KIM NOVAK

As a leading box-office attraction of the 1950s, perhaps the last of the sex goddesses produced by the Hollywood star system, Kim Novak is widely known for her performance in Alfred Hitchcock’s thriller Vertigo (1958) with James Stewart. To everyone’s surprise, Novak permanently retired from acting after a disappointing experience during the filming of Liebestraum in 1991, saying she had no desire to return. However, at the age of 81, she made a rare and shocking appearance at the Oscars and was slurring words with her once exquisite face seemingly ravaged by cosmetic surgery gone bad.

Novak was one of the most beautiful faces in the 50s. Now, she has one of the most controversial plastic surgery fails of all time. It is not only too obvious that she had one just by one look; it is a disastrous change to her flawless face as well. Novak probably thought she was making an investment in her career when she made this terrible decision. However, there are still ways she can redeem herself and fix her face back to the one the world knew and loved.
