“After that, you can’t go naturally, you’re staying right there,” he stated. “You try and go back to reset, and you can’t.” He added that the idea of botched surgeries worried him. “That s*** goes wrong!” he said.
He also cited a deeper reason for abstaining from cosmetic surgery.
“God might not recognize me, so I want to make sure he knows me,” said Richie, 73.
