100 plastic surgery

Beaches star Barbara Hershey recently broke up with Lost star Naveen Andrews, 21-years her junior. 62-year old Barbara Hershey isn’t the big screen diva she once was, but she still looks the same as ever, if a little more plasticized. The brown-haired beauty has admitted to using collagen injections in her lips in the late 1980s, shortly before Beaches. Since then, it seems that Barbara has continued to use fillers, despite criticism from fans and experts, as her face looks consistently full and plastic.

Board certified Manhattan plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer says, “Barbara Hersey does look like she has had fillers – the prolonged effect of them may be due to products such a silicone.  However, it is hard to tell.  If she had silicone or some other permanent filler, it is very difficult if not impossible to remove.  Time will tell.”
In addition to fillers, Barbara may also have had a facelift, giving her a slightly tight look.

Dr. Paul S. Nassif, a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon and a rhinoplasty specialist in Beverly Hills, California, says, “Barbara Hershey appears to have had a facelift, along with Botox and facial fillers. The facelift has given her face a slightly tight appearance. She may have had filler injected into her lips as well.”

Miami plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer says, “Barbara Hershey’s lips seem disproportionately large and full for her face.  Her forehead is remarkably smooth, presumably from Botox Injections.”

While Barbara hasn’t been doing mainstream films, she spends quite a bit of time in front of the camera, with her youthful face, and fans can look forward to Black Swan, out later this year.

Has Barbara Hershey Had Cosmetic Surgery?

Barbara Hershey was born Barbara Herzstein on February 5, 1948, in Hollywood, California, to Arnold Norman, a horse-racing columnist and Melrose Herzstein.

Barbara was lanky, thin, and painfully shy, although by the age of ten she distinguished herself as an “A” student.

She was very quiet; many assumed she was deaf. She was given the name Sarah Bernhardt because of her dramatic performances in the backyard.

Did Barbara Hershey have plastic surgery?
The Chicago Tribune referred to Hershey as “one of America’s finest actresses.”

She earned an Emmy and a Golden Globe award for her role in a mini series entitled A Small Town In Miami and an Academy Award nomination for Portrait of a Lady.

Additionally, she won an award for her performance in Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ for her portrayal of Mary Magdalene.

She won Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival for her role in Shy People.
Hershey was featured in Woody Allen’s Hannah and Her Sisters and many other less memorable films, television movies, and several television series.

It is aptly stated and validated to be true that Hershey is a “great little actress, not just a pretty face”. However, she did not attain professional acclaim, recognition for her gift, or success until after almost twenty years into her career had passed.
Did She Have Cosmetic Surgery?

In the movie, Beaches Barbara’s cosmetically augmented, lush, and full lips stole the show. Comedian Steve Harvey referred to her as “that little big lipped girl”.

Erma Brombeck stated in an article: “I have no idea what ‘Beaches‘ was all about. All I could focus on was Barbara Hershey’s lips. She looked like she stopped off at a gas station and someone said, ‘your lips are down 30 pounds. Better let me hit ‘em with some air.’”

Barbara admits that she received collagen injections for her role in “Beaches” and not as part of any longer term or permanent cosmetic enhancement.  Her lips returned to normal soon afterwards.
Like other famous actors and actresses (see Bethenny Frankel and Kim Kardashian plastic surgery), it has been reported that she has received several touch-ups over the years.

Barbara Hershey’s Plastic Surgery After Break-Up

It was reported that Barbara Hershey had an extensive face lift after her relationship with her significant other, Naveen Andrews, was severed or terminated in May 2010.

They were in a committed relationship for 12 years. Although Naveen was twenty-one years younger than Hershey, in photographs, they looked almost the same age. This was suggested that Hershey’s perpetual youth may have been the result of her use of rejuvenation procedures such as fillers to provide her with a smooth, shiny, creaseless, sculptured looking forehead, and wrinkle free face.

Some say the skin on her face is unnaturally taut and has an eerie plastic appearance.

One doctor from Manhattan, who has not personally treated Barbara Hershey himself alleges and unequivocally believes that she may have recently undergone a major face-lift in order to look younger after her breakup with Naveen and for the role of Natalie Portman’s mom in Black Swan.

Her look could have conceivably influenced movie decision makers to decide in her favor.

The Oscar nominated movie, Black Swan was released earlier this year. The movie was excellent but the Hershey’s look left some wondering whether it is an example of plastic surgery gone bad as the “after” result left a lot to be desired; it looked a bit unnatural and ‘plastic’.  Kenny Rogers’ cosmetic surgery falls into the same category.
Sheyla Hershey the plastic surgery addict with the world’s largest breasts is in the fight of her life after developing a life-threatening staph infection following yet another breast enhancement in June.

After more than 30 cosmetic overhauls, Hershey suffered her first complication following her most recent breast augmentation procedure  which took her bust to a 38 KKK last month. The Brazilian-born model, who now resides in Houston, was left bedridden and struggling to breathe after the June procedure. A severe staph infection reached both of Hershey’s breasts and doctors have ordered surgery to remove the implants, and possibly one of her breasts.

Sheyla, who is fluent in five languages Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and English, has been ill in the days leading up to her surgery: “I had a large fever and it was painful (after last month’s operation). I just couldn’t breathe properly, it was terrible. I was in bed all day, couldn’t get up.”

Her surgeon is concerned that the infection could leak into her bloodstream, which would likely prove fatal.

In the wake of this medical emergency, the blonde says she is trying to work through her obsession with plastic surgery for the sake of her young son, who has asked her to reduce her
