Has Ellen Barkin had Plastic Surgery?

Succumbing to the pressures of looking great in Hollywood, as well as to looking younger, the award-winning actress has had some cosmetic procedure experience in the form of Botox. However, she swears it’s something she doesn’t want to do again. As a matter of fact, she regretted having one before.

“Botox. I don’t like the way it makes people look. Too many people go overboard, and for an actress, that’s deadly. It keeps you from being able to have expressions. Some actresses who used to have a beautiful smile have this weird kind of oval thing they do with their mouths instead. They can’t frown anymore, either. They look like they’ve lost their minds,” she said.

According to her, she also hasn’t had any nose job or a facelift. She said: “I didn’t get my nose fixed; my whole face is crooked. Any plastic surgeon would look at me and try to even it out, and to do that he’d have to change everything, straighten my nose, make my eyes rounder. I don’t want to do that!” So, what makes her face tight and shiny looking? Thermage. It’s a radiofrequency treatment for tightening the skin and encouraging collagen growth. She also undergoes a laser treatment called Fraxel.
