The actress who played Monica Geller in "Friends" realized that over the years they began to show in her face and body, so she decided to take radical measures that she eventually regretted.
Courteney Cox is a well-known American film and television actress, remembered for starring in the popular series "Friends", in which she played, for a decade, Monica Geller, an obsessive and competitive woman, whose job as a professional chef made her living under intense pressure, the same one she felt when she realized that the years for her had passed.
Noticing the changes in her physique, the model also did not hesitate for a moment and she decided to undergo several surgeries with the sole purpose of keeping her young since she did not accept that she was maturing. However, after having undergone several operations, implants, and Botox, she recognized that nothing was going to be the same again and she chose to accept herself since, despite her efforts, nothing was the same when she looked in the mirror.
Next, we will tell you why this celebrity, born on June 15, 1964, and currently 57 years old, regrets having entered the operating room on several occasions.
WHEN COURTENEY COX REALIZED SHE WAS CHANGING
Courteney Cox's "ordeal" began when she realized that her face and body were changing, but since she did not want to accept that the passing of the years made her look older, she clung by any means to maintain her "eternal youth"
“There was a time when she would say: ‘I am changing. I look older. And I tried to pursue that youth for years, "said the television producer and film director during an interview with Sunday Times Style magazine.
And while she recognized that growing up over time was a part of life itself, the industry made it look complicated. “Getting old isn't the easiest, but Hollywood makes it harder. I think we have to accept it because there is no way to escape. I grew up thinking appearance was the most important thing and that's kind of sad because I got in trouble. I was trying so hard to keep up and I actually made things worse, ”she stated in 2017 in an interview for New Beauty.
IN SEARCH OF ETERNAL YOUTH
For this, Courteney Cox resorted to botox and facial fillers with various specialists. The bad thing was that every time she went to a new one, he recommended something different and she didn't hesitate to try it.
She "would go to a doctor and he'd say, 'You look great, but what would help is a little shot here or a filler,' so you go out there and you don't look so bad and you think no one will notice. So, someone tells you about another doctor who does an imperceptible treatment and you dare to go, and she tells you: 'You should do this'. The next thing you know, you're layered and layered and layered. You have no idea because it's gradual until you're like, 'This doesn't look good!'” she told New Beauty.
COURTENEY COX FELT LIKE IT WAS NOT HER ANYMORE AND STOPPED
Even though Courteney Cox was hell-bent on staying young at any cost, she realized it wasn't her anymore. “And I didn't realize that I actually looked really weird with injections and doing things to my face that I wouldn't do now. She had to stop. She was crazy,” she mentioned to Sunday Times Style.
After that, she decided to dissolve all the "fillers" of her to return to being natural. “I feel better because I look like myself. I think I look more like the person I used to be now. I have learned to embrace my fine lines or wrinkles and realize that fillers are not my friends,” she told New Beauty.
As a result of everything that has happened, Cox now feels a very confident and self-assured woman, accepting herself as she is. “There are still things that I'm not happy with, but now I work on them to accept them and change them if I can. And I think I've reached a point where it's easy for me to be comfortable with who I am, with the person I've become and who I aspire to be, ”she concluded in that same interview.
