The sleuths over at Radar Online took a look at Ben Affleck’s freshly-shaven face and realized he looked a little “refreshed” so they called some awesomely bitchy plastic surgeons to comment. Looking at the before and after photos, I have to agree that there’s more than just a lack of facial hair going on. Ben looks like his skin is smooth and much tighter than before. Radar quotes plastic surgeons who speculate that Ben had a little too much Botox along with some work done around his eyes. I question whether he went under the knife, but they’re onto something about the Botox. Here’s what their plastic surgeons, who obviously have not worked on Affleck, said:
“He’s had the entire upper third of his face worked on, and the result is he looks more like Jack Nicholson‘s Joker than Batman,” Dr. Back said.
Dr. Back told Radar that Affleck has also undergone plenty of Botox over his eyes, leaving a perpetually surprised expression on his face.
“A small amount of Botox fills your wrinkles and makes you look relaxed and well rested,” Dr. Back explained. “He’s had so much put in that his eyebrows look jacked up and he’s just downed 50 cups of coffee.”
To make matters worse, Dr. Back believes that Affleck has also undergone cosmetic procedures on his perpetually puffy eyelids.
“Again, it’s a case of too much work where only a little was needed,” he said. “Fat and skin has been trimmed from both above and below the eyes, and it’s so starkly different that he might as well be Kenny Rogers.”
Other experts surmised that Affleck recently opted for cheek fillers and laser skin treatments as well –– but it’s gone too far.
“He’s got skin as smooth as a 20-year-old,” said Dr. Anthony Youn of the actor’s treatments.
“It’s way too much. He’s lost the definition in his face and it’s actually feminized him a bit,” Dr. Back countered. “It’s a pretty-boy baby face that doesn’t belong on him. If he was just trying to look like he’s not getting older –– he failed. If he was trying to look like Justin Bieber –– it’s a bull’s-eye!”
Damn Radar has the numbers of some snarky plastic surgeons. I’m pretty sure that Jennifer Garner has had subtle lip injections over the years and she’s been looking mildly ‘toxed recently so I wouldn’t be surprised if Affleck something done too. He definitely looks different, especially around the eyes, and hopefully it will settle for him. It’s possible he also had some kind of laser facial as they mention. I can’t say I blame him despite the shocking results. I’m around Affleck’s age and recently got one of those microcurrent facial treatment devices. (It was a gift but I asked for it. It’s supposed to tone your facial muscles.) I can’t tell if it’s working yet but it does make my skin feel super smooth. If my friends were getting injectables and they recommended someone, I would probably go for it. It’s not like a haircut that will grow out though, you can permanently screw up your face with some of these treatments. Also, I have to say something nice. The dude’s an actor and he just started working on a new movie. It’s possible this wasn’t even his idea although you would assume he would have a say.
