Marie Kolstad, an
83-year-old widowed property manager, created quite a buzz when she
underwent a three-hour breast lift with implants to the tune of $8,000.
The New York Times features her photo in “Golden Years, Polished With
Surgery,” August 8, 2011. Kolstad’s comment, “I want my children to be
proud of what I look like,” has set off a tempest among readers who
claim that children should love you for what you are, including every
wrinkle and age spot.
According to the New York Times, “Ms. Kolstad is one of many septuagenarians, octogenarians and even nonagenarians who are burnishing their golden years with help from the plastic surgeon. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, in 2010 there were 84,685 surgical procedures among patients age 65 and older. They included 26,635 face-lifts; 24,783 cosmetic eyelid operations; 6,469 liposuctions; 5,874 breast reductions; 3,875 forehead lifts; 3,339 breast lifts and 2,414 breast augmentations.”
