When a celebrity's cosmetic surgery goes wrong, sometimes horribly wrong, it's convenient to chalk up the results to "bad luck," but that's usually not the case, said noted Plastic Surgeon Prof. Laurence Kirwan. "There's more involved than a simple roll of the dice. Aesthetic surgery is a big step and some celebrities don't go through the correct steps to ensure a good outcome," Dr Laurence Kirwan said.

luck, noted cosmetic surgeon says
Cosmetic Surgery not a Throw of the Dice
When a celebrity's cosmetic surgery goes wrong, sometimes horribly wrong, it's
convenient to chalk up the results to "bad luck," but that's usually not the case,
said noted Plastic Surgeon Prof. Laurence Kirwan.
"There's more involved than a simple roll of the dice. Aesthetic surgery is a big
step and some celebrities don't go through the correct steps to ensure a good
outcome," Dr Laurence Kirwan said.
Prof. Kirwan is a recognised international leader in aesthetic plastic surgery with
clinics in Harley Street, London; New York City; and Connecticut, USA. He
specialises in aesthetic plastic surgery of the face, breast and body.
"People assume a celebrity's access, money and power will guarantee them the
best cosmetic surgeon available but that's not always the case,"Laurence
Kirwan said.
Kirwan one reason celebrity surgeries often don't go well is that celebrities
simply don't do enough research to find the best surgeon for their particular
procedure. They might consult their manager or other adviser instead of doing
the research themselves and that's not a good idea, he said.
"These celebrities must live with the results of their surgeries, so it behooves
them to research the surgeons themselves," Dr Laurence Kirwan said.
The surgeon should be listed on the specialist register of the country where he
trained in cosmetic surgery, he said.
Dr. Kirwan said another reason celebrities' cosmetic surgeries don't turn out
well is they just don't know when enough is enough.
"Sometimes it's apparent that neither lack of surgical skill nor bad luck is the
culprit; the person just had the same area worked on one (or more) too many
times."
Sometimes a second procedure is necessary but it doesn't follow that more
always is better with the "poster child" being Michael Jackson and his nose, of
course, Dr. Laurence Kirwan said.

2. Another good (or bad) example is Italian socialite Michaela Romanini, who
underwent far too many lip and Botox injections and now has a wrinkled neck
and unusually large lips, Kirwan said.
A third reason celebrities' cosmetic surgeries don't turn out well is the surgeons
themselves fall victim to what one might call "the lure of celebrity," Prof.
Laurence Kirwan said.
"They abandon common sense, seeking to become celebrities themselves. It's
hard to resist, especially if the celebrities themselves exploit that," Kirwan said.
Laurence Kirwan said he would give a celebrity the same advice he gives his
other patients, "Make sure you know why you're seeking the surgery. Are you
genuinely ‘fixing' something or just trying to ‘improve' something?" Lastly,
Surgeons themselves should remain grounded and avoid the tendency of the
media and their patients to paint them into a celebrity corner. The duty of care
for all patients is the same regardless of means or fame.
