Mickey Rourke has the reputation of being a Hollywood bad boy who initially gained fame for his rugged looks and tough guy roles.

In order to fight the effects of ageing and to rectify some minor facial injuries from a brief boxing career, he was willing to go under the knife for the sake of vanity and to prevent the visible signs of having sagging skin. Why do Hollywood celebrities keep doing it to themselves?

Sometimes these desperate measures to maintain their youthful looks can lead to some pretty awful results. His face has been wrecked. Actor Mickey Rourke is a prime example of this.

These days he just looks plain weird. The obvious signs of a facelift seem so apparent. He seems to have a permanent “happy/smiley” look about him compared to his former brooding, masculine looks.

    It appears that the plastic surgeon who botched the Kenny Rogers surgery committed the same atrocity on Rourke. Yuck.
