To think that botox, fillers, and other facial procedures are becoming too common?

I've just seen the recent pictures of the lovely Shania Twain. She's had so much facial work done that she looks unrecognizable! I find this such a shame given how naturally beautiful she's always been!

I also feel that facial work is causing a division between rich and poor women. I'm not sure what the answer to this is though?

Agreed. I hate the thought of our beautiful young girls thinking its necessary. It looks really awful when its obvious.

Yeah I agree! I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing but more and more people I know are having "tweaks" whereas before it felt like plastic surgery was just for celebrities.

Not sure about divide between rich/poor though - we are all council round here and loads of the girls have had botox/fillers etc and none are particularly well-off.

All of those things are common, full stop.
People have no idea how to grow old gracefully and with style. Rather, they think looking like a trout-lipped plastic doll is attractive.

Just live and let live is my motto on this stuff. I haven't had any facial work done but if I wanted to, I would without a second thought to how other people view me. I would only do stuff like this for myself anyway, my husband would probably hate it but oh well.
