Gordon Ramsay Has Friendlier Chin, Thanks to Simon Cowell
Posted Tuesday 27 October 10:50 AM By: PopEater Staff
Gordon Ramsay's craggy face, with its furrowed brow and creased chin, has struck fear in the hearts of line cooks for years. But this year, there's something different about the chef's famous visage, namely a less-imperfect chin. The
'Hell's Kitchen' star told the Radio Times (via
BBC) that he underwent a cosmetic procedure on his jaw area earlier this year at the urging of one
Simon Cowell.
"My mother said they were smile lines. I could deal with that at 21, but not 42," he said. "Simon Cowell suggested now I'm a success in America, I should do something."
The procedure went well, but not without some pain: "I had a filler put under the deep crevices. It hurt."
Gwen Davies, of cosmetic surgery group Transform, told
The Sun that Ramsay will have to endure two or three of the chin-filling procedures every year to keep his smoother look.
"Vertical lines on the chin area are very aging," Davies said. "His were particularly prominent. The dermal filler will have literally 'filled in' and plumped out the crease."

Bruce Jenner (pictured with wife Kris) gave himself quite the present for his upcoming 60th birthday: a new face. "He corrected work that was done 25 years ago that he wasn't happy with," says his stepdaughter Kim Kardashian.

Wow, shocking that Gordon Ramsay cares enough about what other people think of his looks to go to a painful procedure.

Gordon Ramsey wanted it himself he didn't do for anyone else and I think Gordon knew that he needed to do it anyways and looks good doesn't look bad as some can.

Not all plastic surgery is to make other people think more of you. Some people do it for themselves. I don't agree with it, but I also don't think it's always a "oh what will people think of my wrinkles?! thing either. At least his work doesn't look horrible, surgeon was pretty good.

He also seems to be doing himself a huge favor by staying OUT of the sun/tanning bed. He looks years younger just from that alone.

This reminds me of the girl from "Dirty Dancing" Jennifer Grey. I would not even know who this was not if I passed him on the street. He looks like every other blond hollywood actor now.

Not an actor, a great chef top rated restaurants AND top television shows on 3 continents.
Obviously you have not watched ANY TV lately.

Really, you think reality shows are not acting??? I enjoyed your comment but the last thing I have time to do is sit around and watch more TV so I can see this jerk yelling at everyone. No thanks. I am sure he appreciates your loyalty. Have a great day.

There wasn't a darned thing wrong with his laugh lines to begin with. I'd say an attitude adjustment would go a long way, but he didn't need plastic surgery. Now I'll be looking at Simon trying to see what HE's had done. I'm just a little disappointed he fell for the Hollywood Cr*p. He looked like a fine, hardworking bloke.
