Kate Gosselin had oddly spiked eyebrows and a noticeably smoother face as she ran errands in Pennsylvania on Monday.

The reason? After comparing before and after photos (left), plastic surgeons tell UsMagazine.com the reality mom, 35, had botox treatments gone wrong.

PHOTOS: How Kate's look -- and hair! -- have changed over the years

"She looked much better in the earlier photo: great hair, nice smile and a normal brow position," says Dr. Michael Olding, the chief of The George Washington University's division of plastic surgery.

In the "after" photo, she "has the typical appearance of Dysport or Botox poorly placed in the space between the brows where frown lines occur," adds Olding. But because Gosselin didn't have any injectables put in her forehead, "the lateral part of her brow is elevated in an abnormally high position, which my patients refer to as McDonald's arches!"

Explains NYC-based Dr. Steven Pearlman, "The center of her eyebrows are dropped and spread, which can happen from Botox treatment of the forehead frown lines."

Pearlman believes Gosselin may have been injected in the shape of a "V" on her forehead, meaning the muscles near her temple weren't affected "so they over act, giving this Jack Nicholson type of look! Her upper eyelids look a little hollow, which can be as a result of the brows being pulled upward."

Gosselin's surgeon is slammed by ScientificSkin.com owner Dr. Kenneth Beer: "This is a bad injection technique with poor placement. The injections were done in a cookbook pattern with no consideration for her particular anatomy. Her outer brow is too peaked, which gives her a devilish appearance."

Luckily for Gosselin, the botched Botox "can be corrected by a few injections above her eyebrows to let them drop a bit," says Dr. Tony Youn. "Or by just waiting a few months for the Botox effects to subside."

This isn't Gosselin's first plastic surgery.

Us Weekly has reported the Twist of Kate star consulted her bodyguard, Steve Neild (with whom she has denied having an affair), before undergoing a March 2009 breast enhancement. After delivering sextuplets, she also got a free tummy tuck by Dr. Lawrence Glassman. (A few years later, her estranged husband, Jon, dated the doctor's 23-year-old daughter, Hailey Glassman.)

    Give me a break people! If you look at her forehead you can clearly see that she is raising her eyebrows which have also been plucked to an arch. Whats the big deal about getting botox anyways..Ive had it...Im also a mother of nine (I didnt birth them all) and I have also had a tummy tuck WHO CARES!! How many moms out there honestly can say if they could afford it they wouldnt do it???

    She's a walking disaster. Spending all this money on plastic surgery when she should really think about her kids' futures. She's not going to be a TV mom forever and she is currently job-less. She needs to stop investing all her money in plastic surgery and start saving for her children's college/university tuitions.

    One word: "fake" sums up Kate.

    get a grip people, she is scowling is all! why do people rush into the whole...omg she had something done! even if she did or any star for that matter, who the heck cares? if i had buckets of money i would most definitely go for a nip and tuck here and there!

    I think Kate just wanted to convert into the devil and that she did!!

  • July 03, 2010 - 11:40pm LoveCrazyBeautifulLife

    Wow. It's so sad now whenever I see her. I loved Jon and Kate plus 8 and ever since the divorce, they're 2 completely different people. She looks awful and scary, sorry. Wonder how their kids feel about all of this? They both can't grow up and get over the fame, it won't last 4 long. If Jon hadn't had an affair and kate wasn't so demanding and interruptive, I would still like them, IF. It's just really, really, really, really sad. I feel bad 4 them. Kate, stop trying 2 look younger, it's not working. You're just making yourself look ridiculous. Jon needs to stop dating 19 yr olds. I feel bad 4 the kids, cause they c this everyday.

    A very satisfying part of these procedures is the confidence and glow people get after they start feeling better about themselves.

    The only reason Jon is putting 20k out there is it is being taken out before he gets his pay check. Other wise the kids would get nothing from their dad. Face it Jon is a loser and his kids are last in his life.
