The 84-year-old movie legend Jane Fonda has disclosed her decision to refrain from further cosmetic surgery.
Fonda, who expressed remorse for undergoing a facelift in an interview with Vogue, emphasized the significance of good genes and good health as one ages.
She remarked:
‘We all know a lot of women who are wealthy who’ve had all kinds of facelifts and things like that and they look terrible.
‘I had a facelift and I stopped because I don’t want to look distorted. I’m not proud of the fact that I had one.
‘Now, I don’t know if I had it to do over if I would do it. But I did it. I admit it, and then I just say, okay, you can get addicted. Don’t keep doing it. A lot of women, I don’t know, they’re addicted to it.’
The Oscar-winning actress further unveiled her simplified beauty routine, having completely relinquished cosmetic procedures in 2020.
Fonda added;
‘I want young people to stop being afraid about getting older. What matters isn’t age, isn’t that chronological number. What matters is your health.
‘I’m almost 85, but I don’t seem that old, so getting young people to stop being afraid of being old, helping people realise that just because you’re a certain age doesn’t mean you have to give up on life…
‘I stay moisturised, I sleep, I move, I stay out of the sun, and I have good friends who make me laugh. Laughter is a good thing too.”
Fonda, who grappled with bulimia from childhood until her 40s, expressed that she has only recently become more accepting of herself and her body.
A staple figure in the glamorous world of entertainment for decades, the Grace and Frankie star emphasized that she ensures fans witness the genuine version of her by sharing makeup-free and “haggard” snapshots on social media.
