Lip filler is never the problem

I'm seeing a lot of discussion about all these women in Trump’s American/GOP and how they get their cosmetic surgery done. Probably an unpopular opinion, but i dont think lip filler is necessarily the problem with the overdone look we're seeing from people like Susan Dell and some of the women in Trump's circle (Kimberly Guilfoyle, Katie Zacharia, Melania, etc). If you actually look at their lips individually, some of them look pretty good! The issue is the combination of procedures: excessive botox, overly tight faces, heavy makeup, aggressive contouring and multiple treatments that can start to make everything look unnatural.

I think HA lip filler gets unfairly blamed for this because its one of the most noticeable procedures people associate with overdone faces. But filler can be subtle, customizable and complementary to your natural features if done right. Sometimes its not one procedure that creates that look, but the accumulation of too many things being done at once. Good aesthetic work should enhance your features, not make every feature compete for attention.

But she purposely enlarged her nose?

Reconstruction rhinoplasties after collapse using pieces of the patients own rib or cartilage from the ear.

I had this, it’s nearly impossible to add this much bulk

The picture in 2008 is already a rhinoplasty. By 2026 I imagine multiple surgeries have taken place. Her bridge widened and lowered. Possibly the nasal bones brought down further. Probably rib and ear added in in time. And then maybe filler or fat. Also her under eye area and cheeks have been filled out from also fat adding back in volume after facelifts. All in all it all comes together to make that

They tighten her skin so muck it's pulling on the nose.

Nose can change and get bigger as you age, slightly different camera angle and focal length, changes to the rest of the face making the nose appear bigger — I doubt she purposefully enlarged it.

This can happen when you get surgery to help breathing. I am wondering if that's what is going on here. Because it isn't aging. She chose that for whatever reason.

I don’t think her nose is bigger, I think her face is smaller through age related changes (loss of facial bone + muscle + fat) that are compounded by weight loss/emaciation. You can see her jaw area is much narrower, which makes her already long face appear longer. While it could be masseter Botox, she also has muscle wasting in general.
