MAKE-UP OR SURGERY?

Celebrity watchers think they’ve spotted evidence that tennis star Serena Williams had a nose job while she was out of action recently for treatment of an injured foot.

That speculation was triggered by recent photos of her more stylish look, which makes her nose look a bit different — or possibly highlights a difference that a plastic surgeon created in the operating room. (For example, compare this month’s photo, above left, with the one from early July, above right).

“Serena Williams has decided to change her masculine figure and it looks like she started with her nose,” said the blog Why Fame.

Most every speculation on the subject comes with a disclaimer — perhaps the apparent change is just an effect of good makeup.

I’d add, perhaps also an effect of a different photo angle and different lighting.

“Was the new make-up contouring techniques which add the illusion of more defined facial features? Hard to tell!” said Why Fame.

The Daily Mail said, “The tennis star’s new look ignited a flurry of speculation online over whether she’d undergone a cosmetic procedure or if it was just an amazing makeover.

“Lots of celebrities use make-up contouring techniques to add the illusion of more defined facial features, so this may have been the case.”

The blog Soul of Beauty said, “Since it can’t be confirmed that Williams has had any cosmetic surgery to adjust the shape of her nose, we’ll just assume that she’s wearing makeup to make her nose appear more narrow.”

Has Heidi Montag undergone yet another plastic surgery?  

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: More Plastic Surgery For Heidi Montag?

In brand new photos exclusively obtained by RadarOnline.com the reality TV star is seen in in a bikini in Costa Rica wearing a strange bandage on her nose, complete with a splint, often used to protect a nose after rhinoplasty.

The photos were taken last Thursday, August 19, in Costa Rica, but only released today.   

After the photos hit the web,  Montag  released a statement to Life & Style magazine, explaining the tape.  Montag said, “Except for filming and a few photo shoots, I’ve had my nose tape on 24 hours a day since November. It takes a year for your nose to heal. This is just the first photo that anyone has seen of it.

“The last time I didn’t wear tape after surgery and my nose changed shape,” she said. “The tape is supposed to keep the swelling down and hold my nose in place the way Dr. Ryan sculpted it. Dr. Ryan always said I was his best, most cautious patient, and I’m not taking any chances now that he’s gone. I don’t want my face to fall off like Michael Jackson’s.”
