Even in this image, which has probably been manipulated to make her look older, she still seems to have aged better than the distorted faces of some others who probably spent hundreds of thousands on cosmetic surgery. She's about the same age as Bezos' wife for a point of comparison.

the wife looks like an alien, with that freakish large smile.

My theory is that ~~like in many areas of their life~~ celebrities lack foresight about their facial features. Plastic surgery does not change to accommodate their aging face like their natural skin would.

Scar tissue behaves weirdly. Also, if you do it once at 35, you'll probably do it twice at 40, thrice at 45, and never stop trying to get back to something that can't exist anymore.

Yup.

Scar tissue is actually fascinating-- did you know it's not made of cells? It's just a protein (collagen) that your body maintains (unless you don't have enough vitamin C-- see also Scurvy).
