Lindsay Lohan's facial features are the talk of the Web, as many are beginning to question whether the young and gorgeous actress has had surgical work done despite the fact that she's just 23 years old. Did she go under the knife, or is it maturity and/or her hard-living lifestyle that's changed her looks. After the jump, a plastic surgeon weighs in.
Lindsay Lohan's looks of late are causing many -- including a plastic surgeon we spoke with -- to speculate that she's gotten plastic surgery enhancements on her face. Look at Lindsay Through the Years, And You Be the Judge >>>

"Lindsay appears to have undergone a lot of changes over the past several years," says Dr. Tony Youn, a practicing Board-Certified plastic surgeon who doesn't treat Lohan tells PopEater after seeing a variety of photos of the actress over the years. "While these photos are only years apart, she appears to have aged 15 years! Her skin shows signs of premature aging, with solar damage, pigmentary blemishes, fine wrinkles, and coarseness not typically seen in a person her age. Plus, her lips appear inflated to drastic proportions, resembling the 'trout pout' of some Hollywood celebrities," Youn tells PopEater. The "trout pout" has become slang terminology for when one gets lip injections that cause extreme puffiness and a massive change in the face's look.
Youn, who also runs a celebrity-related plastic surgery blog, tells PopEater that Lohan's drastic physical changes "are dramatic and severe for someone her age," and that her hard-living lifestyle could also have adverse effects on her looks and complexion.
"Drug and alcohol abuse are second only to sun abuse in causing premature aging," Youn tells PopEater. "These items can dehydrate the skin, cause fine and coarse wrinkles, and even cause the face to look more gaunt. Smoking is the worst of all. "
Britain's Daily Mail says that the 23-year-old starlet "appears to be tampering with her looks like an aging actress worried she won't get any more roles." The newspaper goes on to cite "her puffy face and crow's feet" as features that seem to have changed in recent months. Celebrity blog LimeLife agrees, saying Lohan likely "got injections in her lips, around her mouth, and near her eyes/forehead very recently."
Lohan's career has been an erratic roller coaster ride of both positive and negative since she burst onto the scene as an adorable child actress in 1998's 'The Parent Trap.' Her career and fame only grew from there, as she scored posh roles in movies like 'Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen' and 'Mean Girls,' propelling her into Hollywood's A-list at a very young age.
It was Lohan's post-'Mean Girls' years that turned detrimental to the star. She quickly gained a reputation as a Hollywood party girl, and rumors that her fast lifestyle was affecting her work ran rampant. In 2006, industry bigwig James G. Robinson -- whose firm wrote 'Georgia Rule,' which Lohan was working on -- wrote an open letter to Lohan directed at her behavior and work ethic. After Lohan cited exhaustion for her tardiness and inability to work, Robinson wrote: "We are well aware that your ongoing all night heavy partying is the real reason for your so called 'exhaustion.'"
2007 was a turning point for Lohan. That year, she checked into rehab on two separate occasions, and in the summer, was arrested twice for drunk driving -- once with cocaine possession charges added on.
Since that troubled summer, Lohan's career has never quite recovered to its past glory. She's had roles in the less-than-successful films 'I Know Who Killed Me,' as well as the straight-to-DVD 'Labor Pains.'

"My stomach became the most ripply, bulgy thing. I had a hernia, this huge bump next to my bellybutton. As a result, I couldn't wear a bikini. I lost a lot of work," Tara Reid said of her botched plastic surgery.

"I saw a picture of myself and thought, 'Uh-oh.' You have to be careful. I'm a perfect example of that! There are many things you can do to make yourself look better," Lisa Rinna says of her plastic surgery.
i don't know weather it's plastic surgery or drugs...and frankly i could care less...but regardless of that she looks horrible now at one time she looked good...but it ain't today and i doubt that it will be tommarrow.
Not only does Lindsay look like her lips are over plumped but she looks high too. Hanging out with Donatella Versace, I'm sure they are using a lot of cocaine! Donatella is known for her coke addiction1 Get your act together Lindsay!!!
WTF has Lindsay donw to herself her face looks like that of a bloated old hag. she should have repaired her nose from all the "powder" abuse over the years and not touched her face. She really looks.... vomits
Poor little lost girl...the last ten years,with the increase of the paparazzi and media hounds and constant being in the lime light...Ive noticed that so many celebs especially the younger ones just cant handle the pressure and just are buckling under...theres allot that handle it with grace and have no problems...but so many are self destructing...and Lohan id the perfect example...we all watched Britney take the slide,and saw her family step in and save her...and hopefully Lindsey's will do the same...before its too late and we read about a tragic ending to a once bright and shinning star...
DRUGS AND HARD PARTYING WILL MAKE YOU LOOK OLD!!! SHE LOOKS TO BE ABOUT 30 AND THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE FACTTHAT SHE IS ALWAYS HIGH AND ALWAYS PARTING! HER PARENTS ARE TOO STUPID TO STOP HER SOMEBODY ELSE NEEDS TO SOON BEFORE SHE DIES
30? Try more like 40. I'm 32 and I look years younger than Lindsay!
To Kurt, I agree with you to a point, the photogs are out of control, but it's the celebs that tip them off where they're going to be. I have no sympathy for the celebs that boo hoo about it. The smart celebs don't go to photog invested places like Robertson Blvd, Ivy and the list goes on. They avoid those places at all cost. You don't see George Clooney, Brad Pit, Angelina Jolie going to places. They have their pics taken once and while. They're smart. They know how to handle the photogs.
Lindsay can you please kill yourself quicker??....Please!?!?!?....You're "acting" career was laughable at best, and now you're not even the least bit hot, due to many, many nights of booze/coke binges....you look like a typical 40 yr old long island coke/pill whore!...Please die soon!
Lindsay is looking a bit older... I bet it has to do with all the partying she did and still does. I actually feel sorry for her. I hope she keeps save and finds peace within herself.. it's really sad.
As an ex substance abuser...there's an old saying"It takes one to know one"...and geeze...i look at all the more recent pics of her especially all the ones of her with blond hair...and yes,she's totally high on drugs...you can see it in her eyes and even with shades on you can just tell by her expression...i think cocaine and pills...probably alcohol too....not a good combo and could easily accidentally over dose...well hope she gets help,gets clean and sober,gets on the right path,and doesn't end up as just another young Hollywood tragedy that we see happening more and more
Alcohol is the culprit. It is the only drug that effects every organ in a human body including the skin. I have seen beautiful women that are unrecognizable after 5 years of alcohol abuse. Keep her in your thoughts and prayers. She is suffering.
Look, for Ms Lohan to get her appeal back, she needs to dump the "lesbo" routine and the dude, errgh gal, errgh dude without a penis, and get back to what comes natural, find her a real man with a real penis and she'll get her MOJO back....the "I think I'll become a lesbian" act obviously didn't work, Lindsey, come back to your firt love, real meat
Who cares about this washed up whore? And don't get all cute and righteous and say, "well why did you comment if you don't care?". That's just infantile. You KNOW what I mean.
She was never a great beauty to begin with. Fake make up lined eyes and fake lips. Too pointy of a nose, thin lips and bad skin. The only thing unique about her is her long hair and that's probably fake. She's no great beauty to begin with so who cares. She is very average without her ton of makeup.

I don't like the puffy lips. Definitely not natural.

Ms. Lohan is an immoral train wreck, and I do not admire her looks: she is very common looking. I also do not think she has any acting ability.

She has a face ? Her poorly maintained twat has been viewed online more in the last two than her face; can she get that redone ?
