Simon Cowell Spent Only $2700 on a Facelift

Simon Cowell is known for being a music mogul as well as a judge on “American Idol” and “America’s Got Talent”. He is also known for trying his best to stay youthful looking for his TV shows as well as duirng interviews and his other public appearances.

The latest effort by the 58-year-old judge to look young involved a visit to Dr. Jean-Louis Sebagh. Sebagh, who has treated celebrities in the past such as Cindy Crawford, Kylie Minogue and Elle Macpherson, is known as the “Picasso of dermatology”. The doctor performs what is referred to as a 21st century facelift and it is called a Silhouette Soft Lift, The surgery involves sewing bioplastic-infused thread into the face and neck. Once the thread is sewed into the face and neck, the doctor tugs on it to get rid of any sagging skin.

Unlike other celebrities, Simon Cowell has admitted to undergoing procedures such as Botox and filler injections in the past. After looking very puffy with the appearance of his face and chin, The Sun newspaper in London asked him about having cosmetic surgery done on his appearance.

Did Simon Cowell Admit to a Facelift?

Simon Cowell told the newspaper that he had the $27,000 Silhouette Soft Lift to remove sagging skin and to also smooth out wrinkles that had been caused over the years by sun damage.

Cowell said, “There’s lots of things you can do now. You don’t just have to stuff your face with filler and Botox. It hurts like hell but it gets rid of sun damage and unplugs all the crap. For me now, it’s all about having clean skin. If you have clean skin, you look better. But you have to be very careful with some of this stuff.”

Simon Cowell is trying to be more careful with treatments that impact his appearance. Just two years ago, he admitted to having too much Botox after TV viewers commented on the facial bruising and puffy eyes on his face. His excuse for having so much Botox was “everyone on TV has it”.

A Youth Oriented Business

Reality TV star Simon Cowell has admitted that his obsession with looking younger is due to the fact that show business is an industry that tends to focus on youth.

When speaking to The Sun, he added, “I’m a sucker for reading about something out there and believing it will work. Once in L.A., years ago, I met this girl who would wrap me up in cling film and then tin foil, after covering me in oils. It was meant to be detoxing. She then put me in this tube in my house, locked me into it for an hour…After about two months I realized this is actually torture. That was crazy.”

In order to maintain a more youthful and vital appearance, on a regular basis Simon Cowell has Botox injections, facials, fillers and other cosmetic procedures. Plus, he admits to daily vitamin injections, a regular exercise routine and several hundred push-ups on a daily basis.

Did Simon Cowell have a Traditional Facelift?

Plastic surgery experts are divided on the opinion of whether or not Simon Cowell has gone under the knife for a traditional facelift.

A facelift treats visible signs of aging such as folds, wrinkles and excess sagging skin throughout the face and the neck. A facelift can be classified as treating three sections of the face and these three sections include the upper third, middle third and lower third. A facelift treatment on the upper third addresses the area that is located between the hairline and the bridge of the nose (at the brow). The middle third is the area that runs from the brow area to the base of the nose. The lower third follows a line that runs from the base of the nose to the chin and neck area. A facelift plastic surgery treatment rejuvenates the facial region through the removal of excess skin as well as the lifting of the skin, muscles and fat pad into a better position.

As mentioned above, Simon Cowell has admitted to having Botox in order to temporarily freeze the facial muscles to minimize fine lines and wrinkles. In fact, Simon Cowell is such a fan of Botox that he has admitted to regularly giving others on his show vouchers for Botox treatments as a Christmas gift.

The only way anyone might know for sure about Simon Cowell and a possible traditional facelift is if, and when, he decides to share any news about undergoing that type of surgery with the public. Until he does decide to share any news about having a traditional facelift with the public, his fans will simply have to keep guessing about Simon Cowell plastic surgery procedures.
