Mickey Rourke: Good Genes or Good Docs?

Mickey Rourke rebuilt his damaged career by playing "The Wrestler" ... and he doesn't have the scars to prove it.

Here's the 31-year-old back in 1984 (left) -- and 25 years later, the 56-year-old version earlier this year (right).

He's as good as new.

1. I would really say bad docs, he looks like a different person.

2. I have to agree with post #1. His face has a unnaturally-tight, waxy look these days. He's on his way to being the male equivalent of Joan Rivers. I do respect how much he loves his pets and he is a good actor, though.

4. Yes, where was the option for "Bad Docs"? Because they are. Look at how beautiful he was. They've butchered his lips.

8. ok, you guys at TMZ are just having us on here. Good genes/ good docs? You're just fishing for 'where is the bad docs option?'.
Maybe a more direct poll would be worst surgery on a male celebrity. My contenders are Mickey Rourke, Burt Reynolds, and Bruce Jenner...although Al Pacino gets an honorable mention.

9. Docs? Yes. "Good"? Hardly!

10. Why did he not just grow old gracefully, we all know that he is not 31 anymore. When I age I am just going to go out hella foxy!

11. NEITHER!

12. Boxing messed up his looks.

He's a great actor tho.

13. Are you kidding? TERRIBLE plastic surgery! He was so cute and now he is a bit (I'm trying to be nice) frightening. I would take a normal looking older man over a face-lift-face anyday.

14. It's docs. You can see the skin by his eyes being pulled UP.
