I can’t watch her anymore either. Even in her more recent miniseries Nicole’s face won’t move. She compensates with flashing eyes and vocal drama. But her face, an actor’s primary tool, has become a frozen mask. Sad that women are pressured to do this kind of self-mutilation in order to have a career. The exception has been Meryl Streep, whose work has been done with a very light hand. Meryl still has all her acting tools.
I thought her face always appeared frozen. The upper lip and the filler on the cheeks is what makes her look weird, to me.
Her face is more natural now. The Botox wears off eventually. I think she said she stopped getting it. Thank goodness.
I agree. I saw her on (I think it was) Graham Norton and when she laughed not a muscle or anything moved in her facial expression. So sad that she feels the need to do this.
This channel is amazing. Incredible what women do to maintain their position in the movie industry
She is not aging well. I saw her in The Undoing and wondered what had happened to her face. She is not looking younger, she just looks like she had work done.
If she continues, she is going to look like Kim Novak who went from beautiful to puppet face.
After seeing this, I’ve decided I will never get a facelift. I’d rather look wrinkly and natural.
I wonder if you'd think the same if your face was in closeup on a 20 foot screen, with people on the internet talking about how old and haggard you look, and why didn't they hire someone younger for that role.
@@donnab8345 Yeah, I actually would because I’m in a similar situation. My husband is a physician whose practice includes offering fillers and Botox. Practically everyone in the whole county comes to him because he has such a good reputation for not over filling and for making people look as natural as possible. I’m constantly under people’s eye and though my husband has never pressured me, I do feel the pressure to look youthful because of how other women act. Still, I’m not doing it, especially seeing how Nicole has turned out. She has access to the best surgeons in the business and she still didn’t know when to stop. Chasing youth is a race no one will win. I’m not getting caught in that trap. I’d rather look in the mirror and see wrinkles than look like an alien and all of them that chase youth end up looking like an alien. You can’t have it both ways.
I'm surprised you haven't pointed out her bad face-lift that pulled her mouth open horizontally - look at her new show Nine Perfect Strangers. It looks like they just pulled her face towards ears and stapled it.
And yes, terrifying chin fillers in Undoing era, the chin gained like 2 fingers in height over years 🙁
Yeah you get a really good look at it in that scene where she's sitting on the cliff with Melissa McCarthy, the wind blows her hair off her face and you see her jawline and tragus/lobes, It looks totally unnatural and very obvious she's had a full facelift. I did a rewind a few times just to look closer, It was freaky
@@PrecociousFriand btti5itiyiyiyiyiuyy uäänitouttyty
What a soft ball take on Nicole Kidman's plastic surgeries.I couldn't stop looking at her in Nine Perfect Strangers and the new film The Northman movie was just the same.
@@PrecociousFriand I mean extensive surgery isn't bad, what I can't wrap my mind around is her choice of surgeons. She could literally go to anyone, pay 150k if necessary...
Not something to laugh at considering you are not a nanometer to her natural beauty even before those enhancements.
Lucky you, you don’t have to exert effort looking good because you simply have to lie down stiff under a rock. Hahaha
My intentions are to be respectful with what I'm about to say, but I wouldn't have casted her in "The Northman" (2022). Reason being that the film obviously takes place in a time period where plastic surgery doesn't exist and it lowkey stuck out to me the entire film, especially in the scene where her face is being illuminated by fire during the night.
Then a lot of people couldn't be cast in that film 😂😂😂😂
People get cast because of their acting skills and sometimes because of their looks.
Funny thing, i had no problem ignoring her face issues and paying attention to the movie
I agree. Most of these actresses look far too plastic to look the parts they are playing.
I’m getting totally hooked on your channel. You explain everything so clearly . Thank you ❤
it was the series 'the undoing' that was most disturbing, I enjoyed watching the plot unfold but was constantly reminded of what a mess Kidman's face has become, she looked like Jack Nicolson's riddler in the older batman movies.
Same here. It's distracting
Let’s add this:
Nicole is a phenomenal actress, and since I had the chance to meet her a few years ago back in London, I can tell you that in person she looks like a legit goddess 😍
Great actress, Mother, n human being. Kieth Urban is the right man they go together like peaches n cream. Happy days always

@@patnelson1411 great actress & beautiful...but surgery 👎
I thought it was unfortunate how stiff her face looked when she won the Oscar in 2003, I feel like you'd want to be able to make full expression when life-changing moments are occurring
Was that the one where she was sweating like a pig? Over botoxed.
Yes,
I remembered when she won her Oscar in 2003. To me she looked terrible! Her hair style was also awful! It was tightly pulled back with that huge forehead that happens with alot of actresses with all the hair color and styles! The last time I tuned in to see her was that HBO series, can't remember the name. She was wearing a red wig with bangs. Not her best look, but it was a series after all. I do hope she stops the surgery. After a certain age so many women by their 50's cannot continue....
Great video but I always have to chuckle when in the middle of your videos a taped version of you pops up to remind people to subscribe. Just right smack in the middle of your commentary! The timing is hilarious. Haha :)
The surgeon doesn’t even acknowledge the drastic change of Nicole Kidman‘s mouth. When she first came on the scene, she showed a lot of gum when she smiled and had a turned up nose. Over the years the gummy smile disappeared and her nose and upper lip became much closer. How is this achieved?
I think it's called a gingivectomy (the gingiva is the tissue above the teeth). Possibly the muscle in the upper lip area is severed, released or something (I'm not a doctor!).
Her last surgery really shocked me. It changed her whole face and not for the best.
The photo in 2022 at the end of the clip, her ears look very large. I dont think they were before all these treatments she has had. Now she will have wear her hair to disguise the size of them.
Where does this all stop. She is going to look odder if she keeps doing this stuff. Look what happened to Joan Rivers after to maany surgeries.
You forgot to mention the veneers on her teeth. The difference between her natural, slightly receding teeth in 2008 (which I think are very attractive) and the straight white teeth she sports by 2010 is marked.
Exactly what I was here to say. Her smile was so natural and charming early on, but later she just ended up with giant, generic chicklet teeth like everyone else in Hollywood. And her face is so frozen and lumpy with filler tha I had actually forgotten what she looked like in the early days!
Cosmetic teeth !!!! Seems like all entertainers are wearing dental implants. The perfections of these teeth is mind boggling. Better than rotten teeth !
She also had that surgery where they cut up inside your mouth so that when you smile you don't see too much gums anymore. That's something that veneers and lip filler cannot cover 100%.
I think she was a masterpiece during her late 30's
Absolutely
Well, to be fair most people are at their peak physical beauty in their 30’s
@@birdlover7776 I’m now 30 😢
when I was little I thought she was the most beautiful thing I saw in the golden compass
Oh no. Now she's almost looking like Madonna.
surprised you did not mention the definite chin implant, visible in all her recent work. and even a possible jaw implant. to me the entire lower part of her face looks very stretched but also bigger, which leads me to believe she got a facelift and chin/jaw implants. why they would do that to her is beyond me. the chin looks very pointy and unnatural and she had great bone structure already. totally unnecessary and strange.
If you watched the video the doctor explains that she has always had an exaggerated jawline, and shows that in her earliest photos. I find it hard to believe she would have had a jaw implant to exaggerate it even further. It's possible that as she's aging the jaw structure is changing.
I've never understood why people say she is beautiful - I've always thought her very plain. But quite a good actress.
Great video as always ;)
Very interesting and educational. You are so respectful (respect means a lot to me)
Thank you 😊
I've NEVER seen a picture of the young Nicole. The way she used to look took me by surprise tbh.
I'm not hating on her or anything, it's just something I noticed: from around 26 on she started to look older than she actually was. I know this struggle and that's why I understand her obsession with plastic procedures. I wished she had a better doc though. It got out of control very quickly.
Watch the movie Dead Calm. I think it was her first big role. You see her real hair too- red and naturally curly
Dude I thought she looked 25 in that pic where she was 16. She always looked older than her age.
@@slbarbieri1725 I love that movie.... underated.
No, she looked like what 16-year olds back then looked like. Now, they're called "children".
red heads have natually thinner skin that ages much faster
My dream is for a celebrity to make a response video and debunk or confirm each suspected procedure. Oo and give us the real total cost, too!
One day it would be fun to do a reaction with the celebrity about our videos!
@@drgarylinkov yes please, let’s do it!
@@drgarylinkov The actress who played the wife of Tim Allen on 'Home Improvement' was brutally honest about what all she had done to her face and body. I believe she called out a bunch of other celebrities for their plastic surgeries that they never owned up to. I don't remember if she gave prices though. This was all before social media. That Heidi chick from 'The Hills' and Donna D'Errico of 'Baywatch' fame, have also been very honest about what all they've had done. Donna looks the most incredible of all celebrities who've had as much done as she has had. She looks very natural AND young, when she's in her 50s!!!
I love the way Dr Linkov cooks his Hello Fresh in his Fresh surgical scrubs ! Fantastic!
I'm not seeing how she was a great beauty. She looked extremely plain when younger. She got nicer looking around 2000. But still I'm confused with her looks. Her acting, though, is outstanding! She didn't break into Hollywood off her looks.
I’m not after a like or reply, but I tell everyone I know about Dr G’s videos. His analysis is fascinating, plus he’s likeable chap into the bargain!
I feel sorry for her, she must have severe insecurities to want to keep doing this to herself. It's very sad.
It is her business. They all have to do it, or they are out.
I find it sad too.
maybe the phone stopped ringing
Especially because she was a fresh , cute redhead next door type.
Cherbear59~~Me too~~I really think we should all grow old gracefully~~Jennifer Lopez was always gorgeous~~What I don't understand is why she had so much done and then to lie about the fact she's had nothing done~~So sad~~Gwen Stefani went to far with all she had done~~I mean those lips of hers are ridiculous~~She was always beautiful~~I dunno~~Their all nuts~~lol~~
Nicole is incredibly beautiful but, more important, she is a brilliant, gifted actor. Although she is certainly famous, she is underrated for her incredible acting ability.
QUESTION: Getting, what seems to me, a lot of work at younger ages, wouldn't that change the way you age and perhaps even cause the need for even more surgery?
Definitely. That's why 50 year old actresses now look weird from too much cosmetic work. Decades ago, around 40 was when they got their first facelift and work.
@@nicolecarter1072 Seems like it would considering the skin will sag regardless of the lift but when it does, , how much skin is there to continue to stretch over time, seems like one would look as if they couldn't talk anymore.
@@nicolecarter1072 Yep, there is only so much skin to stretch over time.
Nicole Kidman looked so much better with her curly red hair then she does with that awful blonde color. She was stunning back then. Now she looks like every other actress in hollywood.
I've followed her changes over the years. I thought she was her most beautiful in her 30s but after her face had thinned out some. As someone that had a full face in my teens and 20s, I preferred losing some of that. I've always found her to be beautiful. I saw some people saying they had never had skin problems such as acne. Others said they have never had a single anti-aging procedure done and get constant compliments on how young they look. To all of you, I say that that is great, but that doesn't necessarily mean you deserve a pat on the back for your good work. Genetics, environment and health issues (or lack thereof) may have had a part in that. Heck, dumb luck could too. NK changed her appearance because she wanted to and if it made her feel more beautiful, then that's great. For most of her life (minus the excess botox for a little while there), she hasn't made extreme changes (until the most recent ones). I can't imagine the pressures she faces as an actress in her 50s. Kudos to her for taking pride in her appearance no matter what she does.
I think she looks beautiful. She backed off some fillers, but she has had nice work done.
I think you approach it from an angle that doesn't take into account the fact that those pressures are unethical. Bending to the pressures to the point that you get stuck under the knife is not positive. It is not a failure of morality, but it is not a cause for celebration, either. It is a cause for awareness. Celebrities affect culture when they do things like this, and it doesn't affect society in a positive way.
What pressure is she feeling exactly? She has made it to the top, has more money than she needs, and a successful career behind her. She is no longer in her prime. She should be happy and content and accepting of her age. "Pressure" is a thing she should not be feeling, if she's healthy and happy. It's a bit greedy to expect to continue being a world famous beauty and a top movie star in the same way you were in your 20s and 30s.
@@dailybls well, she IS a talented actress. She has every right to continue to work. She keeps getting better.
@@dailybls I totally agree with you and look at these wonderful people like Sophia Loren ... she aged naturally .
People like Kidman lie about it tell us they haven't had any work done and you know it's almost like they do that on purpose to make everybody else feel like crap ... think about it .
Easier to have more respect for people like Joan Rivers who admit they have a lot of work done and aren't phony about it
I really wish she would have allowed herself to age naturally. I just saw her in the Northman movie and could not believe that was her. It looked like someone else wearing a Nicole Kidman mask. It freaked me out to look at her. Oh well we all do what we want with our faces I suppose.
Agreed, Nicole is trying to stay youthful when she's old now, she freaked me out too!!!
I've noticed that she started looking a bit strange and lost some of her extraordinary youthful beauty (but more than just aging), although she's still beautiful! It's okay to have a few wrinkles in the forehead and for your eyes to be expressive. But when your face is on a 20-foot screen in high definition color, I guess I'd freak out over a few wrinkles and sags, too. She's still beautiful and an extraordinary talent. And seems such a lovely, sweet person.
I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW STUNNING AND BEAUTIFUL SHE LOOKS! That's my first time seeing a
younger picture of her. Her weight loss at 19 is the Nicole Kidman we all know.
She had mega curly hair when she was young...like a blonde Afro. It's beautiful. Don't understand why she has straightened it all these years!
Red
I had hair like that in the 70s. It was called "an Afro" and was all the rage for the times - no racism implied. Then I simply stopped perming my hair to get that style, and became straight haired once again.
I am reminded of Madonna in the May 2022 picture. I wonder if they share the same surgeon?
No body shaming implied. They both work in fields where - with respect to plastic surgery - you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Madonna, in my humble opinion, is unrecognizable. Recent pics with her son David on a red carpet, I believe it was in May this year.
the ad in the middle made me laugh
I feel for her daughters .... I understand Nicole's line of work, etc., but it's just not a great example for her young daughters.
When I saw Kidman in the Netflix miniseries she did with Hugh Grant I was shocked... I actually yelled at the tv, "STOP HAVING SURGERY ON YOUR FACE!"
I know it wasn't a box office hit, but I loved her in far and away. So beautiful and a great actress.
My guy flew into that sponsorship on a segue so seamless he stunted on us all
Dr Gary, cooking straight on aluminium foil is not healthy- baking paper is preferable. I refer to you cooking in this segment.
I like how you use these very medical, formal words for her great bone structure while I’ve always just been like damn she’s chiselled
She was hauntingly beautiful in the 90s. So unique.
That natural hair is EVERYTHING! She is naturally a beautiful woman indeed unlike some plastic worshiping celebrities.
Hello fresh is definitely my favorite! It's really great and helps me understand just how much I actually need for a meal.
I can't say I blame her. Hollywood is not forgiving of aging in women.
A huge star like her doesn’t need to worry that but yeah you’re right generally.
Meredith Anderson sad but true
Her skin is amazing, she never had a single pimple nor hyperpigmentation
She had a lot of freckles that she has erased , also her skin is very thin that is why she has had that many facelifts and fillers, she is gorgeous but I don't wish her skin at all.
Watch To Die For and you can see her freckles before she got rid of them.
She appears pretty pale to me.
Aw Nicole so beautiful you don’t need all these surgeries honey! How is your soul doing? You must feed the inside and be happy from within and that youthfulness will shine through. Sad almost no one wants to do this and that we all tend to judge each other by appearances only. Sad!
I think these videos are fascinating and appreciate the expert knowledge Dr. Linkov shares. I naively thought these actors were just gifted with perfect features but clearly many of them made changes at the start of their careers. Whatever the case, I feel sorry for those with long careers who endure such pain to remain relevant in Hollywood only to resemble mannequins in the end.
She also had obviously weird chin fillers during Pretty Little Liars. She looked gorgeous I think in season 1 but in Season 2 her chin filler was very distinct.
That would be Big Little Lies (Nicole's not in PLL)
@@ReaghanReilly Thats right, my bad. I saw both and I think both have Reese Witherspoon in them? I may also be wrong. I watch a lot of movies, and series. They all blend together at some point.
Dr. Linkov, as you know, I love your content to the point I smile when I see you've posted a new video. I love learning about all things plastic surgery related.
That Hello Fresh add tho! 😍
Your wife is awesome! She keeps her world class surgeon at home, barefoot, wearing scrubs, in the kitchen cooking those tasty meals. 😆 That was adorable.
I love how he analyzes celebrities faces! I want mine next
Anybody else find the doctor oddly handsome, when doesn’t he also act. He has the look of an alien he has that star quality .
She's a natural beauty I agree with the other comments blaming Hollywood madness misogynistic lifestyle
would love to hear your thoughts about Angelina Jolie's evolution.
Hi @Dr.Gary. I wrote you on IG. Please check your inbox messages.
Im glad you're talking about her the last couple things I've seen her in I could tell she looked different & wondered what procedures shes done here lately. Still a beautiful talented women!
Shes always even beautiful, but looked so really mature for her age. Maybe it's just the makeup, but she looks 35 at 24 and 45 at 28.
But seriously, look at minute 7:01, if that ain't perfection it doesn't exist or you have to rename it
I remember her playing some doctor, brain surgeon character in 'Days of Thunder' with Tom Cruise. But the age she was at the time she would have just been graduating college. There's no way she would have gone through medical school and residency to be his doctor at that young of an age unless her character was like Doogie Howser, M,D.. So, obviously she was playing an older character when she was still very young.
I find her almost unrecognizable now .
I think she had chin surgery. It looks much thinner than when she was young. Her eyes are less rounded and stretched outwards. Her hair has gone from red to I don' t know how to qualify the color. I think she had freckles as well young but her skin now looks uniformily pale white all over.
Nice video, well explained, thank you. Just one comment, also applicable to other videos: once Nicole started botox, it is obvious that she kept using it regularly, while it is only mentionned once in the video.
I’ve always found her beautiful and even more important, she’s very talented. It’s her forehead that got many of us talking some years ago. I am her age, and while it’s not easy going from a young face to an old one , I think when we do too much we not only no longer look like ourselves , but often quite odd. I get a tiny bit of Botox and filler in my lips due to very thin lips. Otherwise , micro needling. I prefer pretty natural with a tweak. Nicole still looks great but she for sure has had some major work done.
We love Hello Fresh. I thought it wouldn't be necessary but it really makes my life more stress-free.
Nicole looks totally different from when she was married to Cruise till now...Too much work takes away from the acting when the face doesn't move...
The main reason she looks different is that as she ages like everyone does , the shape of her faces changes ,
No 55 year old can look exactly the same as they did in their 20's.
Females with fine bone structure and fair skin can start to show their age more as they get older because the sun can damage the skin and the loss of the natural fat from the skin due to aging can show a face that looks aged and tired looking .
A lot of film stars , would not be able to be recognize if they had no plastic surgery procedures because they would look just as aged as average people you see shopping in the local supermarket who look their age or who look older than their real age
@@philipmullins6235 Agree...But too much filler looks so unnatural...Nicole is just beautiful...I think Salma Hayek had great work done and looks stunning...
My favorite Kidman look was when she was all dolled up in Stepford Wives, now she looks sorta frozen during The Undoing
i watched the hello fresh commercial just to see your kitchen! I like it! Thx for sharing Dr. G
No god...no say it ain't so... She was beautiful... Her in moulin rouge still makes me cry to this day she deserved a Oscar for that movie she was so stunning... Why do these beautiful people not just let themselves age natural like regardless of surgery you will age and most surgeries don't age well.
Some do like Judy Dench and Helen Mirren
@@afinnimore1 Mirren has absolutely had work done (but is still a beauty!)
@@ArtByEmilyHare oh she says she hasn't! Must be something very discrete!
@@afinnimore1 there are a few pics online where you can see the pulling on the sides of her face, just look up before and after. I understand why women do it, but wish they didn't. I believe Andie Macdowell and Cameron Diaz both have avoided work (and both have lovely wrinkles!). There are a few more actresses who've avoided it and it's pretty obvious once you compare anyone of the same age to say Nicole here, to them and what most 50 something's look like! Personally I prefer Nicole's untouched face best, but I like variety and find the homogenisation of faces that's happening with more extreme surgery really dull!
@@ArtByEmilyHare oh that's a shame if she's had something done, hope the doctor will review sometime. I still think of Cameron as being quite young and yes looking natural apart from a little filler I think? Andie looks great.
before than watching the new video hello dr linkov after a very long time , I'm sure is an amazing video as always , and I couldn't watch the entire hair Tx video while you were doing but I could watch some of that I just wanna say that was an amazing experience and I love how you did the interaction and all the explanations etc etc etc , and I loved the quality of the video and quality if the great job, I assume that was the new 100K surgery-specific camera that you were talking about like before the christmass that was an amazing exp and bytheway you are glowing positivity dr :))
Thanks for the support!
Could you start addressing dental work? She’s obviously had veneers or crowing done.
She also has dental work
Not that I was ever going to do it, but this blog made me be sure to never ever have plastic surgery.
DOC you're words are getting TECHNICAL AGAIN.
Of all the FL results I've seen; Jennifer Lopez has had the best surgeon in my opinion.
Agree
Dr Gary, is it possible to find a celebrity actress who in large part has aged with minimal plastic surgery? It would be really interesting to see the contrast between almost normal aging and Melanie Griffon for example. Has Sally Field done a lot?
Melissa Gilbert supposedly hasn’t done a lot. She admitted she started then basically said, nope. No more. Shelly Long doesn’t seem to have done a thing. Candace Cameron Bere. Is that her last name? What has she done? Jamie Lee Curtis is suppose to be natural. Or, Julia Roberts.
Monica bellucci, julia ormond
@@mariedrapalova7365 Yes! Especially since Monica claims to wanting to age peacefully and get a lot of work done. Would be interesting.
Catherine O'Hara hasn't done anything. J Lo and MIchelle Pfeiffer have had really good and subtle work done.
@@UltimoDogLover Yes. Those are good ones that clearly have had stuff done, but not insanely!
I wonder which is worse for a woman: having great beauty and losing it or never having beauty at all.
I wish celebs would just age gracefully instead of all this face altering surgeries to keep them young or to make them look younger then what they really are. Great video thanks for your teaching us about these procedures.
