Has Paris had cosmetic surgery ?
Hotel heiress Paris Hilton has reportedly visited a plastic surgeon in Los Angeles this week in an attempt to correct her drooping left eyelid.

The 150,000sq m facility used to be two separate gardens until it was closed more than two years ago for a makeover. It used to be open only to “families" and women. The renovated facility was to have been reopened “by the end of 2005" but got delayed for a number of reasons.
