Aging is a very scary topic for many. A lot of us are afraid of the future when we will have wrinkles, gray hair, and saggy skin. The beauty standards today make it seem like the end of the world sometimes. Physical and facial beauty is even more important if it's a big part of your career. That's why celebrities often get plastic surgeries to look younger a little longer.

I decided to take a few celebrities and use A.I. and my editing skills to see how they would look like if they never had plastic surgery. The results are quite interesting and fun to see. Keep in mind that all of this is just out of curiosity and all is in good faith. Also, A.I. still has a long way to go, so some images may look a little wonky.

More info: Instagram

I first started this project by doing research on which celebrities have had the most plastic surgeries. Then I study other people in similar age groups so that I know what they should look like. Then I use artificial intelligence to age photos of their younger selves and edit the pictures on Photoshop to make them look better and more realistic.

I believe that in moderation, plastic surgery is very useful. When people dislike something about their looks, it hurts no one to change that aspect. Or perhaps when people get hurt or wounded, plastic surgery is a great tool to help them look like their old selves. There is nothing wrong with wanting to look the way you want to. However, when people overuse plastic surgery, not only does it not look very good, it can also be very harmful to the person undergoing the surgery.

This is a product of mental illness. The real horror of examples like this, is that these surgeons are allowed to disfigure people who are mentally and emotionally vulnerable with no penalty - and they do it solely for money, with complete disregard for their v̶i̶c̶t̶i̶m̶s̶ patients.

Agree with everything you have said, but some patients will become suicidal unless they get the surgery they crave.

Looked her up on wikipedia and there I found this line: "She denies having any plastic surgery, citing her Swiss heritage." and all I can think is WHAT?!

IMHO she has likely never gotten the results she wanted…which is why she continues to get more work done. It’s an addiction for some.

This is so sad. Stuff like this needs to be talked about. It has to be a mental illness. No healthy minded person would do this to themselves. I see Khloe Kardashian going down the same road. How do these people not see how they are disfiguring themselves? It's sad that people are disrespectful and say mean things. Which helps nothing or no one. But we can't just sit here and act like this is okay. But what do you do to help this?

Years ago celebrities were massively unhappy because they'd been having "fashionable" butt-enhancing parties and "plumping" parties. Like a home Tupperware party. With some famous $$$$$ doctor who injected them with stuff. Big fun. Wine all around. Then the doctor was found to not be a doctor, the women were getting internal infections, the Blobs were migrating elsewhere in their bodies, and upon inspection it was found he was injecting everything from cooking oil to motor oil, window sealant. Priscilla Presley was disfigured into the mess she is due to one of them. Vanity is a strange thing. https://www.theguardian.com/g2/story/0,3604,856700,00.html .... https://www.the-sun.com/news/1000730/mexico-cosmetic-surgery-women-inject-oil-plastic-rot/

Botox just paralyze the muscles, nothing to worry about (just keep it to a minimum and natural use) what happend with this face is, I think that she has had upper and lower eyelid surgery and a brow-lift, face-lift, lip-plumping injections, fat grafting, and/or cheek implants.

A total criminal disaster! The NYC DA should have charged her plastic surgeon with negligence and fraud! I mean, she might have asked for her surgeries but there should be a limit to what a plastic surgeon should legally be allowed to do on a desperate client! Basically, Jocelyn's surgeon just took advantage of her insecurities to make millions and I totally blame the authories for allowing this type of crime to exist! Fortunately, Jocelyn has undergone reconstructive surgery somehow successfully. However, it's a long process! I really hope this time she recovers part of her normalcy!

This is so sad. As I said before … to be inside her head, what dose she see that only surgery can obtain. How do women with access to the very best skin care and stylist money can buy, instead give money to unethical Plastic Surgeons. The surgeons responsible for this should loose their licences

These days almost everyone wants to look like filters on apps. No wrinkles, stretch marks, or any other "unattractive" things about our bodies can be shown. It's really sad to see that. We're all human beings and nobody is perfect. We should accept that the marks on our bodies, the imperfections are what make us unique and beautiful. There is no need to hide them.

The most difficult part of this project was to make the photos look natural and resemble the celebrities. Artificial intelligence still has a lot of flaws, so I had to work with Photoshop a lot. I take time to put different hair and makeup on the celebrities. See what works, what they would look like today, etc. I try to be a perfectionist when it comes to my projects and it takes a lot of time. I hope you enjoy what I've done!

So, if she'd allowed herself to age naturally, she'd look more like her mom (Tippi Hedren) and might have held onto Antonio Banderas.... Not seeing a downside to that. (Side note: Banderas found her obsession with cosmetic enhancement troubling and it became an issue in their relationship ending.)
