Jim Carrey's new face
Jim Carrey's new face
I’m going to play a little devil’s advocate, not about the “if they should” but more about how they end up looking unrecognizable.
I used to be very athletic. Then I got very heavy. Then I went back to athletic, but when I did so I ended up with the Mitch McConnell turkey neck. It was fugly, I’m not going to lie, and it bothered me. I’m also opposed to plastic surgery so I figured that’s the way it was going to be. Then I got cancer in my neck. After they cut out the tumor and all other affected tissue, they had to do a bit of reconstruction. Out went the cancer along with the turkey neck and my jaw line is looking like a million bucks. I’m hot again baby!
And that’s the problem. I can see somebody having a positive first experience with reconstructive surgery and assuming that more of it will make it more better. You feel better about yourself and suddenly believe that you can feel better still. You’d be wrong, but I get why you would think that.
