Did Our Founding Father’s Have Plastic Surgery??

Did the founding fathers pictured on American currency get facelifts? If you take a close look at the differences between old denominations of American money and new ones, you can notice that the portraits have been retouched to hide flaws, like Lincoln’s nose, Jackson’s laugh lines, and Hamilton’s jawline. Newsweek asked a plastic surgeon to break down just how he would make the same changes to a real person.

Check out Dr. Hildago’s assessment of our founding father’s after the jump.

    haha. this is a stretch. I highly doubt they had plastic surgery, especially since you are saying ALL of them did. Plus, none of them came to me..so I know they didn’t. ;)

    Maybe there pictures on the money gave them plastic surgery. At least that is what it looks like. Plastic surgery is not such a bad thing because the only thing it does is it makes people look better and not so old or ugly.
