We can only hope that the former professional boxer-turned-actor Mickey Rourke kicked his surgeon’s hindquarters for mutilating his face so completely that he is scarcely recognizable from his sex-symbol days and the lead in sexually-charged films like 9 1/2 Weeks. I actually saw in person one day as he dined at an exclusive Chinese restaurant on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills last year and he looked like someone dipped his face in battery acid.
Plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn says on his blog: “Notice how his sideburns appear obliterated. This is a telltale sign of a facelift. The skin of the face is pulled back so far that the skin with the sideburns is removed during the surgery. This is one of the things that most plastic surgeons attempt to avoid with their facelifts.” In addition to a bad facelift, he is also rumored to have had a chin implant and cheek implants. He has also had several rhinoplasties to combat his nose that was broken in a failed boxing career. His odd appearance goes along with his odd behavior, like chopping off part of his own pinky finger.
