Many of us find flaws in our looks or want to stop the aging process. In such cases, we might turn to plastic surgery. However, these procedures don’t always guarantee that the results will be to our liking. Some celebrities have faced these problems too, and they’ve admitted to regretting going under the knife, preferring to not repeat the same mistake in the future.
1. Simon Cowell
“There was a stage where I might have gone a bit too far. I saw a picture of me from ’before’ the other day and didn’t recognize it as me, first of all,” the TV personality admitted last year. Since then, Simon Cowell vowed to never use fillers again and is trying to regain his natural looks. Cowell also confessed that he had overdone it with Botox when he tried the procedure, stating that he currently prefers more simple facials.
2. Cameron Diaz
Cameron Diaz is another Hollywood star who had Botox regrets. “It changed my face in such a weird way that I was like, ’No, I don’t want to be like that,’ — I’d rather see my face aging than a face that doesn’t belong to me at all,” the actress said. Since then, Diaz has fully embraced the natural aging process, especially her laugh lines, which, according to her, only prove that she has “smiled her whole life.”
3. Anna Faris
Unsatisfied with her thin lips, Anna Faris turned to fillers to make them look plumper. And although she never went overboard, she came to later regret the procedures, as she couldn’t go back to her original lip shape. On the other hand, the actress doesn’t regret the breast augmentation that she also had around the same time.
4. Jamie Lee Curtis
After constantly being told she had puffy eyes, Jamie Lee Curtis decided to go under the knife and change their look. She’s also tried Botox, but was unsatisfied with the results in both cases. Nowadays, Curtis is a huge advocate of aging gracefully and has famously said, “Why do you want to look 17 when you’re 70? I want to look 70 when I’m 70.”
5. Heidi Montag
Years ago, people were shocked to find out that Heidi Montag underwent 10 procedures in a single day. Because of so many surgeries in a very short period of time, her health also suffered. “I wish I had waited and not made a decision so young because I have long-term health complications,” she admitted years later, adding, “Plastic surgery isn’t something that should be glorified. Take it seriously.”
6. Reid Ewing
Before rising to fame as part of the cast of the successful sitcom, Modern Family, Reid Ewing felt dissatisfied with his looks and thought that changing them would help his career as well. In total, Ewing had 8 cosmetic procedures and later came to regret all of them. “I wish I could go back and undo all the surgeries. Now I can see that I was fine to begin with and didn’t need the surgeries after all.”
7. Jane Fonda
Jane Fonda opened up about getting a facelift, but also added that she’s not proud of it. The actress also decided to never undergo plastic surgery again, scared that she would end up looking “distorted.” Since then, Fonda has preferred to take care of herself in a simpler and more natural manner. “I don’t spend a lot of money on face creams or anything like that, but I stay moisturized, I sleep, I move, I stay out of the sun, and I have good friends who make me laugh,” she said.
8. Bella Hadid
Last year, the supermodel finally cleared up plastic surgery rumors when she admitted to having had a nose job when she was only 14 years old. Hadid confessed that when she was a teenager, she felt very insecure about her looks, and being the younger sister of Gigi Hadid didn’t help that. However, she now thinks she could have learned to love the nose she was born with and regrets changing it.
9. Melissa Gilbert
The Little House on the Prairie star had a breast augmentation and a nose job, as well as some Botox and fillers. But in more recent years, Gilbert decided to remove her breast implants and embrace her natural looks instead. “I had my breast implants removed, and I’m no longer doing fillers or Botox because I’m a 53-year-old woman, and I’m trying to embrace this process of aging,” she said back in 2018.

Incredible Rescue: Hero Dog Saves Lives and Gets a Second Chance
Do you think canines can truly be heroes? Introducing Ivy, an 18-year-old terrier mix who showed that she possesses a brave and loving heart. When Ivy first arrived on June 2 at the Smith County Animal Shelter in Texas, she had no idea that her deeds would make her a true hero dog.
Dogs can donate blood to help those in need, just like people can. Because of her blood type, Ivy can donate blood to anyone, which makes her a priceless asset to the shelter. She generously gave blood, saving the lives of several canines in critical need of transfusions. Ivy is a dog who is certainly worth praising because of her bravery and compassion.
But in spite of her noble deeds, Ivy was put in a terrible predicament. She was in danger of dying since no one wanted to adopt her. That’s correct, this incredible hero dog was just a few minutes away from being put to sleep. It’s unbelievable that Ivy met with such a terrible end after sparing so many lives.
Nevertheless, Ivy’s story made it to the local news station CBS19 because of the perseverance and kindness of Pearl Wittholt, a volunteer with Saving Animals from Euthanasia in Texas. Pearl aspired to rescue Ivy’s life and give her the second chance she so richly earned with the help of the community and the media.
CBS19 has already volunteered to support a hero dog. They already told the tale of Stanford, a different blood-donating dog who met a similar end, earlier this year. The community came together to save Stanford, and he was adopted. Pearl believed that Ivy could experience the same thing.
And indeed, miracles do occur! The media attention paid off, as CBS19 revealed an encouraging update: Ivy had found her forever home. This brave dog was saved from death and given the opportunity to live out her last years in a loving home because of the amazing support of the community.
However, the tale is not over yet. Three more heroic canines are currently at the Smith County Animal Shelter, waiting for their permanent homes, as reported by CBS19. It’s our chance to prevent these courageous dogs from suffering the same destiny that Ivy just barely avoided. These dogs continue to save lives. Together, let’s think about giving these amazing heroes access to our homes and hearts.
There should never be a chance that a dog, particularly one who has saved so many lives, will be put down. The touching relationship people have with their animal companions is brought to light by Ivy’s narrative. She is safe and sound in her new home, which is nice, but more needs to be done.
Let’s tell everyone about this amazing news of Ivy’s second chance. By working together, we can improve the lives of these heroic canines and make sure they receive the affection and attention they need.
