Before: In 2002 "Lost in Translation" and the infamous opening bum shot hadn't happened yet. Johansson only had over-tweezed eyebrows, a mullet, and some seriously questionable fashion sense to lean on.
After: Nine years and one burgeoning divorce later, ScarJo has been ranked number nine in FHM's "100 Sexiest Women in the World" and has the skin, hair and body of a Grecian goddess.

Katy Perry

After: Now that she's topping the music charts, Perry is a bronzed babe with lush lashes and extensions to boot.

America Ferrera
Before: Right before "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" debuted in 2005, Ferrera was a chubby, freckle-faced young woman with big dreams and a bit of a crooked smile.
After: Now, with a handful of successful movies and "Ugly Betty" under her belt, she has lost her baby weight, faded those freckles and straightened her teeth.

Blake Lively
Before: Sunspots, freckles and a few imperfections were all over Lively's face back in 2005.
After: Now her skin is smooth, her complexion is even, her nose is more defined, and she's on the brink of major stardom.
Haven't we all heard that sometimes to fix a problem, you just need to throw a little money at it? Well, for most of us gals, this isn't always an option, but for celebrities it's practically how they do (beauty) business.
That's why when we look at red carpet photos and magazine covers, it's easy to get down on ourselves thinking, "how in the world are they so gosh darn perfect!?" So we decided that instead of letting their perfection frustrate us, we'd do something more productive, like remember that without fame and fortune, these flawless celebrities look a lot like us. Because the truth is, which we're sure you're well aware of, being famous allows you the luxuries of having regular facials, dermatologist visits, access to the best hairstylists, colorists, dentists and plastic surgeons in the country. That all means that if they have skin problems, acne, frizzy hair, crooked teeth, flat chests, big noses or the like, they can quickly see to it that these "problems" get "fixed."
