Courteney Cox regrets having so much cosmetic surgery

Publish date: 2024-06-05

Courteney Cox regrets jacking up her face with Madame Puppet, joker-like fillers and botox, ensuring that her all-American girl looks remain a faded relic from a 1984 Bruce Springsteen video.

"I grew up thinking that appearance was the most important thing. That's kind of sad because it got me in trouble. I was trying so hard to keep up, and I actually made things worse."

She didn't initially realize how much her appearance was changing because she got all of the injections and fillers gradually. A friend ultimately told her she needed to stop visiting cosmetic doctors.

"The next thing you know, you're layered and layered and layered," she said. "You have no idea because it's gradual until you go, "Oh shit, this doesn't look right."

Cox says that her physical transformation looks more extreme in photos than it does in person. Still, she's since had her fillers removed, even though she's not ruling out getting further work done in the future.

That's brave of her to be so candid about it. Much love and respect, Ms. Cox. xoxoxoxo

Did they squeeze the fillers out like popping a zit?

R3. They inject something called "Hyaluronidase" which dissolves the filler.

She said in an interview probably a decade ago that she thought she had too much botox. 10 long botox loaded years later, and she said she's probably not done. Her looks are shot for good.

Her face and features are way too thin to recover from all the injections and facial surgeries.

I wonder if she and Jennifer Aniston still hang out.

Jennifer A. left them all in the dust being A-list, most famous woman in the world, hot husband, more money than god, beautiful and can be in any movie she chooses. She is one of the few people who will never have to worry about anything ever again except if she ever got cancer.

She does look a lot better and more natural in the photo at OP. (A Google image search indicates it's new.)

At least she's more recognizable as the possessor of her previous face.

She deserves credit for reversing course and going public about it, instead of becoming a grotesque pillowface like so many.

She panicked that last season of friends when she was hiding her pregnancy and her face filled out. She would have been fine if she'd just let things be.

This was the pic that put an end to it.

Many people who swear off fillers, finally update their haircut, or start a big diet have "the picture"

She looks like she had the Madonna lite package here. Doctors all do this and think it looks "natural" and "just a bit filled in, where you lost fat" - except it doesn't.

She only regrets it because it turned out bad. If it was good she would be happy so this is a non story.

It's like a gambler who instead of realizing gambling is bad, only thinks it's bad because he lost.

My oldest sister had a chemical peel and it took years off her. She's 48 and honestly could pass for 32-35. We're all lucky that everyone in the family doesn't really start to wrinkle or sag until mid to late fifties judging by the previous generation, we've all got good skin and look younger than we are. We're all quite fit and slim but not skinny, I think that helps if you're going to start a tweak here and there. A reasonable musculature always looks better than skeletal thin.

People are kidding themselves if they think it all dissolves away and they look natural and the way they did before.

Hard to believe she never had one true friend who pulled her aside and say hey wait a minute too bad greedy doctors never stopped to ask her to seriously reflect on the long term consequences of this.

with or without fillers, she's probably not getting the roles she did in the past. This signals her willingness to take age appropriate parts.

"I think she still looked good in Dirt but doing Couger Town she changed, which is ironic given that she was playing a 40 year old woman who was supposed to be okay with aging. "

I thought she still looked fairly good in Cougar Town. I never thought she was aging that badly. Of course, I'm judging this by a TV show, where she has professional makeup and lighting.

BTW, Dirt was a fun little show. I surprised something like it doesn't get produced in this TMZ, social media age.

Watch between - I think - between seasons 4 and 5 of Cougar Town (might be 3 and 4), but the entire lower half of her face changes shape and it doesn't look great. It doesn't look awful, but looked better before.

R47. Fillers are often used to fill in bags underneath the eyes. Too much filler can make the area around the eyes look puffy and the eyes themselves look sunken or smaller.

I bet she regrets those over-plucked eyebrows more than the hair-style. The bangs are clip on. Bad look altogether.

This is exactly wrong. It's the removal of undereye bags that gives one a hollow look and fillers can make it look better, but fillers are temporary.

The biggest complaint after blepharoplasty & removal of eye bags is a hollow look under the eyes.
