Help me out, something's very different about Monson's face in these pictures. If you scroll down to the one under the heading "Visual Acuity" and zoom in on your browser, his face looks like he's either had skin resurfacing or botox. In the pictures when he was younger, he has lines across his forehead. But the one where's he's much older, the forehead lines are gone and his face looks painted on.

Notice that in the younger picture he has puffiness under his eyes. In the older one, his under-eyes are stretched out and the puffiness is gone. Just like when you get plastic surgery around your eyes.

Nah. It's just the lighting, and the photographer might have Photoshopped it a bit. If you go to the third one down you can still see the lines.

Never underestimate the power of lighting.

Looks like they brightened the teeth and put some color in his cheeks and lips.

I saw that picture before and wondered if it was plastic surgery or just photoshop. =)

I think its just been airbrushed or photoshopped. Not to change the subject, but the picture of Jesus? Have you ever noticed there aren't any male angels in the background? Why do you think that is?

Perhaps he is using propofol.

In addition to making a person sleep much better, it is also known to cause people to become white, delightsome, and dead.

Looks like he has had a blepharoplasty (eyelids)

I believe that's considered a necessary medical procedure that would be covered by medical insurance. I could see someone who might not otherwise consider cosmetic surgery getting that done.

My dad had it done because his eyelids were drooping so much that he couldn't see very well. It worked wonders for him. I'm afraid a few of my siblings will probably have to have it done.

I wouldn't put anything past Monson--I mean HE DYES HIS HAIR what is it ORANGE? Get a grip on aging gracefully.

Quite frankly, he looks dead.

Sorry, I just had to say it.

on his buttocks. He wanted to look good for his pictorial in the "Mo-Cheeks" calendar. He's Mr. January.
