The Jackson three: Do they share a plastic surgeon?

**Honey** · May 14th, 2007, 10:05 PM

It is obvious that they are related - or perhaps just that they share the same plastic surgeon.

For as LaToya Jackson celebrated her sister Janet's 41st birthday at the weekend, the family resemblance between the sisters - and their brother Michael - was striking.
But these days, the siblings' identical looks appear to owe almost as much to the knife as to genetics.

Surgical similarity? Janet Jackson celebrates her 41st birthday in the Bahamas. Her looks resemble those of Michael. LaToya, who has similar features, was also at the party

An onlooker at the Aura club, in the Bahamas, said: "There was absolutely no mistaking the two Jackson sisters.
"Not only were the two women of identical build, they were both wearing strappy dresses and had the same length hair.
"But the most striking similarity was their resemblance to Michael. Everything from the nose to the drawn- on, high arched eyebrows was the same.
"People were joking that the three of them must have the same plastic surgeon on their mobile phones' speed dial."

As they were: Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson and LaToya Jackson

Janet still looks something like the person she was before....the other two, holy shit!!!

such a shame that nobody was willing to say "no" to Michael when he started to take the plastic surgery too far. He was once cute. Surely someone must have realised that he needed help. The plastic surgeon should be ashamed of himself for not refusing the surgery.

If they do, there's not a good choice. He doesn't seem to work good.

Forget the Addams family, the Jackson family is way creepier.

**Nerissa** · May 16th, 2007, 02:21 AM

They look the same because they are going for the Hollywood standard of beauty... By the standard of Hollywood beauty all people in this world should look the same...

LaToya definitely bleached her skin...I think the whole vitiligo story with Michael is bullshit.

Creepy!

Michael looks like a wackojacko-lantern. Nice orange lipstick!

^ I think it's either Tito or Jermaine. Not sure.
Anyone got a picture of the dad, Joe? He's had some really scary results from plastic surgery. The mom's been under the knife too but looks good.

**Elisa** · May 19th, 2007, 10:35 AM

He was okay looking during these phases:

He's scary nowadays:

BWAH!!

Sorry, but Michael Jackson DOES have vitiligo. Its a fact, and you cannot dispute it. And um, LaToya was always light skin, just like Marlon. How can you not tell? Bleaching yourself is not possible anyway. I have yet to see or hear about anyone else that has gone through a drastic change in skin color by just bleaching their skin with regular products. I know of people bleaching their skin, but if you pay them any real attention you will notice the inconsistencies, they get darker then they get lighter again, this is because hydroquinone is not permanent.

People that bleach their skin to remove scars and minor discolorations use creams with only hydroquinone, which is reversible and not permanent. This is why when you buy bleaching creams at the store, it will always tell you that the pigmentation you wanted to get rid of may reappear. The medication monobenzylether of hydroquinone is used to do this and is very strong, it is only prescribed to vitiligo patients.

Vitiligo creates blotches/patches of white skin, and gradually spreads over the entire body. The process of this disease can be gradual and slow. Michael Jackson did not go from black to white overnight. People who bleach their skin do not spot. So during the period his body was visibly "black" he was actually covering his blotches to even out his complexion. Covering it up with makeup was only effective for awhile. As it gets worse, you have to apply more, as his make up artist (Karen Faye) for over 20 years stated, wearing full bodied makeup would be very hard. The depigmentation process takes awhile to complete and it is permanent. So unless you want to entertain the idea that both his dermatologist and make-up artist is lying about him being diagnosed with vitiligo and discoid lupus is...

As time goes on, his skin color becomes even more uneven, and his cheeks begin to always seem to have a red tint to them. (Due to Discoid Lupus) You’ll see it all over his face and even his neck. Same with the lip color, it started as a way to conceal the discoloration on his lips, if you’ll notice the discoloration on the outline of the lips in the first picture, and some discoloration on his nose in others.

Also, getting your hands on monobenzylether of hydroquinone is not easy. So I don’t want to hear the excuse that Michael Jackson just somehow got his hands on it. You have to be prescribed something like that from a dermatologist. Like I’ve said before, people that bleach their skin do not spot. People with vitiligo have gotten to the point where their pigment has been totally stripped from all of the their body, they are typically snow white in color. Michael Jackson is very pale, even in comparison to white people. The only cases of such a drastic change in skin color that I’ve seen or read about are with vitiligo patients.

People with vitiligo become very sensitive to the sun, because the natural protection that your skin has from the sun gets stripped away along with the pigmentation. If you go through depigmentation therapy the sensitivity of your skin to the sun becomes even worse. This is why when Michael is outside, most of the time you will see him shielding himself from the sun with either his hand or an umbrella. A lot of people don’t understand why he is with an umbrella all the time, this is the only reason.

That was in 2002, that bruise he has when he was bitten by a spider.

Vitiligo also in many cases, depigments the color of your lips (and corresponding body parts like nipples, etc) and in extreme cases, even turn your hair color, eye lash color, etc blonde or white.
