普京被疑爲大選整容 皮膚平滑容光煥發
Speculation that Vladimir Putin may have had cosmetic surgery has resurfaced as he prepares to assume the Russian presidency for the third time。
The 58-year-old Russian prime minister set the blogosphere alight at the weekend after accepting his party's presidential nomination at a glitzy Moscow event with his face looking suspiciously smooth。
The skin around his eyes was almost totally clear of bags and wrinkles, triggering a fresh wave of speculation that he has had a series of cosmetic procedures to keep his face looking youthful。
Set to turn 59 next month, Mr Putin prides himself on his image as a Judo-loving energetic action man who is in ideal shape to lead the world's largest country。

But his critics say he risks turning into a parody of Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev who ruled the USSR from 1964 until his death in 1982. Mr Putin is well placed to serve two back-to-back presidential terms that would keep him in power until 2024 at which point he would be 71.
Speculation that he has cosmetically altered his face first surfaced in October 2010 after he appeared at a press conference in Ukraine wearing heavy make up with a dark patch that looked like severe bruising around his left eye. His spokesman said the incident was a misunderstanding, claiming the light had fallen awkwardly and that Mr Putin was simply tired because he had been "working a great deal."
Earlier this month, Russia's liberal New Times magazine revived that speculation, publishing an article entitled "What has happened with Putin's face?" It interviewed four leading plastic surgeons who concluded that it was likely he had undergone cosmetic surgery. The magazine said he had probably had Botox injected into his forehead, an eye-lift on his lower lids, and an injection of firming filler into his famous cheek bones。據英國《每日電訊報》9月26日報道，在普京打算第三次競選俄羅斯總統之際，關於他可能進行過整容手術的猜測又一次浮出水面。
這位五十八歲的俄羅斯總理上週末在莫斯科接受統一俄羅斯黨總統候選人提名時，皮膚看起來不可思議地平滑，這一現象立馬在博客引起熱議。
他眼部周圍的皮膚幾乎完全沒有眼袋和細紋，從而引發了新一輪的猜測，人們懷疑他進行了一系列整容手術以使他的臉看起來總是那麼年輕。
下個月就要59歲的普京，對自己的形象深感自豪，他愛好柔道充滿活力，並以這種理想狀態來領導這個世界上最大的國家。
但是他的批評者認爲普京是在拙劣地模仿從1964年直到1982年去世一直統治前蘇聯的領導人勃列日涅夫。普京已經爲連續兩次的總統任期做好準備，這樣就能使他一直當權到2024年，那時他將71歲。
關於普京整容的傳聞第一次出現是在2010年10月，當時他出席在烏克蘭的一次新聞發佈會，化着厚重的妝來遮掩暗斑，左眼周圍看上去有嚴重的淤青。普京的發言人聲稱那次事件是個誤會，只是現場燈光太暗，普京又工作繁重太過疲勞所致。
