In 2021, plastic surgery victims Igor and Grishka Bogdanov turned 70 years old. And if, as in the saying, “They grew up, but they couldn’t stand it.” No, the brothers are all right with their minds - they themselves have succeeded in science (although many scientists consider them ignorant), and they have enriched the public with knowledge by hosting a popular science program on French television for many years. It’s hard to believe now, but once upon a time the Bogdanov brothers were so beautiful that they were considered sex symbols of France.
How the faces of outrageous relatives changed after plastic surgery
The photo shows that in their youth the Bogdanov brothers were spectacular young men. Nature endowed each of the twins with gorgeous hair, delightful slightly slanted brown eyes, courageous facial features and smooth dark skin (according to family legend, their mother’s father was a black American, opera singer Roland Hayes).

Having become idols of their time, the brothers dreamed of remaining forever at the zenith of fame. They desperately did not want to grow old, especially Grishka. In pursuit of elusive youth, in the early 90s of the last century, the brothers decided to have their first plastic surgery and lay down on the operating table together. Having undergone a circular lift and for some reason inserted silicone implants into their naturally massive chins, our heroes did not look better, which is confirmed by the photos of the Bogdanov brothers before and after plastic surgery.

Having gotten rid of wrinkles and ptosis (tissue drooping due to gravity), the brothers decided to “work” on the shape of their cheekbones and lips. Severely sunken cheeks and unnaturally high cheekbones indicate the removal of Bisha's lumps (fatty tissue of the cheeks) and contouring with silicone filler (it differs from hyaluronic filler in that it remains in the tissues for life).
Obviously, a similar filler was “pumped” into the brothers’ lips, increasing their mouths to monstrous sizes.
The Bogdanov brothers did not change immediately; they took several years to achieve the title of “victims of plastic surgery”
Reference. The silicone-based drug used by the Bogdanov brothers to “correct” one’s appearance tends to migrate—there is no guarantee that the gel will remain in the place where it was injected for the rest of its life. This probably explains the bumps and depressions on the twins' faces that they can no longer get rid of.
Blepharoplasty also turned out to be unsuccessful: instead of an open, youthful look, our heroes received slitted eyes that made them look like another victim of plastic surgery, Jocelyn Wildenstein, better known as “Catwoman.”

The icing on the cake: the Bogdanov brothers deny that they had plastic surgery! They are believed by genetic scientists who suspect a rare disease in men associated with dysfunction of the pituitary gland, manifested in thickening of the bones of the skull and limbs.
Who are the Bogdanov brothers, and why are they scary to look at?
Igor and Grishka Bogdanov are famous French showmen with a Russian surname and Slavic origin. In France, the twin brothers are known as Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff. Today they are rightfully considered the most famous victims of plastic surgery on the planet.
The first success came to the Bogdanovs back in the early 80s. At that time, they were building a successful career on French television, and even received offers to act in films. On the wave of professional success, the brothers decided to try on themselves the achievements of plastic surgery, which at that time was just beginning to develop. The Bogdanovs became real pioneers of radical plastic surgery among celebrities. In pursuit of youth and beauty, they began to undergo one plastic surgery after another.
And everything would have been fine if, at the very beginning of experiments with his appearance, Bogdanov had not come across a crooked plastic surgeon, who only worsened the situation. As a result, Igor and Grishka had to undergo a couple more operations to correct the consequences of their first unsuccessful experience with plastic surgery. Well, then off we go. Numerous surgical interventions on their appearance turned the Bogdanovs into the living embodiment of Frankenstein.
Igor and Grishka really look like heroes of creepy horror films. In recent years, the men's faces have become disfigured and turned into a creepy mask. It would seem that with such an appearance, they can hardly boast of success in their personal lives, but no. Each of the brothers has a busy personal life. For example, the French press writes that Igor never experienced a lack of female attention. He was always surrounded by only the most beautiful women.
Igor has three official marriages under his belt. His first chosen one was actress Genevieve Grand, who in 1976 gave birth to Igor’s son. In 2015, Igor, unexpectedly for everyone, suddenly announced that he was renouncing his son, because... All these years I suspected my ex-wife of infidelity. Igor’s second wife was the daughter of Count Marc-Antoine d’Oultremont, Lyudmila, from whose marriage three children were born. And finally, Igor’s third wife was the writer Amelie de Bourbon de Parme, who is a distant relative of King Louis XVI. In this union, two more children were born. As you can see, Igor chooses women who are not easy, but with a substantial dowry.
However, Igor’s third marriage soon fell apart. At the Cannes Film Festival, he appeared in the company of the charming model Julie Jardon, whom he introduced as his new common-law wife. The fact that the couple is separated by a 34-year age difference, according to Julie, does not bother her at all. But what about a completely disfigured face? The question remains open.
Jardon claims that she is crazy about Igor, and is ready to spend the rest of her life with him. The couple often appears at various fashionable resorts, nightclubs and social events.
Another Bogdanov was never officially married, but at the same time he was also not deprived of the attention of the fair sex. He has a reputation as a ladies' man and a heartthrob. Today, the Bogdanov brothers continue to perform plastic surgeries, which in their case have long become commonplace. A countless number of lifts, implants in the cheeks and chins, as well as Botox in the lips did not make them more beautiful and younger, but rather, on the contrary, turned them into real monsters, and a living example of what a pathological love for plastic surgery can lead to. But many still think that only women are obsessed with reshaping their own appearance. Igor and Grishka completely refute this statement.
Many fans of the Bogdanovs have already forgotten the time when they were quite cute twins who hosted a popular science fiction TV show on French television. Unfortunately, the 80s are long gone, and along with them, the last brains of the Bogdanov brothers evaporated, which are creepy to even look at, let alone be in close proximity to them.

Television career
Their popularity began when they published the book Keys to Science Fiction in 1976. They continued to actively give out interviews on this topic. Soon they came to the TF1 channel, where they became the hosts of one of the sections in the “Bon Appetit” program. In it, the presenter Igor Bogdanov and his brother talked about all sorts of scientific phenomena and paid a lot of attention to robotics.
In 1979, their most popular show, called “Time X,” launched. In it they popularized science, in particular astronomy and quantum physics. Their distinctive feature and the secret of their popularity was the manner of drawing parallels between real scientific facts and popular plots of science fiction films.
In 1982, they launched a new show called 2002: A Future Odyssey. And since 1989 they have been running the “Future” project, which is published once a week. They also implemented several more projects, but less successful, and many of them were criticized for being unscientific.
Since 2010, the brothers have run their own television magazine, which now airs on France 5, and also regularly teach at the cosmology department of a private university in Belgrade.
Also, since 2015, they have become one of the co-hosts of the ever-popular show “Fort Boyard” in France, in which participants are asked tricky questions about scientific experiments. As a reward for correct answers, you are given hints to help you find the keyword.
Biography of twins
In 1949, cute twins were born in France. Two beautiful boys were born into the family of Prince Ostasenko-Bogdanov, who immigrated to France from St. Petersburg, and his wife Maria Kolovrat-Krakovskaya. Already at an early age, boys showed a special craving for natural sciences. Physics became a special passion for both of them. After studying at a prestigious university, Igor and Grishka Bogdanov published their first scientific work, “The Key to Science Fiction.”
Their wild popularity led to them being invited to television as TV hosts of the science fiction show “Time X.” For ten years the show has remained on the scientific Olympus. The work of young people to study the theory of the origin of the Universe worries the greatest minds of our time to this day. When the passions around the star couple subsided, they decided to fulfill a long-standing dream - to change their own appearance. Since then, the public has been concerned not with the origin of the world according to their version, but with the origin of such disgusting faces that used to be beautiful, courageous faces.
Classical education
Brothers Igor and Grigory Bogdanov received their initial education at their grandmother's castle in Saint-Lary. Then they studied at a military school in Sorez. At the age of 14 they left for Paris.
Both had a passion for aviation. Igor even accumulated four thousand hours of flights. He received his higher education with a degree in semiotics. He defended his doctorate in theoretical physics. Gregory became a doctor of mathematics at the Paris Institute of Political Studies.
Origin of the brothers
Igor Bogdanov, like his brother Grigory, was born on August 29, 1949. They were born in the small French town of Saint-Lary, located in the department of Gers.
Their father was a Russian artist of Tatar origin. His name was Yuri Mikhailovich. At the same time, he bore the double surname Ostasenko-Bogdanov. He often called himself Prince Bogdanov, but whether he was truly of noble origin is unknown.
The twins' mother's name was Maria Dolores Franciszka Kolowrat-Krakowska. At that time she was 23 years old. Igor Bogdanov is the eldest of the brothers. He was born 45 minutes earlier than Gregory.
Personal life of twins
No matter how strange it may sound, even for such a “product” as Igor Bogdanov, after plastic surgery, there was a “merchant”. Igor’s wife was not just a woman, but a person of royal blood, Amelie de Bourbon-Parme. And this is not the first marriage of a disfigured man.
Grigory remains a bachelor, only envying his brother’s successes.
After all the operations performed, the twins' heads look as if they had bricks sewn into them. Brilliant twins after plastic surgery may themselves soon become objects of study for science fiction scientists.
The story of the Bogdanov brothers
The brothers have a Russian surname. But they have never been to Russia and do not know Russian.
Grigory and Igor Bogdanov became famous in the early 80s. It was this time that can be considered the takeoff of their career. The brothers had successful scientific careers and were able to launch their own television program, Time X. During the program, the TV presenter brothers revealed current topics in astronomy and quantum physics, analyzed famous films from these scientific fields, and analyzed popular scientific literature.
The twins inherited their beautiful appearance from their maternal grandfather (popular opera singer Roland Hayes). In their youth, the brothers had no end to female fans. The Bogdanovs' father is an aristocratic Russian artist who moved to France during the war. The brothers' mother is also from a count's family. The twin brothers actively studied their ancestry as children, when they lived on their grandmother's family estate in Saint-Lary. It was Grandma Bertha who instilled a love of science in the twins. The twins loved to read since childhood and spent a lot of time in the library. After moving to the capital of France for the duration of their university studies, the twin brothers realized that they wanted to connect their lives with television.
The Bogdanov brothers got a beautiful appearance
Before plastic surgery, the brothers were known to the world for the scandal due to their book “God and Science”. The brothers were accused of plagiarism and ignorance of scientific terms. However, the book was a huge success due to the fact that the authors inserted an abundance of terms into it. The hype died down, and the brothers even defended their Ph.D. theses. In the early 2000s, well-known physicists declared that the brothers’ works had no scientific value.
The French National Committee for Research in Mathematics and Theoretical Physics recognized that the brothers’ work was profanation. But in 2014, the twins took over the post of heads of the cosmology laboratory at a non-state university in Serbia. And the brothers continue their television career even now, only it is less connected with science.
Despite all the accusations against them, they can boast of education. Igor has a doctorate in theoretical physics, and Gregory has a doctorate in mathematics.
