Kate Hudson joins the wave of celebrities talking about cosmetic treatments, opening up about using lasers in a recent Post on Instagram. But fans have had mixed reactions to the star’s openness about plastic surgery.
The 44-year-old posted a series of photos from a photo shoot (including Hudson posing with a gold face mask and letter rings that read ALMA) and a video of herself receiving the laser treatment. She captioned the seemingly sponsored post: “I’m happy to announce my partnership with ALMA, I’ve been using their lasers for over 10 years and love the results! I only work with brands that I truly love and can honestly recommend. Alma lasers have been part of my beauty routine @nursejamiela forever. Painless and effective ☀️@alma.lasers.international @almalasers_northamerica #almapartner.”
Alma Lasers is a company that offers skin treatments with a dual laser strategy for skin rejuvenation and scar healing.
Despite Hudson’s obvious excitement and positivity about the collaboration, fans had mixed reactions. One person commented, “Selling yourself. I love you because I THOUGHT you were a natural. I still adore you, but this increases the pressure on young girls to be perfect.” Another wrote: “What’s wrong with aging🤷♀️.” Another commented, “Ohhh lasers… like normal people can afford this nonsense… what a joke😂.”
On the other hand, some of her fans defended the star’s choice. One wrote: “These comments are so bitter. Kate does not force anyone to have these treatments. Please do whatever you want while she does whatever she wants.” Another wrote: “You are the perfect model for them, your skin is amazing, you are the proof! I will use Alma ❤️”
One supportive fan was passionate about Hudson’s honesty and openness about her treatments: “For the people who criticize her for this…realize that there are a lot of celebrities who act like they’re aging gracefully and naturally. At least Kate is transparent about what she’s doing.”
Hudson isn’t alone when it comes to skin-tightening cosmetic treatments for a youthful glow. In the age of social media, more and more celebrities are speaking out about their experiences with treatments. Christie Brinkley recently posted one Instagram video of and Robert Anolik, MDdermatologist, explaining the benefits of laser technology and the importance of body scans for skin cancer screenings.
Reactions to Brinkley’s post were a bit more positive, with fans flooding the comments with support for her transparency about cosmetics and the health benefits of Fraxel laser treatments. One person wrote, “This is brilliant on every level! Your willingness to share this and the wonderful way Dr. A. bedside makes it a very attractive option for us to look our best and take care of ourselves at the same time. 👍👍👍😃❣️.” Another commented, “Wow, thanks for sharing!! I’ve heard about this Fraxel laser but I’ve always been afraid of the pain, but you made it look so easy.’
Overall, cosmetic treatments are a personal choice. Celebrities being transparent about what they do to achieve the look they want is ultimately up to them. Love it or hate it, treating people with kindness is always the most beautiful choice.
