Prominent transgender medical activists are up in arms over the American Society of Plastic Surgeons’ recommendation that children under 19 not have body parts surgically removed to treat gender confusion.
The ASPS left no uncertainty on its position on gender surgery for minors in its February 3 policy <a href="https://www.plasticsurgery.org/documents/health-policy/positions/2026-gender-surgery-children-adolescents.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>, which recommends “surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old.”
A group of only seven individuals, who identified themselves as “Concerned members of the ASPS Gender Surgery Task Force,” <a href="https://acaps-prri.informz.net/acaps-prri/data/images/Open_Letter_to_the_Board_of_the_American_Society_of_Plastic_Surgeons.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed an open letter</a> to the ASPS demanding the organization provide clarifying information about the gender surgery statement, including its authors’ names, how it was developed, and if the board considered the “areas of emerging consensus” being reached by the task force.
“Clarification of the process used in developing this position statement is necessary to ensure transparency, accountability, and confidence in ASPS governance,” the letter reads.
Signatories of the letter include leaders of the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH), a leading force pushing transgender procedures for minors. That includes WPATH president Asa Radix, MD, President-Elect Loren Schechter, MD, and board of directors member Scott Leibowitz, MD, who expected the “Gender Surgery Task Force” to “inform future ASPS statements or policy positions,” according to the letter.
&#8220;Let&#8217;s be clear: this is not a serious response from unbiased plastic surgeons,” Dr. Kurt Miceli, Medical Director at Do No Harm, told The Daily Wire. “This is a malicious attempt by WPATH activists to sow mistrust in ASPS&#8217;s meticulous and well-supported position statement on pediatric sex-rejecting procedures.”
“Their objections amount to little more than procedural complaints and never grapple with the substance of ASPS’s new position statement. This coordinated pushback should be recognized for what it is: unfounded and politically driven,&#8221; Miceli added.
The Daily Wire first reviewed the letter after it was obtained by Do No Harm. The ASPS told The Daily Wire the letter is based on a &#8220;series of misunderstandings.”
“It is important to note that the letter is based on a series of misunderstandings, which ASPS is in the process of clarifying for its members,” the group said.
WPATH is an activist medical organization that promotes discredited <a href="https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2025-11/gender-dysphoria-report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">science</a> that is heavily reliant on medical consensus, rather than scientific evidence.
When deciding what would be included in its clinical guidance, WPATH members <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8299905/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">created consensus</a> among its members by anonymously voting if they agreed or disagreed with proposed clinical recommendation statements, according to its <a href="https://wpath.org/publications/soc8/methodology/#delphi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>.
The open letter described how a similar process was being used by the “Gender Surgery Task Force” to find areas of “emerging consensus,” noting the task force was “actively working towards a summary intended to inform Board-level deliberation regarding any Society position or policy statement.”
Both the <a href="https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20250310143933/https://cass.independent-review.uk/home/publications/final-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cass Review</a> and the Department of Health and Human Services report on the treatment of gender dysphoria note that pediatric gender medicine guidelines rely heavily on medical consensus amongst like-minded professionals, rather than strong evidence.
“Many internationally influential guidelines, including those from WPATH, the Endocrine Society, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, have been criticized for substantial methodological shortcomings and inadequately managed conflicts of interest, resulting in recommendations not reliably supported by rigorous evidence,” the <a href="https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2025-11/gender-dysphoria-report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HHS report</a> says.
“This pattern of circular referencing and mutual endorsement among these guidelines further compromises their credibility and has likely perpetuated a perceived consensus in pediatric gender medicine that belies the actual paucity of high-quality evidence,” the report reads.
The ASPS statement cited several comprehensive evidence reviews, including the HHS <a href="https://opa.hhs.gov/gender-dysphoria-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a>, showing a departure from the consensus model adopted by many medical organizations.
WPATH did not immediately respond to The Daily Wire’s request for comment.

A new $2 million verdict indicates that the “transitioning” of children in America is dying or dead.
If you go back just a few years, it was de rigueur for every major commentator and every major politician to say that boys or girls could become one another.
Major medical establishment organizations claimed that it was the purest form of science to say that boys could become girls, and in fact, the best treatment for people suffering from gender dysphoria was for them to have hormone treatment and surgery.
In 2021, the American Medical Association was <a href="https://www.ama-assn.org/press-center/ama-press-releases/ama-states-stop-interfering-health-care-transgender-children">telling governors</a> to oppose state legislation that would prohibit “medically necessary” gender transition-related care for minor patients, calling such efforts “a dangerous intrusion into the practice of medicine.”
That, of course, was not relegated only to psychological care or social transition, or even to hormones. It also included, on many occasions, surgery. 
In fact, the AMA specifically <a href="https://www.ama-assn.org/press-center/ama-press-releases/ama-states-stop-interfering-health-care-transgender-children">put out a letter</a> stating:
<blockquote>Empirical evidence has demonstrated that trans and non-binary gender identities are normal variations of human identity and expression for gender diverse individuals. Standards of care and accepted medically necessary services that affirm gender or treat gender dysphoria may include mental health counseling, non-medical social transition, gender affirming hormone therapy, and or gender affirming surgeries. 
</blockquote>
This was the standard of care, according to the American Medical Association.
It was a load of horsesh*t.
If you ever wonder about the signal moments in the last 30 years of American history in which people fell out of love with institutions and decided that institutions had betrayed their trust — this was a big one.
There have been many, including the coverage of Biden&#8217;s mental health issues, education, Critical Race Theory, scientific organizations, and COVID.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-2361-transing-of-children-in-america-is-dead"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-981859 size-full" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/10/ben-banner.avif" alt="" width="1024" height="171" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/10/ben-banner.avif 1024w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/10/ben-banner-300x50.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/10/ben-banner-768x128.jpg 768w" sizes=" (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a>
But the biggest one was likely this — a lie that everyone above the age of one and a half knew was a lie — which was to deny that boys and girls aren&#8217;t the same. The medical establishment said that boys could become girls, girls could become boys, and the best treatment for someone who was struggling with body dysmorphia was not to work on their mental health, but to surgically alter their body by cutting off healthy body parts, by creating fake new body parts.
This was insanity. It was pathological. It was nuts.
But it became de rigueur.
The fact that Democrats are still struggling with this shows how out of touch they remain with reality.
So what finally broke the system? As always in America, trial lawyers.
The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/03/health/gender-surgery-malpractice-varian.html">reported:</a> “In the first malpractice verdict against providers of gender-affirming care for minors —&#8221;
Stop right there. That well-known language is insane. “Gender-affirming” is sex-rejecting. That’s what “gender-affirming” means in this context.
We are not talking about a woman who had a double mastectomy because she had breast cancer or the BRCA gene, and decided to have that double mastectomy, and now wants to reconstruct her breasts. That would be gender-affirming.
Gender affirming in this context means sex-denying. A boy believes he&#8217;s a girl, so they cut off his penis and testicles. That is what they mean.
Back to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/03/health/gender-surgery-malpractice-varian.html">the piece</a>:
<blockquote>In the first malpractice verdict against providers of gender-affirming care for minors, a jury in New York State has awarded a woman $2 million in damages for a double mastectomy she received as a teenager that she said had left her disfigured.</blockquote>
Obviously, it left her disfigured. That’s a reality when you have your breasts cut off, not because you&#8217;re worried that you&#8217;re going to get breast cancer or for any other real medical reason, but because you say you want to look more like a boy.
<blockquote>The plaintiff, Fox Varian, 22, of Yorktown Heights, had accused her psychologist and the plastic surgeon who performed the operation of failing to obtain adequate consent about the risks before she agreed to undergo the procedure in 2019. She also claimed that the providers had deviated from standard practices governing gender-related medical care. Ms. Varian, who was 16 at the time of the surgery, was assigned female at birth but as a teenager identified as a man.</blockquote>
Legacy media verbiage that is totally psychotic. “Assigned female at birth?”
You are not assigned anything. A doctor looks at you and knows you are female by looking at you when you are a baby.
This woman later came to regret the decision to transition and returned to being a woman in accordance with her actual biology, an example of a process known as detransitioning, or what some people might call “recognition of reality.”
Very often, when people cite studies suggesting that people don&#8217;t really detransition, that is because the studies do not include people who don&#8217;t follow up with the doctor. The vast majority of people who decide that they don&#8217;t want to carry forward with their “gender transition” never get back in touch with the people who were trying to transition them in the first place.
Thus, the continued pressure tactics are used by people in this industry.
The Times continued:
<blockquote>According to Kinnon MacKinnon, who studies transgender care at York University in Toronto, a vast majority of young people who opt for a medical transition say the procedure resolves their gender dysphoria and improves the quality of their lives.</blockquote>
Do you think they&#8217;re coming back to Kinnon MacKinnon to explain that things went badly? That’s not the way that this works. 
So why do I say this verdict means that the transition of children in America is dying or dead? Because plastic surgeons now find themselves at risk of medical liability for doing something that is clearly non-medical, such as cutting off healthy body parts, doctors are going to stop doing it.
On Tuesday, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons <a href="https://www.plasticsurgery.org/for-medical-professionals/health-policy/position-statements">put out a statement</a> saying:
<blockquote>Consistent with ASPS’s August 2024 statement that the overall evidence base for gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions is low certainty, and in light of recent publications reporting very low/low certainty of evidence regarding mental health outcomes, along with emerging concerns about potential long-term harms and the irreversible nature of surgical interventions in a developmentally vulnerable population, ASPS concludes there is insufficient evidence demonstrating a favorable risk-benefit ratio for the pathway of gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions in children and adolescents. ASPS recommends that surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old.</blockquote>
What’s hilarious about this statement is that they are not making the case that they picked the age of 19 because the brain is developed enough for a teen to make a good decision. That is not the case they&#8217;re making. They&#8217;re not saying there&#8217;s a difference in kind between these sorts of surgeries performed on a 21-year-old and those performed on a 17-year-old.
The reason they are putting out “19 years old” is very obvious: At 18, you can legally consent, and once you can legally consent, the doctors can&#8217;t be sued.
That&#8217;s all that&#8217;s happening here. Liability came to the plastic surgeons, and now they&#8217;re saying, “We still want to do these surgeries because we get paid for them even though they&#8217;re really bad. We&#8217;re going to continue to do them, but we&#8217;ll do it for people above the age of 18.’
That is still bad medical practice. It does not solve the problem politically for people who claim that men can become women and women can become men.
This is a barrier for Democrats. When I was on Gavin Newsom&#8217;s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrDpBwpSqSc">show</a> in California, this issue came up, and he really struggled with it. The reason he struggled with it is because he knows it is not only a political loser, but in his heart, he knows it is not true.
The vast majority of people in the United States also know it is untrue that a man can become a woman.
But there are social demands to mirror that nonsense. And if Democrats decide to follow this issue all the way down the political rabbit hole, they will not be able to get out. It is legitimately a barrier to entry for voters.
The bottom line is that if Democrats keep running up against both the science and legal liability, they are in for a continued world of hurt.

A major medical association said Tuesday that it does not support transgender surgeries on those under the age of 19, drawing praise from the Trump administration.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) <a href="https://www.plasticsurgery.org/documents/health-policy/positions/2026-gender-surgery-children-adolescents.pdf">released</a> a position statement saying that the available evidence did not support genital procedures or removing the breasts of young girls who identify as boys. The society also said there was “insufficient” support for placing kids on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.
“In light of recent publications reporting very low/low certainty of evidence regarding mental health outcomes, along with emerging concerns about potential long-term harms and the irreversible nature of surgical interventions in a developmentally vulnerable population, ASPS concludes there is insufficient evidence demonstrating a favorable risk-benefit ratio for the pathway of gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions in children and adolescents,” the society said in its position statement. “ASPS recommends that surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old.”
The position statement, in part, cited a review from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which found there was no support for transgender procedures on minors.
“These reviews have not resolved earlier uncertainties regarding treatment benefit; in some areas they have contributed to a clearer understanding of potential harms, while also highlighting limitations of the available evidence, including gaps in documenting long-term physical, psychological, and psychosocial outcomes,” the position statement said.
The Trump administration has fought hard to shield kids from transgender procedures and has looked to cut off all government funding for hospitals that perform the procedures.
“We commend the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for standing up to the overmedicalization lobby and defending sound science,” HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said. “By taking this stand, they are helping protect future generations of American children from irreversible harm.”
Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, the chair of Do No Harm, praised the society for its statement, saying that it was the first major medical society to disavow the procedures for kids.
“High praise to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for taking an important step toward ending the unscientific and harmful practice of sex-rejecting procedures on minors,” he said. “The ASPS’s thoughtful, scientific, and well-reasoned statement today is a model for other medical organizations—namely the Endocrine Society, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and others—to follow and disavow their previous support for experimental and unscientific interventions. This fight is not over, and we will continue to protect American children by exposing any organization that spreads gender lies.”
Over two dozen states have passed laws protecting kids from transgender surgeries and life-altering cross-sex hormones. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons said it believes that “the regulation of medical care is best achieved through professional self-regulation, rather than criminal law or punitive legislative approaches.”

No one would accuse celebrities of being humble or uninterested in their looks. But despite their legendary vanity and obsession with youth, the tide may be turning on the plastic surgery craze. 
These days it’s a lot more likely that a star brags about removing fillers and implants and going makeup free. For once, reality is winning the war against total phoniness.
Example one: Pamela Anderson, who became famous thanks to her oversized chest and dramatic makeup. These days the “Baywatch” star has been making headlines for appearing on the red carpet without any makeup at all beginning in 2023.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
“This whole peeling it back was kind of how I just started. I just wanted to remember who I was,” Anderson told <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DDZrhUkBjBr/?hl=en">Entertainment Tonight</a> in early December. 
“I mean I&#8217;ve been playing characters my whole life — I want to play characters in movies, not in my personal life,” she went on. “I just want to be me, so this is an experiment. It&#8217;s just something I feel drawn to do — I didn&#8217;t even think anyone would notice!”
It’s similar to what the actress told Better Homes &amp; Gardens during an August <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pamela-anderson-says-shes-moving-away-from-the-cartoon-character-image-she-created">interview</a>. “That was the beginning of me letting go of the image I had always had of myself. What is this cartoon character that I’d created? OK, that was fun. But I’m not that person anymore.”
Anderson isn’t the only one. Singer Megan Trainor spoke candidly about the possible downsides of cosmetic treatments, even minor ones like filler. She <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/megan-trainor-i-got-too-much-botox-and-a-lip-flip-cant-smile-anymore">told</a> podcast listeners that doing a simple procedure left her unable to smile.
“I messed up,” she admitted. 
“Someone convinced me with my little lips that if you did a lip flip, you put filler right above your upper lip, that you could have a beautiful flip on your upper lip. And I could have one for the first time in my whole 30 years of living — it was not true,” Trainor continued. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Meghan Trainor says she can no longer smile after getting Botox:
“To all my fellow girlies out there who are in your 30s out there, hi. I got too much Botox, and I need help… Someone convinced me with my little lips that – if you did a lip flip [and] you put filler right above… <a href="https://t.co/TFADjnjtrp">pic.twitter.com/TFADjnjtrp</a>

“I cannot smile anymore,” she said. “Everywhere I go, I cannot smile. My face hurts to smile, to even try.”
She recommended that fans shouldn’t “try everything.”
“Little House on the Prairie” actress Melissa Gilbert also said she had some cosmetic surgery regret, describing the final results as making her look like “the spawn of Satan.”
“I had no facial expression, which is anathema considering what I do for a living,” Gilbert <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/little-house-on-the-prairie-actress-talks-regrettable-cosmetic-procedures-became-the-spawn-of-satan">said</a> at the time, adding, “It’s exhausting keeping up that kind of façade.

Plastic surgeons recently discussed the growing trend of patients working to “de-Kardashian” their bodies, as The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/plastic-surgeons-say-americans-are-choosing-to-de-kardashian-their-bodies">reported</a>. And while they aren’t forgoing cosmetic surgery all together, they are going for subtlety over the exaggerated, Jessica Rabbit look that’s been popular for so long.
“Lifts and even breast reductions are on the rise, along with tummy tucks to make the midsection look more fit,” New York plastic surgeon Darren Smith told The Hollywood Reporter.
“I see a 20 percent increase in women coming in for lifts this year over last,” Lyle Leipziger, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at both North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center, said. “And those that want implants only want to go up one bra size.”
Southern California cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Annie Chiu said that social media has spurred “injectable backlash,” adding that “the filler market has been down in ’24.”
“At first, everyone was encouraged to get that very contoured, overfilled Instagram face, but now there is a real fear of looking weird,” Dr. Chiu said.
Former child star Lindsay Lohan has the best example of a recent glow up. Social media went wild when she was promoting her new Netflix holiday film, aptly named “Our Little Secret,&#8221; and followers insisted she suddenly look ten years younger. 
An esthetician compared photos of Lohan in a <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@elevenesthetician/video/7440206892401560878?_r=1&amp;_t=8rw7BHCw7b9">viral TikTok</a> in November, saying, “I need to know absolutely everything that occurred between 2018 to 2024 to have this crazy of a transformation. I’m in the industry and I’m at a loss for words.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Other celebrities including Christina Aguilera and Donatella Versace appear to have opted for more natural looks, which one TikTok user said was the equivalent of returning to “factory settings.” 
She <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@emme_davi/video/7439915404425776426?_r=1&amp;_t=8rw7RVvJDuF">asked</a>, “Who is the magic engineer? Who has the magic wand?”
 &#8220;It&#8217;s not just undetectable; it&#8217;s understated,&#8221; Dr. Anthony Rossi, a dermatologist and surgeon who hosts the podcast &#8220;Give Good Face: Clean Clinical Science, said of the new trend, per <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/health-wellness/2024/12/04/lindsay-lohan-now-plastic-surgery-speculation/76761690007/">USA Today</a>. &#8220;It&#8217;s very minimalistic, but with improvements, and so it&#8217;s not this over-the-top, in-your-face, big cheeks, frozen face. It&#8217;s really more subtle. It&#8217;s really nice and refined. I love it. I think New York has been like that for a while and now other areas are catching up with it.&#8221;
That may also include getting breast implants removed, something that multiple celebrities including reality stars, models, and actresses including Anderson, Tori Spelling, Chrissy Teigen, and more have been doing in recent years. 
Race car driver Danica Patrick explained her decision with US Weekly in 2022. 
“I had tried for a year to resolve certain health issues and certain things going on that were outside of the norm and outside of what I thought there was a reason for it,” Patrick <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-body/pictures/celebs-whove-had-their-breast-implants-removed-and-why/">said</a> at the time.
“Um, and so it wasn’t like I thought I’ll get surgery and tell everyone, and it’ll be the magic fix to things. I had tried so many other things that I really had hoped would’ve been the fix, but it wasn’t. And so when I finally found something after so much searching and for a long year of a lot of testing and a lot of different protocols, it made a difference. … I feel amazing and it just keeps getting better.”
We’re still a long way from seeing celebrities embrace the reality of aging gracefully, but the backlash against over-the-top plastic surgery is at least a step in a more natural-looking direction.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/plastic-surgery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Plastic surgeons</a> across the country have said that in 2024, they’ve noticed a trend by Americans to have a more athletic look by skipping the fillers in their lips, deflating their breasts, and shrinking their butts in an effort to de-Kardashian their bodies.
The <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/lifestyle-news/trends-plastic-surgery-1236065391/">Hollywood Reporter</a> spoke to doctors on both coasts who said they’ve seen a desire to skip the exaggerated hourglass shapes with huge backsides due to Brazilian butt lifts and big chests made popular by the likes of reality stars such as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kim-kardashian" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kim Kardashian</a> and her sisters.

“Lifts and even breast reductions are on the rise, along with tummy tucks to make the midsection look more fit,” New York plastic surgeon Darren Smith told THR.
“I see a 20 percent increase in women coming in for lifts this year over last,” Lyle Leipziger, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at both North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center, said. “And those that want implants only want to go up one bra size.”
And doctors said instead of seeing these kinds of requests from those in their 20’s and 40’s, they are now seeing it much later in life.
<a href="https://get.dailywire.com/gift-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE</a>
“I now have women in their 60s, 70s and even 80s coming in to get their breasts and tummies done,” Leipziger said.
Sean Alemi, a New York facial plastic surgeon, calls it the “tweakmovement,” suggesting instead of getting a ton of work done, people are getting less invasive procedures.
“People in their 40s don’t want to wait until aging affects their entire face, so they are getting lower eyelid skin pinches and upper lid lifts to get rid of hooding, using just local anesthesia,” Alemi said. “It freshens without changing the shape of the face.”
A southern California cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Annie Chiu, said that because of social media, she’s also seen what she called “an injectable backlash,” adding that the “the filler market has been down in ’24.”
“At first, everyone was encouraged to get that very contoured, overfilled Instagram face, but now there is a real fear of looking weird,” Chiu said. “My colleagues think that L.A. is more overdone, but there is bad work everywhere, especially Miami and Dallas, and the Housewives of New York don’t exactly have that subtle look.”
However, it apparently depends on which coast you reside on, as New York dermatologist Howard Sobel said his patients from LA still want that full round face look, compared to his New York clients.
“They want an exaggerated feminine look because that gets you noticed, but that look has never been New York,” Sobel said. “They bring in pictures of celebrities they want to look like, but they don’t even have similar facial structures.”

Plastic Surgeons Say Americans Are Choosing To De-Kardashian Their Bodies

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons, which represents 92% of all board-certified American plastic surgeons, has broken with the general consensus among medical associations, indicating it disagrees with “gender-affirming care” for minors.
In July, ASPS <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/article/a-consensus-no-longer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">informed</a> Leor Sapir of the Manhattan Institute that it “has not endorsed any organization’s practice recommendations for the treatment of adolescents with gender dysphoria,” adding that there is “considerable uncertainty as to the long-term efficacy for the use of chest and genital surgical interventions” and that “the existing evidence base is viewed as low quality/low certainty.”
ASPS follows Doctors Protecting Children, a group part of a nonprofit that issued a <a href="https://doctorsprotectingchildren.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declaration</a> on July 6 that stated in no uncertain terms how it felt about “gender-affirming care,” saying:
<blockquote>
Given the recent research and the revelations of the harmful approach advocated by WPATH and its followers in the United States, we, the undersigned, call upon the medical professional organizations of the United States, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the  Endocrine Society, the Pediatric Endocrine Society, American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry to follow the science and their European professional colleagues and immediately stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex.  Instead, these organizations should recommend comprehensive evaluations and therapies aimed at identifying and addressing underlying psychological co-morbidities and neurodiversity that often predispose to and accompany gender dysphoria. We also encourage the physicians who are members of these professional organizations to contact their leadership and urge them to adhere to the evidence-based research now available.
</blockquote>
“As the U.K.’s Cass Review pointed out, the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) and the U.S. Endocrine Society were especially important in forging this consensus, and they did so by citing each other’s statements, rather than conducting a scientific appraisal of the evidence,” Sapir noted, adding, “The U.S. is one of the few Western countries where minors can receive gender surgeries, according to <a href="https://aristotlefoundation.org/study/comparing-teenagers-children-and-gender-transition-policy-in-canada-the-united-states-and-europe">a new report</a>.”

Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Sheila Nazarian told Sapir, “We are physicians with responsibility for the health and well-being of our patients. We can get input from other clinicians, but ultimately the responsibility for determining medical readiness lies with us. That means that we have to examine all the data and studies available to us. Furthermore, you can’t help people by ignoring the reasons they want to go under the knife.”

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kate-beckinsale">Kate Beckinsale</a> shut down plastic surgery rumors and said the “insidious bullying” over time takes a toll on her mental health — following a hospital stay in March for an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kate-beckinsales-no-context-hospital-photos-sound-alarm-bells-from-fans">undisclosed health issue</a>.
In a lengthy post on Sunday on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C6lgGS4r9k5/?img_index=7">Instagram</a>, the 50-year-old actress posted two videos, one of her twenty years ago and another more recent, and said that the only reason she looks different is that she’s aged. However, she was adamant that she had not undergone any surgery to change her looks and asked people to stop bullying her.
“Every time I post anything — and by the way, this has been the case since I was about 30 — I am accused of having had unrecognizable surgery/using Botox using fillers/being obsessed with looking younger, and it’s really such a tiresome and subtly vicious way to bully a person,” Beckinsale wrote.
“I don’t actually do any of those things — I’ve even gone to the trouble of having a plastic surgeon categorically state that I don’t and haven’t, and still, every time there’s a chorus of ‘my God, you’re unrecognizable,’” she added. “‘Oh my God PLASTIC, oh my God, you don’t even look like yourself anymore,’ it happens constantly and it’s usually women that are doing it.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Kate Beckinsale pens furious post hitting back at &#8216;insidious bullying&#8217; by trolls who accuse her having plastic surgery and being &#8216;unrecognisable&#8217;: &#8216;Please stop now&#8217; <a href="https://t.co/5j0qoILAjO">https://t.co/5j0qoILAjO</a>

“Life happens — obviously I have aged, everybody ages,” Beckinsale continued. “I’m not too concerned about aging — because I found my father dead at the age of 5, I spent most of my teenage years and a good deal of my 20s absolutely crippled with severe anxiety and panic attacks that I was going to die of a heart attack too, and went to emergency rooms often, and was almost, at that time of my life, completely immobilized by that anxiety.”
The “Click” star noted that the difference in the two videos was things like how she had “paler” skin because she “lived in the UK” or used to pluck her eyebrows too much, and most noticeably had a “fuller face” because she was younger.
She closed out her post noting that she’s fully aware that even saying all this “will have absolutely no effect&#8221; on those bullying her.
“It isn’t going to stop,” Beckinsale wrote. “But I’m also posting it because whatever someone looks like, accusing them constantly of things they haven’t done, or being obsessed with youth when actually, currently I’m obsessed with surviving loss, is bullying. Please stop now.”
The “Serendipity” star’s post comes as her family has been dealing with the loss of her step-father, British TV director Roy Battersby. He died in January of a “massive stroke” while battling cancer, <a href="https://pagesix.com/2024/03/11/entertainment/kate-beckinsale-hospitalized-thanks-mom-for-support/">Page Six</a> noted. He was 87.
At the time, Beckinsale shared a video of her stepfather and wrote on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C2JKFepJxNw/">social media</a>, “I have no words yet . Thank you [<a href="https://www.instagram.com/katebeckinsale_slovakia2/">katebeckinsale_slovakia2</a>] for making this beautiful thing. I fought for you with everything I had. Oh Roy, I am so sorry I lost.”

‘Bullied’: Kate Beckinsale Shuts Down Plastic Surgery Rumors

'Bullied': Kate Beckinsale Shuts Down Plastic Surgery Rumors

Instagram

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kylie-jenner" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kylie Jenner</a> shut down plastic surgery rumors and asked how people could compare the face she had when she was 12 years old to the one she has now.
In a cover story for <a href="https://www.interviewmagazine.com/culture/kylie-jenner-interviewed-by-jennifer-lawrence" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Interview magazine</a>, actress Jennifer Lawrence and the 26-year-old reality TV star talked about being accused of having work done to change their facial appearance despite both crediting the changes to aging and makeup.
Lawrence said, &#8220;It&#8217;s incredible what makeup can do because I work with Hung [Vanngo], who overlines the lip, and I call him a plastic surgeon, because everybody in the last few months since I&#8217;ve been working with him is convinced that I had eye surgery.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m like, &#8216;I didn&#8217;t have eye surgery. I&#8217;m doing makeup,&#8221; she added.
Jenner said it&#8217;s amazing what makeup can do before admitting she &#8220;did end up getting lip fillers.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;ll see before and after photos when I&#8217;m 12 years old versus 26 and my eyebrows are filled differently,&#8221; Jenner said. &#8220;I have contour on. I&#8217;m like, &#8216;How can you compare my 12-year-old face and say I&#8217;ve gotten my jaw shaved and eyelids removed?&#8217; I&#8217;m like, &#8216;What are we talking about?'&#8221;
Lawrence agreed and said that she has had to deal with the same thing after coming into the spotlight at such a young age.
&#8220;I started at 19, so I get the before and after pictures from when I&#8217;m 19 to 30 and I&#8217;m like, &#8216;I grew up. I lost baby weight in my face, and my face changed because I&#8217;m aging,&#8221; the &#8220;Hunger Games&#8221; star said.

&#8220;Everybody thought I had a nose job, and I&#8217;m like, &#8216;I&#8217;ve had the exact same nose. My cheeks got smaller. Thank you for bringing it up,'&#8221; she added.
Earlier this year, <a href="https://people.com/kylie-jenner-regrets-getting-breasts-done-7565553" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jenner</a> expressed regret for going under the knife for breast augmentation when she was younger before having her two children.
&#8220;I wish I never got them done to begin with,&#8221; Jenner said. &#8220;[I] recommend anyone thinking about it to wait after children.&#8221;
In the same interview,  she admitted she&#8217;d be &#8220;heartbroken&#8221; if her daughter Stormi decided to get cosmetic surgery in her teenage years as she did.

‘How Can You Compare My 12-Year-Old Face?’: Kylie Jenner Shuts Down Plastic Surgery Rumors

'How Can You Compare My 12-Year-Old Face?': Kylie Jenner Shuts Down Plastic Surgery Rumors

Jennifer Lawrence

“Little House on the Prairie” actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Melissa Gilbert</a> spoke candidly about her experience with cosmetic procedures, saying it made her look worse, not better.
The 59-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">celebrity</a> said it all started when she was preparing to appear on “Dancing With the Stars” in 2012.
&#8220;I was approaching 50 and there was this panic of, &#8216;This is it. I&#8217;ve got to wring this out while I can,’” Gilbert told <a href="https://people.com/melissa-gilbert-little-house-on-the-prairie-on-aging-and-menopause-8387213">People</a> during a recent interview. This age milestone inspired her to make a few “bad choices” when it came to beauty enhancements.
&#8220;I literally looked like Carrot Top, the comedian. My hair was too red, and when I did <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/plastic-surgery">Botox</a>, I became the spawn of Satan with pointy eyebrows,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I had no facial expression, which is anathema considering what I do for a living.&#8221;
She added, &#8220;It’s exhausting keeping up that kind of façade. I was very insecure.&#8221; 
The former child star met her husband that same year and credits his influence with helping her pivot to a more natural look.
&#8220;I embraced it,&#8221; she said of looking older. &#8220;And when I would say, ‘I think I’m going to stop coloring my hair,’ he’d say, ‘Can’t wait to see what color it is. This is so exciting!’ When I said, ‘I think I want to get my breast implants taken out permanently,’ he said, ‘Do it!’&#8221;
<a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9866">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a>
&#8220;It’s incredibly uplifting to be with someone who says, ‘I love you exactly the way you are,’” Gilbert told the outlet. “It makes a big difference to come home to someone who sees me in sweats with no makeup on and my hair back in a ponytail and goes, ‘Oh, you are the most beautiful woman.&#8217; As opposed to someone who goes, &#8216;I think you could lose a little weight.&#8217; Or, &#8216;I&#8217;m getting nervous about these lines around your eyes.&#8217; Which did happen in my past.&#8221;
&#8220;I don&#8217;t color my hair anymore,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;I don&#8217;t put any fillers or Botox in my face. I take care of myself to the best of my ability, but I am what I am. I am not going sacrifice my own well-being because someone expects me to be something they have in their mind.&#8221;
The actress said being famous for playing 12-year-old Laura Ingalls Wilder on the show is part of what made her feel she had to always look young. But now she’s happy to have aged. 
&#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t want to be younger,&#8221; Gilbert said. &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t want to have to learn these lessons again. I like where I am. Happy in my skin, happy in my life.&#8221;

‘Little House On The Prairie’ Actress Talks Regrettable Cosmetic Procedures: ‘Became The Spawn Of Satan’

'Little House On The Prairie' Actress Talks Regrettable Cosmetic Procedures: 'Became The Spawn Of Satan'

A top California plastic surgeon <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/08/30/plastic-surgeon-claims-president-joe-biden-spent-100k-on-face-lifts-hair/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">estimates</a> that over the years President Biden has spent the equivalent of $100,000 in current dollars on plastic surgery, including a face and eyebrow lift.
Dr. Gary Motykie of West Hollywood, California, has performed plastic surgeries ranging from rhinoplasties to facial rejuvenation, and submitted to JamPress that Biden had extensive work done from the neck up.
“I’d estimate that Joe Biden would’ve spent as much as $100,000 in right now’s [dollars] on cosmetic surgery if he had undergone these procedures right here in Beverly Hills,” Motykie said.
“President Biden is now 82 years old … I think he’s definitely had some plastic surgery,” Motykie said in a TikTok video. He opined that Biden had “telltale signs of plastic surgery,” starting with “his hair.&#8221;
“We can see that even 30 to 40 years ago, his hair was thinning quite dramatically,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And then we see some signs that he underwent a hair transplant procedure … and probably one of the older techniques.”
Motykie cited Biden’s brow, saying it had an “unnatural appearance” similar to actor Burt Reynolds or singer Kenny Rogers. “And in men, as I always say, it can make them look a little feminine or a little odd in the brow, and we see that in President Biden,” Motykie claimed.
“Also when he’s turned to the side in certain angles, we can see some of the signs in the ear and in the neck here,” Motykie concluded. He also claimed Biden had undergone a lower blepharoplasty to eliminate eyebags, as well as used botox and fillers.
Over the course of his career, Biden has been accused at times of shallowness and prioritizing optics. He recently received widespread criticism for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/feel-the-empathy-and-decency-biden-slammed-for-not-acknowledging-his-own-grandchild" target="_blank" rel="noopener">refusing</a> to acknowledge his seventh grandchild, critics suggesting it was motivated by a desire to bury more ugly press about his son, Hunter.
In a famous <a href="https://www.washingtonian.com/1974/06/01/joe-biden-kitty-kelley-1974-profile-death-and-the-all-american-boy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> Biden conducted with Kitty Kelley in June 1974, only a year and a half after his wife and 13-month-old daughter, Naomi, were killed in a tragic car accident, the then-senator boasted to Kelley while showing his deceased wife in a bikini, “Let me show you my favorite picture of her. She had the best body of any woman I ever saw. She looks better than a Playboy bunny, doesn’t she?”
In the same interview, Biden declared, “I want to find a woman to adore me again.” He also warned Kelley in the interview, “And, whether you like it or not, young lady, us cruddy politicians can take away that First Amendment of yours if we want to.”

Biden Has Spent $100,000 On Cosmetic Surgery, Top Plastic Surgeon Claims

Joe Biden

Actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/charlize-theron">Charlize Theron</a> says she hasn&#8217;t had <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/plastic-surgery">plastic surgery</a> or put fillers in her face, despite rumors claiming she has.
&#8220;My face is changing, and I love that my face is changing and aging,&#8221; the 48-year-old actress said in a recent interview with <a href="https://www.allure.com/story/charlize-theron-aging-facelift-interview">Allure</a>.
Theron went on to address speculation running rampant among her fan base. She claimed any changes to her appearance are the result of time, not cosmetic procedures. &#8220;People think I&#8217;ve had a facelift. They’re like, &#8216;What did she do to her face?&#8217; I’m like, &#8216;B***, I’m just aging! It doesn’t mean I got bad plastic surgery. This is just what happens,'&#8221; the “Atomic Blonde” actress continued.
She said there is a double standard between the sexes regarding aging.
“I’ve always had issues with the fact that men kind of age like fine wines and women like cut flowers,” Theron said. &#8220;I despise that concept and I want to fight against it, but I also think women want to age in a way that feels right to them. I think we need to be a little bit more empathetic to how we all go through our journey,&#8221; Theron told the outlet. “My journey of having to see my face on a billboard is quite funny now.&#8221;
The “Fast X” actress also discussed how her two children see and react to the aging process.
<a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-28178">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a>
&#8220;They see somebody, they like what they’re wearing, or they think they’re pretty and they don’t really know if she’s in her 20s or she’s in her 60s,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It’s so great. I love that. I wish we could just maintain that.” 
Theron is the mother of two adopted children, one of whom she says has identified as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/charlize-theron-says-giving-up-acting-career-for-motherhood-would-be-a-no-brainer">transgender</a> since the age of three. 
“Yes, I thought she was a boy, too,” Theron told the Daily Mail of Jackson in 2019. “Until she looked at me when she was three years old and said, ‘I am not a boy.’”
“My job as a parent is to celebrate them and to love them and to make sure that they have everything they need in order to be what they want to be,” the actress said of her children. “And I will do everything in my power for my kids to have that right and to be protected within that.”

Supermodel Christy Turlington had only praise for women who she said have chosen to &#8220;age naturally&#8221; and she made it clear she won&#8217;t be using plastic surgery — nor does she think other women should attempt to slow down mother nature.
The 54-year-old model talked about the women she sees as beauty icons and said they are the ones who have stayed away from altering their faces to hide the fact that they have lived life, calling it beautiful, <a href="https://www.marieclaire.com/beauty/christy-turlington-beauty-routine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marie Claire</a> reported.
&#8220;Women who have stayed away from augmentation of themselves — those are the women I really admire,&#8221; Turlington said. &#8220;I love seeing a real face. A face of someone who&#8217;s lived life.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;I would say my beauty icons are people like Jane Birkin,&#8221; she added, noting the model who passed away last month at 76.
&#8220;They have the kind of faces I like to see, and we don&#8217;t get to see as many of those in the world anymore,&#8221; the supermodel continued. &#8220;Jane aged in her way. She was as beautiful at the end of her life as she was early on.&#8221;
Turlington made it clear she doesn&#8217;t plan to change her looks in an attempt to appear younger either.
&#8220;I will be one of those faces,&#8221; the model said. &#8220;I am one of those faces.&#8221;
The mother of two previously vowed she wouldn&#8217;t be trying any of those crazy things people do like &#8220;collagen&#8221; and &#8220;fat cells&#8221; to change her looks, <a href="https://www.townandcountrymag.com/leisure/arts-and-culture/a7628/christy-turlington-interview/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Town and Country</a> noted.
&#8220;First of all, I have no time,&#8221; Turlington said. &#8220;Second of all, I don&#8217;t think it looks good. Maybe I would think differently if I thought it looked good, and it didn&#8217;t hurt, and it didn&#8217;t send bad messages to young people. But I&#8217;ve never seen someone who I&#8217;ve been like, &#8216;Oh, that&#8217;s a good idea.&#8217; It looks freaky to me.&#8221;
Another 90s supermodel, Cindy Crawford, recently slammed our &#8220;youth-obsessed culture&#8221; and how terms like &#8220;ageless&#8221; place &#8220;too much pressure&#8221; on her to look like she&#8217;s 30 years younger, <a href="https://hauteliving.com/2022/11/the-transformation-of-cindy-crawford-haute-living-cover-story/719814/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Haute Living</a> reported.
&#8220;I know all the ways that I&#8217;ve aged,&#8221; the 57-year-old model said. &#8220;My face has gotten much thinner; my mouth isn&#8217;t as full. Being told I&#8217;m ageless isn&#8217;t right, especially because getting older is hard enough, never mind that we live in a youth-obsessed culture.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m not 25, so why should I be trying to look 25?&#8221; she added. &#8220;Why do I want someone to mistake me for a 25-year-old? I&#8217;ve had children. I have all this life experience.&#8221;
