    Hollywood is puzzled about how the John Cusack got rid of his turkey neck after the release of his recent box office hit '1408.' The 41-year-old star has never been known as a vain person so it sort of came as a shock when the truth about his plastic surgery endeavors have been revealed.

    "John's never been a vain person, but when he watched his latest film, he was shocked to see how awful the sagging skin under his chin looked," an insider told The ENQUIRER. "At first John, who's very squeamish, tried to avoid surgery and went the 'anti-aging' route with a specialist."

    But the "Runaway Jury" star was unhappy with the results of his attempts to avoid surgery. Thus, Cusack took the challenge and decided to go under the knife and get a neck lift.

    The insider also divulged that plastic surgery is the last thing in the world that John wanted. However, it was really time to make a decision and get rid of the unsightly jowl. John even admitted that he is a coward when it comes to medical procedures. But when John took notice of the changes made by the procedure, he is very happy with the outcome.

    John's procedure took place in early July and now, the actors is so happy with the decision that he made.

    Well, there's really no point of resisting plastic surgery if there is a obvious need and if there's no way you can achieve the right results without using the scalpel. It's a good thing John took the courage to really go through it and now he is reaping the results of his bravery.

  • Honestly, I'm not sure that

    Honestly, I'm not sure that anyone looks forward to surgery, so John's not alone, I'm sure. I work with a doctor performing plastic surgery in Scottsdale, and one day I was at his office reading Cosmetic Surgery Times... they had an article about how surgery "intimidates" a lot of men and women. I would hope so; it's elective surgery, but it's still surgery. People like John (although I don't want to put words in his mouth) are worried about complications, about how much time they'll miss at work... about how much time they'll be away from doing the things they like to do. The good thing is that for the few reasons people choose not to have plastic surgery, there are millions of reasons why men and women elect for it - and each one is personal. I've always liked John and I certainly don't like him any less for having plastic surgery. We all deserve to like ourselves, and often that begins with liking how we see ourselves.

    John Cusak

    The problem is not that Cusak has had a face lift. The problem is he now as a face that looks like a large dinner plate completely devoid of natural human expression. Where do these stars get advice from?

    Don Juan Cusak

    I just saw John on Bill Maher's HBO show, and as someone who works with a Houston plastic surgeon, as well as someone who's heard all of the rumors about his having "work done," I was looking pretty closely. Honestly, I think he looks great. He looks like John Cusak. I couldn't hear what he was saying, really, because my wife wouldn't stop talking about 'Say Anything' (honey, how about you don't 'say anything' right now?). I'm not a doctor, so I'm no expert, but I couldn't tell if he's had a procedure. Still, if he indeed had a face lift or a neck lift or whatever, good for him, because he looks great. My wife doesn't work in the business, and she never asked, "do you think he's had some work done?". So there you go.

    Vain?

    I don't think ANYONE who elects a cosmetic medical procedure is vain. What it is is personal, and I for one don't know why as a society we obsess over whether someone has had something done. Who really cares? I guess it would be easy to say that I do, as I'm commenting here, but I work in plastic surgery, with three surgeons specializing in Atlanta breast enlargement. "Oh, so that's why you're posting? To promote your industry?" No, I'm posting to promote the fact that elective surgery is a personal decision-one that should be made to please oneself and one that shouldn't be anyone else's business. I'll admit that I've had a couple minor procedures (laser treatments to reduce the appearance of broken blood vessels) and I'm a man. I'll also admit that I'm glad I did it (and I'll do it again when the time comes). None of us want to smell bad, or dress poorly, or drive an ugly car, or live in a decrepit house... that doesn't make us vain. We all want to look our best (at least, most of us). It doesn't make us vain. It makes us human.

    Don't Accuse Cusack

    How are celebrities supposed to grow old gracefully, that's my question. There are just too many young starlets and himbos ready to take the place of big name celebs for them to age naturally. Do you really think Nic Cage looks that good for his age just through good genes? Probably not. I work with a Birmingham plastic surgeon and while I believe most people who want cosmetic procedures are operating under the "right" reasons, certainly there will always be debate about who's taking it too far. But what does it say about our society that we're so obsessed with youth? Is our own demise just a little too close for comfort?
