Throughout his decades in the public eye, John Stamos has been revered for his stunning looks seemingly ripped out of a magazine. But even the celebrities we regard as the most beautiful might want to change things about their appearance.

In Stamos' case, it was his nose. In his new memoir If You Would Have Told Me, the veteran actor reflected on his desire to go under the knife in the '80s during his soap opera days. He simply wanted to fix something he saw as a problem, but confessed it was for superficial reasons.

"Everyone who gets a nose job tries to find some excuse other than vanity, but let's call it what it was: vanity," Stamos said honestly. He admitted that when he saw himself on TV for the first time, all he could focus on was his nose. "'My nose is beginning to detract from my performance,'" he thought.

As a result, he decided to get a nose job, but the results weren't exactly great. "My nose [looked] kind of pushed up like Peter Pan or something," he lamented. It wasn't long before he decided to have it fixed, but for this procedure, he opted to go to another doctor: the plastic surgeon who worked on Michael Jackson. "Who better to handle the delicate task of resculpting my nose than the man who created a whole new face for M.J.?" he thought.

His investment was seemingly worth the payoff, as his career only continued to grow through the '80s and '90s. Sometimes it's better to go with the option that has the best real-life customer testimonials.
