Remember when Renée Zellweger popped into the lime light and no one recognised her? Well, a medical doctor with a special interest in aesthetic and anti-ageing medicine at Skin Renewal in Johannesburg believes that Zellweger’s ‘transformation’ is a prime example of how change to prominent features of a person’s face can change the entire face, even to the point that the person is almost unrecognisable. The doctor’s name is Dr. Xen Ludick and he goes on, saying,
Her eyes, checks and jawline have definitely been altered. If I were a betting man, I would put money on cheek fillers, a surgical bleph, which is eyelid surgery that removes excess skin and fat, as well as jawline reshaping.
Although he says the Zellweger’s jawline was most probably done surgically, he believes that the changes to her face could be due to dermal fillers.
Zellweger has come forward and attributed her drastic change in appearance to ageing and lifestyle changes and there could be some truth to this too. When we age we do lose fat and volume in certain areas of the face, especially the cheeks and lips, and it does look like natural ageing also played a role in her ‘new look’.
While it is clear that there have been major changes to Zellwerger’s look, it is important to note that the actress does not look bad, she just looks incredibly different to the face we were so used to. Ludick strongly believes that if we didn’t know it was Renee Zellweger, we probably wouldn’t even notice anything specific about her appearance.
It is easy to lose sight of the objective of remaining healthy and presenting your age, rather than looking 20 when you are 50 – there is a fine line between aesthetic treatments that improve and distort the delicate facial appearance.
Skin Renewal has a team of medical Doctors who are fully qualified, trained and experienced to follow a holistic and conservative approach to Skin & Body Rejuvenation when treating patients with injectable treatments.
For an inexperienced practitioner it is easy to do too much, resulting in the patient looking completely different and unnatural – the objective is for people to just compliment on healthy and radiant skin, presenting fresh and youthful.
SkinRenewal does this by combining therapy based treatments for skin preparation, collagen stimulating, retexturing and resurfacing treatments, with Dr treatments of dermal fillers, botulinum toxin injections and a wide range of threads (ranging from lifting, fat reduction and collagen induction objectives).
Each patient must be the best version of themselves, and not look like someone else…
