40-year-old Ronaldo has been exposed to have multiple plastic surgeries, with a more delicate nose and a lower hairline, which is difficult to detect after long-term fine adjustment.

On August 16, local time, Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo (C Ronaldo) shared a set of photos of himself during training on social media, but under the scorching sun, he was full of energy.

"There is no shortcut, only hard work," Ronaldo attached such an introduction to this set of photos, full of positive gratitude, and thus received many likes from fans, easily exceeding 3 million. Of course, this is nothing to him, who has 662 million fans.

At the same time, the British Daily Mail paid attention to the changes in Ronaldo's appearance. In the newspaper's opinion, this world-renowned star really needs some shortcuts to maintain his "frozen age".

The newspaper quoted Eli Levin, a top plastic surgeon in New York City, saying that Ronaldo has been adjusting his face, but because he chose "long-term engineering", it doesn't look so obvious and abrupt.

"I want to say that this means he did it right," Dr. Levin commented. "What I said was right means that if a person can benefit from plastic surgery and feel something natural, magical and great, then what he did is right."

"I am short, weak and sick, and my teeth are crooked," this is what Ronaldo described himself when he first arrived at Old Trafford. After more than 20 years, he obviously will not judge himself like this anymore. He is no longer weak or short, and even his teeth are no longer crooked.

Although high-intensity training and slightly cruel self-discipline are the reasons why Ronaldo can continue to play in the green field, this does not mean that he has not received "extra" help. In terms of personal image, Ronaldo also has quite high requirements for himself.

In Dr. Levine's opinion, the most eye-catching change in Ronaldo was his nose. "This is the first thing that caught my attention. His nose bridge was more delicate and the side walls of the nose were significantly narrower. This is consistent with rhinoplasty. Not only did he undergo a tip of the nose, but the entire upper half and the back of the nose were also more three-dimensional, which shows that in addition to possible cartilage surgery, his nose bones were also likely to be broken and reshaped."

In addition, another obvious change in Ronaldo over the years was his teeth. "His gums were exposed before, but then they were completely invisible," Dr. Levine said, "This definitely means that something can reduce gum exposure." Dr. Levine explained that there are two ways to solve the gum problem. One of the most popular ones is Botox injection combined with dental veneers. However, he believes Ronaldo may have also undergone surgery to narrow the upper gum area. "He may have reduced some of the bones in the area and moved the entire upper tooth area higher, which can also eliminate that gum-loss smile." In addition to dazzling teeth, one of Ronaldo's most prominent facial features is of course his smooth and shiny forehead, which Dr. Levin said is perfect for a man over forty. "Royce's lower eyelids, cheeks and forehead look intact, which means that the superstar has probably been injected with Botox to eliminate wrinkles and crow's feet in the upper face area."

In addition, the same seems to exist with his perfect cheekbones, which Dr. Levin believes is "enlarged". "His cheeks look no different from those at the age of 18 or 9, but he obviously does not have to bear the pain of failure in plastic surgery." Dr. Levine said that Ronaldo is now thin and healthy, which is a very valuable thing for many middle-aged men. But Ronaldo is not an image that he focuses on on a whim, but has accepted a long-term transformation, which can make him better without being noticed. "If you do small things slowly over the years, it will look very natural and great."

Nowadays, men's plastic surgery is no longer new, but the problem is that some men are eager to achieve success. Dr. Levine said that the one in contrast to Ronaldo is NFL legendary star Tom Brady. The ex-husband of Gisele Bundchen seemed to suddenly realize the importance of image because he signed a contract with Sports Station, so he hurriedly underwent surgery, "It would be very unnatural to complete projects including hair transplantation and filling in a short period of time."
