Did Gwyneth Paltrow Get Plastic Surgery?

Gwyneth Paltrow has been in the spotlight for several years now, but while her beauty has certainly captivated audiences both on screen and off, like everyone else in the world, she is getting older and may be interested in dabbling in plastic surgery to turn back the hands of time. But while she has already admitted to getting Botox injections, has the blonde thespian gotten a little extra work done recently?

When looking at some of Paltrow’s recent pictures, there seems to be something a little different about her. Her face seems refreshed and glowing and it seems as though her wrinkles have vanished into thin air. Could this be a sign she’s had more Botox?

Back in April, Paltrow admitted she had Botox but swore she would never try it again lest she resembles Joan Rivers. She did, however, say she will “try anything” else, so perhaps that’s Paltrow’s subtle way of admitting she’s had other plastic surgery procedures we don’t know about.

“I’ll try anything. Except I won’t do Botox again because I looked crazy. I looked like Joan Rivers!” she admitted.

A lot of celebrities – and regular people – may try Botox once and may not like the results, but the great thing about Botox is that it’s not permanent. The effects wear off in about four months and at that point, patients can choose whether to redo their treatment or never have another Botox injection again.

Here at Body Sculptor, we recommend trying maybe one or two areas at a time to get a feel for the effects of Botox before diving in and getting multiple injections all over your face. Like everything in life, too much of a good thing can be bad, and the purpose of plastic surgery and cosmetic treatments like Botox is to enhance your own features and appear natural and vibrant, not drawn out or robotic.

Paltrow did say that she may or may not go under the knife when she’s a bit older, but in addition to looking younger, Paltrow’s breast size also seems smaller in recent photos. It is quite possible that Paltrow underwent breast reduction surgery or perhaps even a breast lift. At 40 years old, the actress looks wonderful, but even those who are blessed with good genes may need a little extra help to stay looking refreshed and youthful – especially Hollywood celebrities who are under constant scrutiny.

And with her new movie, “Iron Man 3” coming out, it’s only natural if Paltrow feels as though she may benefit from mild plastic surgery procedures to keep her looking great on the big screen.  There are many treatments that are minimally invasive that can help patients look their best without undergoing a dramatic change.  Body lifts are great for patients who may not be ready for a face lift, but who would like to keep their physiques looking toned and tight. At Body Sculptor, Dr. Otto Placik offers several options for patients, including the popular Chicago Brazilian Butt Lift. For a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation, patients also have the option of undergoing a peel or microdermabrasion.

There are plenty of choices for patients of all ages who want to enhance their natural beauty. If you are in the Chicago area, turn to Dr. Placik to see what your ideal option would be.
