man plastic surgery 4SOLVED!

[Blind Gossip] Despite the chatter at the SAG Awards, this fella did not have a face lift. However, we do know why he looks so different!

He did not have anything lifted or tucked or implanted. And his mouth has always looked that weird.

Our over-50 actor looks different because of his SKIN. He finally got rid of the acne scars and pockmarks that were part of his rough, trademarked look.

He has always been self-conscious about it. He had a combination of laser skin resurfacing and fillers. No Botox, though. He can still emote.

His face looks smoother and more even. That’s why he looks so different. No knives. Just lasers and needles.

It’s Ray Liotta!

Actor Ray Liotta – best known for films like Goodfellas and Field of Dreams – has always had a distinctive look. Dark hair, blue eyes, an oddly tight little smile… and craggy, pock-marked skin.

He was consistently Photoshopped in still photos (left) to smooth out the bumps, but the flaws were always apparent on film and on the red carpet.

His skin was so bad that a cosmetics company even used his face for a before-and-after ad for their skin treatment. (Note: That company was partly owned by Mike Shouhed of Shahs of Sunset.)

Liotta sued them and won, but the ad highlighted the fact that Liotta’s skin problem was the kind of cosmetic issue most people would want to eliminate.

After years of complaining about his skin, Liotta got some work done. When coupled with a bit of aging and some weight gain, his look today is a bit different.

Here he is at the 2016 Screen Actor’s Guild Awards with his daughter, Karsen.

Liotta’s face is definitely smoother. That’s fillers and resurfacing. However, he still has bags under his eyes, so he didn’t have an eyelift. He’s also fairly jowly, so there’s been no lower face lift. He still has those “11” lines between his eyes, so Botox is unlikely.

Liotta popped up again this week on British talk show, Good Morning Britain, and people freaked out because they thought he looked so different.

ray liotta sag 2016 2We think that the work looks pretty good. Until he smiles that tight little Ray Liotta smile. Then it gets weird. But, then again, Liotta has always had that menacing kind of look about him. That’s one of the things that makes him so creepy/interesting in all of his roles. When Ray Liotta is on screen, he owns the scene. As long as he maintains that quality, he’s going to work forever.

Congratulations to everyone who got this one right. Mere1012 was first! Kudos to those of you who caught the “fella” clue (for Goodfellas)!

    Ray Liotta

    He looks very different and I actually thought he had botox and maybe also a face lift. If he really just got rid of his scars it might look better and more natural once it settles in a bit more.
    I just hope this will not turn into a Jennifer Grey/Renée Zellweger situation. I always found him to be very interesting, unique and sexy.

    [Optional] Does you think he looks good? He still looks too plastic, even if that’s not twhat happened.

    just googled some pix and its definitely Ray Liotta. His skin isn’t THAT different, actually, still some obvious acne scars. But the scars never bothered me anyway, I think he looks fine.

    He looks alright, he’s in his 60’s after all, and at a certain age you have to cut people some slack, they can’t look like they’re in their 30’s though some try. Poor Sophia Loren, she should let herself look 80 instead of plumping her face out, it looks terrible.

    Yes, he looks good now. Still like himself just less craggy. I don’t think it’s too drastic.

    Clue: “fella” – Ray starred in the movie “Good Fellas”

    I think that his hairstyle made him look like John Gotti, which is fine if he is going for that look in a movie, but I think it aged him enormously.

    He looks way different which is bad for a known actor – ask Jennifer Gray! Maybe he should have done the transition more gradually.

    I thought he looked good. Lost some weight too, which helps you look younger.

    Ray Liotta. I thought he looked quite odd but that explanation makes sense! Too bad though, it was his look and he was still quite handsome.

  66. Mia444 says

    Ray Liotta. I never thought he was handsome, just not my type. And I doubt he’s losing any sleep over that fact, lol.

  84. proloz says

    Ray Liotta, and I think he looks sort of sinister. Like a cross between the grinch and the Joker.

    Can’t be Brad Pitt, because he obviously had his entire face reconstructed- with tragic results.
