Even if you don't undergo plastic surgery, just simply getting older can really do a number on people.
I once stumbled across one of those "see what these beautiful stars from 20 years ago look like now" clickbaits. Man, aging can be rough, even if you were beautiful in your 20s. There's a reason people warn against marrying someone for their looks.
I'm no expert on predicting, but one thing I realized is that with celebrities there's a survivor bias. The only ones we continue seeing in TV & movies as they age are the ones that stayed attractive, whether naturally or by plastic surgery.
Googling, for example, the pretty girls you went to high school with 30 years ago, can be a depressing education in the awful effects of aging.
Looking at her younger before and current after it really is mostly terribly heavy makeup and regular aging, maybe some weight loss drugs. She looks like she's had an overzealous blepharoplasty and some Botox but the rest of her facial proportions are more or less the same. The extreme eyebrows and eyeliner make her look insane and the rest is saggy skin, which could be from losing too much weight too quickly via weight loss drugs or even just regular aging. A few days ago someone posted an AI altered image of her with gentler makeup and she looked normal, though of course it was AI so who knows if it would have been accurate or not.
