EBN– International star Nicole Kidman has sparked controversy over her undergoing plastic surgery on her ear, as social media users have indicated that the 57-year-old star’s earlobe, which appears to be “extending” towards her face, may have been the result of a plastic surgery procedure, according to the Daily Mail.
According to plastic surgeon Mark Solomos, who appears in the documentary The Price of Perfection, Nicole’s ears resemble “bat ears” or “fairy ears,” but she’s not the only star to suffer from this problem. Tom Cruise, Katie Price, and Demi Moore have also suffered from “bat ears” due to alleged plastic surgery .
“The effect occurs when the earlobe is pulled down, often revealing a facelift,” Mark said, adding that the problem “is usually the result of poor surgical technique.
“ Facelifts were previously considered a surgical procedure for women in their 50s and above, but they are now more widely discussed and accepted. In fact, there is a growing trend among individuals in their 40s to opt for facelifts,” the expert added.
“In addition, as public awareness of cosmetic surgery increases, so does the ability to recognize the signs of a facelift, especially among celebrities,” Mark continued.
The expert explained the reasons behind the appearance of “pixie ears”, saying: “In the ideal facelift, the deep structures in the face are tightened, allowing the skin to sit naturally without excessive tension. If this process is not done correctly, the earlobes can move , creating the effect of pixie ears.
