And what gets me is people assume that it is a bad thing if she did. Like it takes away from her natural inner and outer beauty somehow. I say it is her body and she can do what she wants with it. I also think saying that she looks great and like she has had something tweaked is okay.

Of course, I spent my lipposuction money going to China last month. So, what the hell do I know other than I have to do it now the old fashion way

- which aint so bad

It isn't a bad thing at all because she looks great! Everything she's had done has been subtle and for the better.
But yeah, I know exactly what you mean. She still is a natural beauty but come on everyone needs a little help. Even Elizabeth Taylor and Brigitte Bardot got old, that doesn't stop them from being great beauties back in the day.

she still looks like stevie nicks. i know i've posted this opinion before, but her photo from the TISL liner notes is identical to the Rumours cover outtakes. actually identical. i give her surgeon props... she hasn't developed that mutated plastic visage that so many people get after surgery.

Laser is cool becasue it doesn't require an incision and it smooths out the wrinkles and firms the skin.
The treated area is a giant scab for a while afterward, though.

And why not? I'm pretty sure she had lipo between TOSOTM and Mask tours. I saw her in a relatively short time frame then and the difference was remarkable.
She was a smoker and that is very bad for the skin. So yes, I would agree that she had something done. I just didn't see the tightness of a face lift. The wrinkles were gone which leads me to believe laser.

I would agree. What's she's had done looks quite natural, but she definitely has had something done.

I've always thought she looked a bit stretched in this pic though:

I wonder if she's had something done to her chin. Can you get a chin tuck?

that photo HAS to be touched up. She does not have one line on her face, around her mouth, around her eyes, etc. Plus, the lighting is too perfect for candid. But, maybe I am wrong.

Speaking of lighting, I just got back from lunch with these two wild women I know. We were at this swanky hotel and they were doing a photo shoot. It was all could do not to SCREAM at the a$$hole photographer (he really was an apparent jerk) that he needed to move the lights about two feet higher as he was not selling her unadorned neck to the public - I gotta get a life

Yes. It's more of a neck lift though, I think.

I see what looks to be a lot of collagen in that photo. It looks good.

I don't agree with the "sister's had LOTS of work done" opinion, but I do think Stevie's had a "refresher" or two, like Chris (gldstwmn) has said.

By the way, I don't know what constitutes "plastic surgery" and what doesn't, but I've always assumed that kind of thing was more extensive and invasive than a chemical peel or Botox injection.
Or is "plastic surgery" just the cover-all word for having anything done?

*shudders*

I'll live with the wrinkles, thank you very much.

Yuck.

It's most definitely a touched-up pic. And not a very good one at that -- check out that decollete area.

Chemical peels and Botox injections DO NOT constitute plastic surgery. You can have those done on your lunch break.

I think Stevie's had her eyes worked on and a little done to her face and jowels. I'm not sure if she's had a full-on facelift, but I'm sure she's had a few things done involving actual surgery. More power to her, too. It's not like she's taken a ride down Melanie Griffith Avenue. If I don't like my chicken neck or sagging cheeks when I'm older and I have the cash, sign me up. We only live one life, folks.

What makes the difference when it comes to someone just looking a little younger and refreshed after having work done, and someone coming out looking like Farrah or Melanie or Loretta Switt do?
Is it really the difference between a good surgeon and a less competent one?

I'm asking because it just amazes me sometimes that someone can apparently have plastic surgery and come out looking GORGEOUS and natural, while others come out looking so unnatural and unlike themselves.

I have no problem with plastic surgery when it's tastefully done.

I've always thought Stevie had her nose done too, though no one seems to agree with me on that.

I was thinking that too, it doesn't seem so upturned now.

It's not much different, though, if she did have something done. I simply MUST have Stevie's plastic surgeon when the time comes! Which is in, like, 2 years?
