Lara Flynn Boyle is widely believed to have turned to plastic surgery in her quest to remain youthful in recent years, but as the star arrived at Mr. Chow restaurant in Beverly Hills yesterday, she looked anything but fresh faced.

The 38-year-old's bloated face, drooping jowls and bursting trout pout rendered her almost unrecognisable from the actress who first shot to fame in director David Lynch's cult television series Twin Peaks.

Her famously fragile, childlike frame, which was left swimming in a beige pant suit, only added to her worrying appearance.

Lara, who formerly starred in popular US series The Practice and chalked up big screen credits including Men In Black 2, has struggled to keep her career as buoyant in recent times.

Her Beauty Frozen In Time, Diana is Finally Protected From the Tabloids. Lara Flynn Boyle Can't Say the Same
IT DOESN'T SEEM POSSIBLE THAT IN THE 10 YEARS SINCE PRINCESS DIANA'S TRAGIC DEATH INSIDE A PARIS TUNNEL that tabloid editors could have become crueler. But I'd make the case they have.

As Britain wraps up its six-month investigation into whether the royals conspired to kill the former wife of Prince Charles, the world revisits the fairy tale-gone-awry of a young girl who married her prince. I remember vividly my own personal shock when the news broke that Princess Diana had died in a car accident . I also remember the callous thought that ran through my head soon afterwards: that the beautiful princess was better off dead. After all, a picture-perfect princess doesn't come marred with scars.
The cruelness of the tabloids and their impossible expectations for the women of La La Land is on display as the tab predators target Lara Flynn Boyle for having a puffy face. I guess Lara should have had the good sense to have died in a car accident. Then she would never have to face the horrors of aging in the tabloids' eyes.

Shocking. I had the fortune of meeting her back around 2000 and she was strikingly beautiful. I had a sense her depth didn't quite match the shimmer of the surface but who's to say. I truly hope she didn't cut into what nature gave her.

Definitely looks like it could be Bell's Palsy as much as anything. She's a lovely woman, hope she gets it rectified, whatever it is.

What's the big deal?

The game is simple: if you live by your looks, you can die by your looks.

When this philosophy is practiced by the empty heads within the treasure trove of untalented folk in Hollywood/ TV land, then you have farce and potential tragedy.

This is especially true of the teleprompter readers- so-called "news" people- on cable. These people are the most useless among us.

Did someone do a driveby on her face? What's with droopy cheeks and hanging lip? Too much fellation Lara? Homegirl looks like she had a 12lb D**k between her cheeks and gums.

You'd think that after seeing Priscilla Presley, Melanie Griffith and Lionel Richie's ex-wife's face, these people would stop butchering their mugs..

FUGLY!!

What's the Huffington Post for? People are creating this kind of content, these stories, and the Huffington Post links to them. But, shouldn't these stories be ignored? I mean, Jessica Simpson had a UTI, and it is a huge headline. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/03/31/jessica-simpson-released-_n_94325.html
I guess I am naive.

"I first noticed her bloated face on the Law&Order episode a few weeks back. Interesting. What plastic surgery could cause that?"

Um...the ill-advised bad kind?
I saw that same episode & my wife & I could not get over it. Collagen O.D. The lips are a dead giveaway.
Poor dear.

I think she's going for that "Olmec" look. Sad to see these people doing this to themselves.

OMG ... she's 38? She looks 58! She looks ill, too. That's a pity ... she really was lovely, at one time.

Ironic that in an effort to mask ones age ones face appears a mask.

"Lara Flynn Boyle's Face Prompts Alarm"

Don't you mean 'prompts vicarious need for endless ticker tape of invasive non-stories in increasingly off-message 'news' site'? Or isn't that snappy enough for the sniggering, rubbernecking trolls who pass this way? None of you are alarmed. Look at yourselves, and leave this woman deal with her own problems. This 'story' is a putrescent morsel in a garbage bin of excrement, dined on by vacuous fools.

That's not her. An alien entity took over her body and tried to emulate her DNA and get it about 70% right.

The alien did a MUCH better job in "Men In Black II".
