- Jennifer Lawrence told Vogue she gets 'baby Botox' but limits it because she needs facial movement as a working actor: 'If my skin is going to be a little saggier than I would like, at least it looks dewy and pretty.'
- Lawrence said she wants a buccal fat removal but won't get one because 'everybody would know,' and called fat transfers something she's 'really nervous' about while still 'supporting other people' who do them.
- Lawrence said she likes radiofrequency treatments because she has 'huge cheeks' and wants to 'exercise them as much as possible.'
- Olivia Wilde, promoting her film 'The Invite,' told Vogue she is 'constantly searching for actresses who can still move their faces' as a director, calling the search 'not easy.'
- Wilde called the cosmetic-procedure pressure 'medieval' and described the impossible bind of being told she 'looks old and dead and awful' if she ages naturally.
- Lawrence returns to screens in a small role as Katniss Everdeen in November's 'Sunrise on the Reaping' and is set to co-star with Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese's 'What Happens at Night.'
Why it matters: For working actors and the directors who cast them, frozen faces are a casting problem, not just an aesthetic one — Lawrence explicitly ties her Botox restraint to her profession, and Wilde corroborates from the director's chair that finding expressive actresses is now hard. Lawrence's list of what she won't try publicly (buccal fat removal, fat transfers) reveals how visibility, not just risk, shapes which procedures celebrities will admit to.
