The face of Patti Stanger has really changed over the years. The Millionaire Matchmaker, 51, has shared a picture of herself as a fresh-faced college graduate with fans on Bravo's website.
Patti has gone under the knife a few times and has had her eyelids done, Botox injections and a breast reduction. She also appears to have veneers. The outspoken TV dating expert isn't shy admitting it either and even went into detail about fixing her droopy eyelids - a condition called ptosis: 'I wanted a facelift. He [her doctor] wouldn’t give it to me,' she told host Andy Cohen.
She also stated that she gets Botox too, but that it's because of the cluster headaches she's prone to (lol). Patti had more advice for those seeking cosmetic surgery, maintaining that the surgeons 'lie' about the recovery time required so 'you better double it.'

For example, I've talked to co-workers about getting botox casually - in a joking way even - and I get straight-up judged for it. So now, if I were to get it, I wouldn't tell anyone and would probably deny it for fear of ridicule.
Also, in general, it can be embarrassing to admit to the public that you care *that much* about your appearance. Everyone wants to seem confident and happy with themselves - not to mention natural and effortless - so it can be a bit humbling/humiliating to admit the lengths you're willing to go to to be 'more attractive' or conform.
ohh so that's what my mom should do to get rid of her headaches!! thx patti

I mean, to each there own, but I'm not about to put poison in my already splitting head.
Although, I pass little judgement on people who get plastic surgery. I say do whatever the fuck you want. My breast reduction improved my quality of life boatloads.
it is obv that most people go on that show for attention, there have been like no success stories on the show. maybe off camera, but not on the show.
Flawless plan.
As the star of Bravo’s “The Millionaire Matchmaker,” Patti Stanger is in the business of finding people who fit romantically, and on Friday, the relationship guru weighed in on why she thinks Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher split.
“What it is, is that there’s a 16-year age difference in the older female and younger male,” Patti told Access Hollywood. “I don’t think it can work.”
Patti, who continues her own search for love in this Tuesday’s season finale of “The Millionaire Matchmaker,” thinks the opposite equation – an older man with a younger woman, is a good fit.
“In my opinion, I think the other way can [work],” she said. “In this case, Ashton’s young, with money. He doesn’t need her money; he’s very successful; he owns half of Silicon Valley; he’s invested in every major Internet company out there. The second thing is, he’s looking good, he’s back on TV, he’s got pep in his step and he’s hitting the blondes. What’s up with that?”
Patti, who has also had her personal relationship ups and downs, said she could relate to Demi.
“She’s getting to a different level in her life,” the Bravo star said. “It’s almost like her window’s closing and his is opening. And it’s sad, because I’m her age, I know exactly what it feels like to feel like, you know, ‘Is my tour of duty over?’ And I say to Demi, ‘Hang in there! But you need to date older – in your own age group.’”
While it’s unlikely Demi will be spotted dating any time soon, Patti said when the time is right, Demi should look for someone with similar values.
“I think she needs to find someone spiritual. She’s very involved in the Kabbalah Center. I don’t get the sense that Ashton is really in it for himself as far as Kabbalah is goes, to heighten himself. I think he did it for Demi,” Patti said. “I think she needs to find someone in her own age group who’s probably outside of Hollywood who’s a business owner.”

I had no idea Patti was Demi's age. She hasn't exploited plastic surgery too much IMO.
