You all know them. That kindly old lady who lives down the street. The tiny, wrinkly, owner of the local dojo. The aged, fading seductress. The crotchety old guy who hardly ever leaves his house. Wrinkled, aged, musty... but they weren't always that way. Once upon a time they were attractive, very attractive. This will be revealed to the rest of the cast if they ever run into a Fountain of Youth, or via old photographs or perhaps just to us the viewers in a Flashback. Becomes an Actor Allusion if this is true for the actor as well (bonus points if the old photos are actual past photos of them). For instance, Diana Rigg played Cool Old Lady Olenna Tyrell on Game of Thrones, who often spoke of her former beauty, and Rigg herself was a sex symbol in the '60s. Compare Glory Days, The Chains of Commanding (for those who lose their looks due to stressful jobs), Formerly Fit (referring to those who were in great physical shape back in their prime), and White-Dwarf Starlet (for old ladies who were performers in their youth). Contrast She Is All Grown Up; Silver Fox; Really 700 Years Old; and I Was Quite a Fashion Victim. Related to I Just Want to Be Beautiful for when the character misses their old beauty, and Old People are Nonsexual when it's implied that they stopped getting around when they got older and less hot. Not to be confused with the Pokémon Platinum character. noreallife |

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Link is (benevolently) haunted by a terrifying apparition of a rotted skeleton in decaying armor who has taken it upon himself to train him in swordplay. While the game itself never shows who he once was, both Hyrule Historia and the manga reveal he had been the legendarily handsome Hero of Time. | |

Gate: Mimoza was once a student and traveling companion to the immortal Rory Mercury about 50 years ago. When the two meet again in the present, Rory doesn't recognize her, and when she figures it out, the two share a laugh about how old Mimoza had gotten while Rory stayed young. Mimoza's younger self is shown in a few flashbacks in the manga. | |

In the film adaptation of Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes, we see the character of Miss Foley: an elderly spinster schoolmarm who longs to be her young, beautiful self again. Thanks to Mr. Dark, she gets her wish and turns into the beautiful blonde that she used to be... with the added side-effect of blindness so that she can never appreciate her own beauty. Ahhhh, damn it all! The book takes a more nuanced approach to Be Careful What You Wish For: her youth is restored and her eyesight left alone — but she's not a beautiful young woman, she's an adorable eight-year-old girl... terrified, helpless, and alone having no way to convince anyone who she really is. | |

Ranma ½: Cologne, in her youth, essentially looked like a lot like her hot Chinese Amazon great-granddaughter, as was confirmed in an anime filler episode. (pictured This is how she looked at age 18◊, whereas this is how she looks at the age of 300+◊). Invoked but subverted with Happosai. Despite claiming that he was a hot blonde Bishōnen warrior in his youth, Cologne (who knew him then) reveals that the only difference between then and now is that he had fewer wrinkles and more hair. Word of God is that Genma was handsome once too, explaining how he married someone as attractive as Nodoka. The old and wrinkly Harumaki and the equally old and wrinkly Gyouko insist that female Ranma looks just like the young Gyouko. Ranma does not take the news well. Dr. Tofu's mother as well. In the flashback, she was as cute as the series' other young girls, and perhaps somewhat taller than she is in her old age. |

Bob Duncan from Good Luck Charlie is at present an overweight (though he loses some weight in later seasons), balding man whom the kids enjoy to pick on about how old he is (his exact age is not clear, but he appears to be in his 40s or 50s), but when he was young, he had pretty hair and looked similar to PJ. In one episode, PJ becomes paranoid that he'll lose his hair as well when he grows up, not helped by the fact that Bob started to lose his hair at just 25. | |

As revealed in the flashback sequences, Gran'ma Ben of Bone was definitely quite the looker. Also a gender-flipped version if you compare Lucius Down's one appearance in the flashbacks to his present appearance. Briar, Gran'ma Ben's undead sister, is a particularly extreme example. | |

In an (adult) visual novel game Large Pon Pon made by Overflow (the same maker of School Days), you're introduced to Tomoe Sawagoe, one of the heroine's mother-in-law, and Arisu Takatsukasa, the head nurse who may become one of your "love interest". Fans who have played Snow Radish Vacation will know that both characters were once very attractive and Tomoe was once a kind heiress. Justified, as year after year of stresses of Tomaru's adultery turns them into this. | |

Fire Emblem: In Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, Roy's father Lord Eliwood is only in his late 30's, but the stress of being a Reasonable Authority Figure and his bad health in recent years has certainly robbed him of his youthful appearance, causing him to look much more weathered and aged than anyone would expect. Here's how he appears in Sword Of Seals◊ and to compare how he looked in its prequel Blazing Sword set 20 years earlier.◊ In the same game, Niime claims this word for word in her A support with her grandson Hugh, and was apparently was very aware of this fact as she used her looks to con men out of all their money then leave once they couldn't spend more on her. Fire Emblem Fates has King Garon, who in his prime was basically a white-haired version of his gorgeous eldest son Prince Xander. |

BoJack Horseman: BoJack's mother Beatrice was beautiful in her youth as a debutante, and she’s bitter about how she looks post child birth, which she uses to guilt her son due to believing having him "ruined her". "You know, I was beautiful before I got pregnant". His father Butterscotch was also pretty rugged when he first met Beatrice, but by middle age he’s balding with wrinkles and a gut. BoJack himself was pretty good looking in his Horsin' Around days, but in the years after the show’s cancellation he's developed wrinkles and a pot belly. Season 6 reveals that his mane has long-since gone grey, which he has been hiding for years with black dye. After reuniting with his old Horsin' Around makeup artist, she convinces him to wash out the dye, and he remains grey-haired for the rest of the shows run. |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has an elderly Gerudo character named Muava who says she was quite a boy magnet when she was young. But she spent much of her younger years looking for the Lover's Pond where it is said people can find their true love; she never found it, and she ended up too old for the guys to find a lover. The BotW incarnation of Impa makes an appearance in the prequel Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, which takes place a century before the events of BotW. As such, she appears as a young woman, resembling her granddaughter Paya. |

In Umineko: When They Cry it's occasionally noted, and later outright confirmed, that crazy old grandpa Kinzo Ushiromiya used to look a hell of a lot like his Bishōnen grandson Battler when he was young. The manga also reveals that Kinzo's Old Retainer Genji wasn't bad-looking in his youth either. | |

The Simpsons: Grampa Simpson was in his youth voted as the most handsome boy in Albany, New York. Flashbacks to his days in the U.S military during World War 2, as well as the direct post-war years, shows him to have been quite studly. He slowly began to age after he married Mona and the two had Homer, but he fell apart completely after Mona left, quickly reducing him to a shell of his former self. Homer himself is a downplayed example. He thinks of his youth as his Glory Days, appearance-wise, but the viewers are shown that aside from a full head of hair and being much thinner, he was still kind of a goofy doofus even back then. Moe Szyslak, in his youth, was a boxer who went by the nickname of Kid Gorgeous. Because he wasn't a good boxer and the repeated face-punching destroyed his looks, he went through the nicknames of Kid Presentable, Kid Gruesome, and finally Kid Moe. Marge's mother Jacqueline was a dead-ringer for her daughter back in her youth, as shown with an old photo of her being arrested for indecent exposure at the beach (she was wearing an Old-Timey Bathing Suit, complete with sleeves). Grampa was very impressed. Hans Moleman is an elderly, pruny mole-like man, but in "Walking Big and Tall", a flashback from 30 years earlier shows that he was a well-groomed and fresh-looking man during his 4th term as the mayor of Springfield, even doing some stylish gymnastics while entering the stage. |

Elanor of Kevin & Kell was one back in the day, so much that a picture of her from her younger days got leaked onto the internet (by her son Ralph, who didn't recognize her at all. His head literally imploded when he found out). Her son-in-law Kevin, though, believes she still is. He did recognize her, after all. | |

Subverted by a clickbait article where former Playboy models from decades past reenacted their cover photos. Only one looked significantly different due to age and weight gain, and sure enough, she was the one used as the image link. All the other models were still stunningly beautiful in their 40's and 50's; some wouldn't have looked out of place in the magazine today. | |

Rose DeWitt Bukater/Dawson in James Cameron's Titanic. When her granddaughter asks if a drawing is really of her, Rose responds with "Wasn't I a dish?". The line was originally "Wasn't I a hot number?" but Gloria Stuart changed it because she thought it implied promiscuity. | |

When he gets hit with a ray that makes him twenty years younger, two separate women on two separate occasions tell him that he looks amazing, suggesting that at the very least, he's seen as attractive in-universe. It's amazing what a full head of hair and fewer wrinkles will do for you. |

Naruto: Koharu Utatane◊ is one of the elders of Konoha. Here's a pic of her in her youth◊. The same can be said about Danzo◊. The Third Hokage himself was nothing◊ to be ashamed of. Nagato was a bit of a Bishōnen before he overused his powers and rapidly aged himself. Mito◊, wife of Hashirama Senju (Shodai Hokage), was an incredible beauty who clearly passed on her good looks to her granddaughter, Tsunade. Not that she aged all that poorly,◊ but still. Tsunade herself would count were it not for the transformation technique that keeps her looking like she's in her late twenties/early thirties at all times. Without it, she apparently looks even older than she really is (we only ever see a badly wrinkled arm) thanks to her Creation Rebirth technique. For the record, her actual age is early-mid 50s. Orichimaru also counts as he was quite the bishonen when he was younger. |

In Mad Men, Roger Sterling's tape-recorded notes for his memoirs provide a pretty darned funny pair of these. Apparently, back in the late '40s, Miss Blankenship — now a standoffish and somewhat prudish old spinster — was Bert Cooper's secretary, known to all in the office as the "Queen of Perversions." And Cooper himself? In his "sexual prime," apparently making quite a few conquests (including Miss Blankenship, it seems), before being, um, cut short by an unnecessary operation at the hands of a certain Dr. Lyle Evans (whom Roger believes Cooper may have had killed). | |

Tammy Lynn Sytch is a weird example. When she first showed up in the WWF, her looks were dazzling. Then her drug consumption (along with her partner Chris Candido's) spiraled out of control and she started looking very rough. Sometime around 2004, both Candido and Sytch kicked the drugs and she started looking pretty good again. Then Candido died in a fluke surgical mishap and Sytch understandably went to pieces and piled on the pounds. | |

Dragon Ball: Bulma, who normally can't stand the Muten Roshi when he's being pervy towards her, got excited when she saw a picture of him as a young man and found it hard to believe it was him. Goku later met the young Roshi through time travel in filler. Speaking of Bulma, her and Chi-Chi get hit by this as well. Their looks, admittedly, haven't faded too much. But in comparison to their husbands, who age a lot slower due to being Saiyans, they're definitely beginning to show their age. It's particularly after the time-skips at the beginning and end of the Majin Buu Saga that the aging starts to show. However, this more due to her hairstyle. In Super, where she's even younger, she looks much cuter and younger when her hair is down. This is also the case for the Ancestral Kaioshin in the Majin Buu Arc. In his case however, its not a result of natural aging, as he's actually young-to-middle aged by Kaioshin standards, but due to him fusing with an elderly witch using the Potara Earrings, causing him to lose his youthful looks, but gain her magical powers in return. Also the case for Great Demon King Piccolo. He looks like this when he's freed from his confinement◊ and this with his youth restored◊. Also, Pan in the Spin-Off series. Though not painful on the eyes in her later age, we know how attractive her younger self looks. |

Harry Potter: The Big Bad Voldemort, whose use of Horcruxes turned him into an ugly, noseless vermin. In his younger days he was Tall, Dark, and Handsome, features he inherited from his highborn Muggle father. Grindelwald was shown to be a very handsome blond when he was younger, yet by the time of the present he has become a gaunt toothless old man. Anyone who's been to Azkaban, such as Sirius Black or Bellatrix Lestrange, will presumably suffer from this as their health and appearance deteriorate. In the movies, though, these characters suffer from Adaptational Attractiveness even after their stints in Azkaban. In Sirius' case, it varies based on his health at the time, though he's still considered fairly handsome and his good looks as a young man shine through When He Smiles. |

Tenchi Muyo!: Tenchi's father Noboyuki in Tenchi Universe is shown to be so attractive in his youth that Ryoko is even smitten with him when the cast goes back in time for the movie Tenchi In Love. Katsuhito, Tenchi's grandfather in several incarnations of the meta-series, was handsome when young. In Universe and the original OVA series, he is actually Ayeka's brother Yosho, a handsome Jurai nobleman who got stranded on Earth. He's been on earth long enough to age rather dramatically. Though this is a ruse in the OVA series and he is actually still just as youthful as ever. |

Calvin's mom from Calvin and Hobbes. In this strip, Calvin finds an old prom picture and asks his dad that who's that "bimbo" next to him. She turns out to be his mother. Given that Calvin then comments on the "funky hairdo", this could also overlap with I Was Quite a Fashion Victim. Then again, although she's a plain, conservatively-dressed homemaker, she's still not a bad-looking woman (well, as far as cartoon women drawn by Bill Watterson are concerned), is still slim with brown hair. She's may have lost the "glam" but she's still a cute young-ish woman. |

Rocko's Modern Life: There was an episode that does this with all the elderly people (or, technically, animals, since it is Rocko's Modern Life and all) in the vicinity. Rocko and Heffer were on a cruise in The Bermuda Triangle with Heffer's grandpa (among other old people), and this gigantic clock came along and completely switched around everyone's ages — the youngsters (Rocko and Heffer) were now old geezers and the old people (Grandpa Wolfe, et al.) were all young again. After all, it was the Bermuda Triangle, and strange, unexplainable things were bound to occur. A couple of episodes feature Ed Bighead like this, in one he was tall, handsome, and muscular and had a buzz cut before he became old, and another features him looking like a green-skinned Lex Luthor before Heffer while working as a paperboy hit him with a newspaper that caused him to fall into a blender destroying his face. |

King of the Hill: Bill was still a bit homely, but he was a popular, confident athlete with a lush head of hair in High School. Cotton Hill was a tall, handsome, powerful soldier in WWII. Then he had his shins shredded to pieces via a machine gun and his feet were attached to his knees, causing to go from 6'4" to 5' in height. By the time he married Tilly and had Hank, he looked like a brown-haired version of his current pruny, decrepit self. |

Gytha Ogg (before she was simply "Nanny") as well. She was the subject for Leonard of Quirm's legendary 'Mona Ogg' (the teeth follow you around the room), being considered a fair candidate for the World's Most Beautiful Woman, and official art backs this up. certainly had an active love life... Granny Weatherwax also, although she was "handsome" or "striking" rather than "beautiful". Even in the current stories' time she's not the stereotypical ugly old witch, having good teeth, good posture, and an average-size nose (much to her annoyance) - indeed, there's some argument that she might actually have improved with age. Certainly, even in her 70s, she has literally flawless hair and feet despite what can only be called a minimal beauty regime, and when she gets dressed up in Maskerade, the owner of the Opera House (who, thanks to Nanny's mischief, thinks Granny is a retired courtesan) remarks, impressed, that he can certainly see how she earned her money. And Topsy Lavish (nee Turvy) from Making Money. She was a music hall girl before becoming Mr Lavish's mistress, then wife, and finally, widow. Mrs. Whitlow, who thanks to a bit of a time blip in The Last Continent was revealed to have once been a complete knockout. |

Howard's mother, Mrs. Wolowitz from The Big Bang Theory never appears on-screen, but she's described as an overweight woman with facial hair. She told Sheldon tearfully that she was quite a looker when she was young as men would wait in line showering her with gifts of candy (which she ate). Additionally, it's implied several times that menopause has been really hard on her; that would explain the facial hair, and at least one episode has her using estrogen cream. | |

X-Men: First Class: Charles Xavier was boyishly beautiful during his youth with thick, wavy hair (not that he looks bad as a bald, older gentleman). Erik Lehnsherr was a classic example of Tall, Dark, and Handsome when he was a young man (and he has aged gracefully over the years). Hank McCoy used to be a dorky Pretty Boy before his Beast transformation. |

The Twilight Zone (1959): Played for Drama in the Season 1 episode "The Sixteen-Millimeter Shrine"; an aging White-Dwarf Starlet named Barbara Trenton is utterly obsessed with her Glory Days back when she was young, beautiful and at the top of her career, to the point that she wants to do nothing other than endlessly watch her own old movies in her mansion. Her manager Danny tries to help her face reality, but nothing he does makes her snap out of it. In the end, Barbara gets her wish, as she somehow wills herself to become part of her own movies, where she reunites with her old co-stars and regains her youth and looks. | |

In Bram Stoker's Dracula, the count invokes this trope to an extent. He at first appears decrepit and elderly, but he soon gorges himself on blood and appears youthful and perhaps even handsome, though since most of the novel is written from the protagonist's perspective, he is described with less loving terms at times. | |

To her ire, the change is permanent because Harry thought the method to remove the outfit was a flaw and "fixed" it, therefore she's permanently in her twenties and if she doesn't want to go around in lingerie, she has to wear something "slatternly" (in her words). | |

Since in the Stickverse's good-aligned heaven you look like your own idealized version of yourself, she appears as the very attractive nineteen-year-old woman she once was, to Roy's Oedipal chagrin. Roy's dad shows him a picture of mum in a bikini. The Empress of Blood was shown to be a sleek and slender, ass-kicking, young red dragon in Tarquin's flashback. Now very much larger, she barely ever moves and is a morbidly obese lump with wings (yet is somehow still able to fly). |

Ditto for Fabulous Moolah. Although there isn't currently any footage available of Moolah in the very early days of her wrestling career (1949-early 1950's, when wrestling shows were almost never recorded or televised for anyone other than the biggest stars such as George Wagner, the original Gorgeous George), there are a number of anecdotes from her peers at the time about how attractive she was. Candids and promotional photographs also exist that confirms this. Unfortunately, like many of her male counterparts, her looks faded fast thanks to the punishing nature of wrestling, both in the ring, and outside of it. | |

Archie's Weird Mysteries has this happen to Miss Grundy in the episode "Twisted Youth" when the adults of Riverdale are reverted to teenagers. She spends most of the episode aggressively pursuing Reggie, who's about to give in and kiss her when the effect's reversed. | |

Played for drama with Ma-Ha-Suchi in Exalted. In the First Age, he was known as the "Wolf with the Red Roses", was ridiculously Bishōnen, and had a Motivation of "Bed every Celestial Exalt." And he almost pulled it off. Then came the Usurpation, and he was forced to flee into the Wyld... where he ended up stuck in the form of a hideous goat-wolf-satyr... thing. No wonder he wants to destroy civilization. | |

American Dad!: Francine is quite an attractive lady, which Stan bluntly points out is the only reason he married her in the first place. When she quits her diet and exercise routine, she becomes physically repulsive, with an obese structure, facial hair, hairy arms, and rotting teeth. She returns to normal in the end, though. | |

In Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, Roy's father Lord Eliwood is only in his late 30's, but the stress of being a Reasonable Authority Figure and his bad health in recent years has certainly robbed him of his youthful appearance, causing him to look much more weathered and aged than anyone would expect. Here's how he appears in Sword Of Seals◊ and to compare how he looked in its prequel Blazing Sword set 20 years earlier.◊ | |

In a similar vein, you have "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who before adopting the shaved, goateed, toughest-sumbitch-in-the-room persona, had a long mane (though already thinning on top) of blonde hair and wrestled as "Stunning" Steve Austin in a pretty-boy heel gimmick. | |

Edna Turnblad, in the 2007 film version of Hairspray. On the Making of DVD extra, the wardrobe designer says that John Travolta wanted to play Edna as someone who was a real "buxom babe" in her day (hence the cinched waists, pencil skirts, and other outfits reminiscent of Sophia Loren and other voluptuous actresses of the period). After she kicks Wilbur out, Edna cries over her wedding picture, which depicts a much younger, thinner Edna. | |

In A Brother's Price, Jerin is told that he's quite a looker. (Which surprises him, as he doesn't often talk to women who aren't family). Later, the reader learns that Jerin looks very much like his grandfather. He remembers the kindly old man fondly, and sometimes wonders how his grandfather managed to wrap the grandmothers around his little fingers, being such a soft-spoken, gentleman. He finds out. | |

Quite a few of the older members of Overwatch have fallen into this. Soldier: 76 has gone from a total stud◊ to a grizzled, grey-haired old man. Ana once resembled a hotter version of her daughter, Pharah. These days she's missing an eye and has gained a few wrinkles and grey hair. Reinhardt once resembled a male model in powered armor◊. While he's still fairly handsome its in a much more gruff and rugged way, his years of fighting and adventuring are definitely starting to catch up to him. Probably the most dramatic is Reaper, who used to be the very Tall, Dark, and Handsome Gabriel Reyes... until he became the undead horror he is now. While we haven't seen his unmasked face yet, the reactions of characters who have seen it indicates he's horribly deformed. |

Sin City: "That Yellow Bastard", AKA Roarke Junior, was once a rich, handsome playboy (as well as a sadistic, murdering pedophile), until John Hartigan chased him down, shot him in the crotch, blew off his ear and right hand, and beat him into a coma. His father, the evil, corrupt Senator Roarke, used his money and influence to have Junior's body and genitals restored using advanced new medical techniques. They worked, but also transformed Junior into a foul-smelling, severely jaundiced Gonk who is now as monstrous on the outside as he always was on the inside. | |

X-Men Film Series: X-Men: First Class: Charles Xavier was boyishly beautiful during his youth with thick, wavy hair (not that he looks bad as a bald, older gentleman). Erik Lehnsherr was a classic example of Tall, Dark, and Handsome when he was a young man (and he has aged gracefully over the years). Hank McCoy used to be a dorky Pretty Boy before his Beast transformation. X-Men: Days of Future Past: Major William Stryker was a Hunk in 1973. X-Men: Apocalypse: Nightcrawler was an elfin cutie pie during his adolescence. |

However, in flashbacks to his 20s he is a full-blown Pretty Boy, and it is very clear that age and a few years of homelessness and sleeping rough on the streets of Kamurocho have done a number on his appearance. | |

Linea/Ke'ra from Stargate SG-1 is practically unrecognisable after her de-aging from pleasant seeming older lady into a cute and kind doctor, science geek, and Genki Girl who hooks up with Daniel. The amnesia element is crucial, because while the looks really throw everyone off, it's the genuinely different personality that really misleads people. Then it's discovered just who she really is, and there's a Mass "Oh, Crap!". | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: The trope image comes from a scene in which Ty Lee sees a picture of two young women and asks who it is. Turns out it's the Creepy Twins Lo and Li, who then make the same pose as in the picture and make Zuko gag. Mai covers his eyes when they take off their robes to show their bikinis. "The Avatar and the Fire Lord" reveals that Avatar Roku (who grew into a distinguished older man) looked pretty damn good in his younger◊ days◊. "The Puppetmaster" shows that Hama was quite attractive as a young woman. By the time of The Legend of Korra, Zuko has also lost his good looks with age, having traded them for a more distinguished appearance - not unlike his great-grandfather, Avatar Roku. |

The Legend of Zelda: In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Link is (benevolently) haunted by a terrifying apparition of a rotted skeleton in decaying armor who has taken it upon himself to train him in swordplay. While the game itself never shows who he once was, both Hyrule Historia and the manga reveal he had been the legendarily handsome Hero of Time. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has an elderly Gerudo character named Muava who says she was quite a boy magnet when she was young. But she spent much of her younger years looking for the Lover's Pond where it is said people can find their true love; she never found it, and she ended up too old for the guys to find a lover. The BotW incarnation of Impa makes an appearance in the prequel Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, which takes place a century before the events of BotW. As such, she appears as a young woman, resembling her granddaughter Paya. |

Halo's Dr. Halsey was apparently quite good-looking when she was young. Case in point, it's said that Cortana's appearance was based on that of her as a young woman. | |

Fallout: Tandi in Fallout is shown as a rather attractive young woman from the small town of Shady Sands. She reappears 80 years later in Fallout 2, aged 96. Mother Pearl◊, matriarch of the Boomers in Fallout: New Vegas, is a wise old lady who understands the need to break out of their reclusiveness just a little. Once you drag that old B-29 out of Lake Mead, Loyal (the Boomers' master technologist who's just as old as Pearl) demonstrates that he apparently has excellent knowledge the shape of Pearl's former figure by adorning the restored plane with nose art depicting her from way back when◊. |

Steven Universe: Greg, Steven's dad is currently a pudgy, balding man with a scruffy beard, but "Story for Steven" shows that he had almost literal rock-star good looks when he was younger. His bandmate Vidalia was a slim attractive woman in her younger days, in the present she's a little wrinkled and unkempt. |

In the Incarnations of Immortality series, Niobe Kaftan was considered the most beautiful woman of her generation. In her middle age, she let herself go because she lost her second husband and no longer cared about her looks. When she becomes an Incarnation of Fate, she chooses not to regain her old looks even though she can at any time. One of the only times she regains her old looks is when she gets seduced by Nicolai. The elderly Nicolai says that when he was young, he could very easily imitate a woman and seduce all the men around him. | |

Psychonauts 2: Ford Cruller is shown to have been handsome and well-groomed when he was a younger man. Not so much when he's an elderly, balding man with wild hair. Raz's grandmother is squat and small, but flashbacks to her youth as a member of the Psychic Seven shows that she was a tall and beautiful woman. |

How I Killed Your Master starts off with the apprentice searching for the eponymous evil master's killer, who is the narrator and central hero of the story, who is an old man. Cut later in the story to when he was 10 years old, and then later when he's in his 20s. We also got a look at the Five Dragons when Master Fei unveiled the truth about Wong's father, and apparently Fei had quite a head of hair way back when. | |

By 1911, he is a modestly dressed, sickly-looking man that appears elderly. In II, Javier was suave, clean-cut and very stylish. He can be found around camp polishing his shoes and many of his outfits include sharp vests, ascots and matching hats. By I, he has grown filthy and thin with a distinct rat-like appearance. |

The Cleveland Show: The Brown family's morbidly obese neighbor Kendra, in her youth, was a svelte, gorgeous movie starlet with a string of rich husbands and lovers. Though for some odd reason, she rode around on her signature electric scooter even back then, despite obviously being able to walk with no problem. There's also Donna. Who with a heavy dose of beauty enhancements, hides the fact that she aged badly Invoked in one episode where the family attends the San Diego Comic-Con, and it's revealed that Donna once starred in a Blaxploitation movie called "Hot-Coco Bang-Bang". Rallo is visibly disturbed just how badly his mother has aged since the movie was made. Cleveland himself hasn't changed too much visually, he's even had his moustache since high school, but he was portrayed as much more athletic as a teenager (the school baseball team even retired his number), and more suave and confident in college. |

The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel: Many Elders were beautiful before they underwent the change and became human-monster hybrids. Someone says of Areop-Enap "the change was particularly cruel to her" and she's now a Giant Spider. Coatlicue the Archon was once agelessly beautiful, but performed numerous experiments on herself and transformed into a monster. Josh is lucky that when Dee summons her, he hypnotizes him so that he only sees her beautiful form. Tsagaglalal and the Witch of Endor appear as elderly women but can take on a younger form if they wish. |

Blasphemous has Our Lady of the Charred Visage. She was formerly known as �urea, a woman who had a face that was so beautiful and pious that many sculptors used her likeness as a model. Over time, the people of Cvstodia saw her beauty as a sign of divinity, replacing their religious images with �urea's likeness, to her horror; she then poured hot oil onto her face. Shortly, she wrapped her face in gauze, wore a golden mask over it, and entered a convent. The Penitent One can see the hideous aftermath of her self-inflicted facial horror. | |

Orange Is the New Black: Red says she was once quite attractive and laments the effects that age has on her looks. Flashbacks reveal she was indeed quite a pretty young woman. Norma was a lovely red-haired girl when she was young. |

In Recess, Spinelli discovers a photo that shows that Miss Finster was quite the looker when she and Spinelli's grandmother were entertaining the troops in the Pacific. In the film based on the series, we see flashbacks from the teachers. Miss Finster might have looked better when she was younger, but she still had the exact same raspy voice. Not to mention the fact that Dr. Phillium Benedict still has the hots for her. Eww! | |

In an episode of Family Matters, Eddie's grandmother Estelle does a photo show-and-tell for his class, revealing that Grandfather's plane back in WWII was called the "Brown Bombshell." Which may have been named after her, as the next picture she shows is of herself as she was back in those days - her knock-out looks are enough to get a reaction from the rest of the boys in the class. Eddie is mortified, but Estelle waves it off ("Ah, let the boys express themselves."). | |

Wendy Oldbag of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney claims in the first game that she was a mildly successful film actress in her youth. She also has a tendency to use Puppy-Dog Eyes an awful lot, implying there was a time in her life when that maneuver was actually effective. In one (rather strange, even by Ace Attorney Standards) commissioned side-story involving the ghost of Wendy's Identical Grandmother and said grandmother's lover (very, very long story) proves that Wendy was right about being attractive. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: The morbidly obese merchant prince Illyrio Mopatis reveals that the sculpture of the beautiful young bravo in his courtyard was him at the age of 16. King Robert Baratheon was renowned as a Tall, Dark, and Handsome heroic figure who captured the hearts of many young women. However, by the time we meet him in the present day, he has few of these traits left, with Victory Is Boring and Lonely at the Top being such that drinking, feasting, and screwing the near-endless supply of prostitutes provided to him is pretty much all he does in lieu of taking care of himself, resulting in his descent into a fat Jaded Washout. His bastard son Gendry resembles Robert as a youth, which causes many of Robert's old acquaintances to do a double-take when they meet him. Seeing as the Great Houses of Westeros all seem to have really good genes, several nobles that aren't described as attractive are this. Catelyn remembers her sister Lysa as a pretty girl before she let herself go. House Lannister has a precedent of this if Cersei has bothered to pay attention. Her Cool Aunt, Genna thank-the-gods-I'm-not-a-natural-Frey, was renowned as being the gracefully Hot Wife in her badly lopsided arranged marriage before she "mellowed" into her Iron Lady, Large and in Charge, Big Beautiful Woman self today. Although still not exactly painful on the eyes, she's not a relatively willowy sixteen anymore — and, proud of it! Cersei herself is getting there. While still quite fetching, she notes during her naked shame walk through King's Landing that her belly is covered in stretch marks from having three children, and the impact of nursing them has made her once bountiful bosom start to droop. Many historical Targaryen kings described as ugly-looking were attractive hunks in their youth, like Aegon IV, who degraded into an Adipose Rex later in life, and Aerys II, who became a haggard old man. In fact, it's easier to count Targaryen kings who weren't noted for their handsomeness: Aenys I (tall but weedy), Viserys I and Daeron II (both described as pot-bellied even while young), Baelor I (frail and thin), Jaehaerys II (sickly and pasty-looking), and Aerys I (spindly and bookish). Aegon V inverted this; he was frail as a youth, but grew into a handsome man as an adult. |

One Piece: Whitebeard was shown to be quite good-looking when he was younger. Age and illness caught up to him. You would have never guessed, but Kokoro used to be HOT◊ (WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS) when she was younger. Yes, this Kokoro◊. Several high-ranking marines, as seen in the color spread of Chapter 691. Examples include Tsuru, Sengoku, and Garp. See it for yourself◊. Some of the senior members of the Donquixote Family were like this, but for some reason or another, they began to let themselves go. The biggest example is Señor Pink: this massive Fat Bastard in baby clothes once was VERY Tall, Dark, and Handsome but he "let go" after his son died and his wife lost it. Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin definitely didn't age too well in the last twenty years, as she was quite pretty at 28 and even at 48 she didn't look bad at all, but at her current age of 68, the endless candy binges have clearly gotten to her. Mother Carmel looked gorgeous when she was still a Sister and 43 years old, but changed drastically when she got older in the next 38 years. Downplayed, but Boa Marigold used to be as sexy as her big sister Hancock when they were teens. Nowadays, Hancock is the World's Most Beautiful Woman, whilst Marigold is a giant round-bellied no-necked muscular hulk as wide as she is tall. Shinobu used to be a feared member of the Oniwabanshu known for her beauty and technique. Now she's an ugly middle-aged woman whose skills as a ninja are questionable at best. Don't you ever mention that though, unless you want to be the next target of her trademark Ninja Arts: Ball Crusher. Buckin is a short and ugly crone, but as her clone Stussy and her time as part of the Rocks Pirates indicate, she looked much prettier as a young woman. Like Buckin above, Gloriosa/Elder Nyon is a short, ugly crone that was a hottie back when she was younger. |

Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy VII, Hojo lacks his crooked back, unhealthy pallor, and sunken brow in the flashback where he betrays Prof Gast. Though for some reason young Hojo looks exactly the same as old Hojo in Dirge of Cerberus. Final Fantasy VII Remake shows us that back when President Shinra was a young upstart he was the spitting image of his son Rufus, via an old photo. Verstael from Final Fantasy XV, while there aren't any pictures of him in his younger years, his biological son, Prompto, was created via cloning, so it's safe to assume that he used to be quite good looking. |

The witches in Stardust look like old crones, but they all used to be Hot Witches in their youth. When one of them uses the power of a star to regain her youth, she returns to her old beautiful self. The very first thing she does is take off her dress and stand naked (with Shoulders-Up Nudity) in front of a mirror so she can admire her newly rejuvenated body, even winking flirtatiously at herself. Her sisters, still old, are caught between looking on in envious awe and rolling their eyes. | |

Game of Thrones: Similar to the source material, Robert Baratheon let himself go after becoming king, becoming jaded and lazy, while his son Gendry resembles how he used to look. The blind, 100+-year-old Maester Aemon tells Sam that he used to be a real ladies man back in the day. When Sam finds this hard to believe, Aemon asks if Sam assumed he always looked like a wizened old man, and Sam apologizes. Lady Olenna regales Margaery with how she seduced her future husband away from his betrothed, claiming she was "very, very, good." This doubles as an Actor Allusion; Diana Rigg is best known for her roles in the '60s as a sultry action heroine in The Avengers (1960s) and On Her Majesty's Secret Service. King Aegon II Targaryen. Injuries from the war messed up his, as Joffrey puts it, handsome visage. |

When Luigi encounters her in a bathroom where he can see the Sexy Silhouette of a svelte woman taking a bath behind the curtain, but once he moves it, Miss Petunia is actually a pig-like Brawn Hilda. It's implied the silhouette is what she used to look like before she gained weight. | |

In Disco Elysium, your player character was known for being extremely handsome in his 20s and 30s, but a combination of severe alcohol abuse, repulsive midlife-crisis-induced fashion choices and suicidal depression has mangled his looks along with most of his appeal to others. He deliberately uses a photo of himself from his youth on his police badge, as a way of denying the extent of the damage. He still retains traces of his good looks which a few characters remark on, with Lena noting his appealing cleft chin and Kim suggesting he'd look fine if he tidied himself up a little. | |

She’s quite prideful over this, with Ayla trying to find ways to provide her with medicine and beauty treatments that wouldn't bruise her ego. Crozie tries not to show it, but she's very appreciative of this. | |

Doctor Who: The First Doctor claims this about himself (using almost this exact phrasing) in the novel "The Plotters" when offended that the Historical Domain Character of the Week isn't sexually interested in him. The Lady Cassandra was definitely this, given that she's now a living trampoline. The Face of Boe might also be this, if the very heavily hinted truth of his origin as Captain Jack Harkness is true. |

Kari Byron of Mythbusters has zigzagged this. One of her earliest appearances on the show was as the "butt model" for the "Airplane Toilet" myth. She only agreed to it because she figured the show would be some nothing cable series. After the show became massively popular, she bemoaned on one of the specials that when anyone searches for her, "What's the first thing that comes up? My butt!". However, she later at least partly reversed this outlook, noting "What woman wouldn't want a record of how great her butt looked in her twenties?". | |

Child of the Storm: Minerva McGonagall is a stern and elderly witch. She also used to be a Head-Turning Beauty so striking that Bucky Barnes, her wartime beau, actually walked into a wall when he first saw her. The First Class of X-Men play with this, thanks to all of them having undergone a somewhat mysterious de-aging incident involving an island by the name of Krakoa about a decade or so prior to the start of the story. As a result, a group in their 50s and 60s now look like they're in their early 30s or 40s. However, Magneto and Professor Xavier still qualify - while Magneto is still very "handsome in an older guy sort of way" to quote Carol, he used to be positively dashing, while Professor Xavier, now "distinguished", is still bald and no longer the downright Pretty Boy he was as a young man. Alison Carter, Peggy's little sister, is by no means bad looking, being a statuesque and curvy blonde who's able to pass for a woman in her forties when she's just past 60, but she's also lived a very busy life and settled into comfortable middle age. Actually subverted. Being the secret daughter of Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter, she's a hereditary Super-Soldier and has had to use make-up and clothing to disguise the fact that she doesn't look past her late 20s. |

Pushing Daisies: The Darling Mermaid Darlings are not old enough to completely lose their luster, but the years have not been kind to them. Jackson Lucas, the diamond thief from the episode "Pidgeon," plays this trope so straight that it borders on lampshading — though it does not hurt that we first meet him as a corpse. |

Sophia in The Golden Girls: It became something of a Canon Discontinuity. In one episode, she mentioned she was a natural redhead, and in another she said she was "a tall, voluptuous blonde with a butt like granite." Although she's also claimed (among other things) that Stalin, Roosevelt, and Churchill actually held the Yalta to fight for her hand in marriage, having differing hair colors isn't the most outlandish thing she's said. While Sophia's claims are the wildest, it's implied that all the Girls were quite lovely in their younger days. | |

The third manga special in Karin shows the titular vampire's parents when they first met. Carrera was damn cute, and Henry was much better-looking, also—but perhaps even more so than Henry was his father, James, who was very handsome. (Although as of that point, James's only appearance had him dried up and dead, so anything would've been better than that.) | |

South Park episode "The List" has the ghost of Abraham Lincoln take Kyle, who was ranked last on a list made by the girls ranking the boys' looks, to the home of an older woman named Nancy Pinkerton. Lincoln says that Nancy was very beautiful when she was younger (we never actually see what she used to look like however), and because she was handed everything and given insincere praise due to her looks, she never developed character. And now that her looks have faded, she is left with nothing of substance. | |

A poignant bit in Barney Miller when an older woman insisted that a local art gallery had "smut in the window". The smut in question turned out to be a tasteful nude portrait of herself in younger days. She'd been lovers with the now-dead artist, and the picture was a private endearment, never meant for exhibition. | |

From Bruno the Bandit there's Bruno's mother, Eunyce, who - in several flashbacks - is seen in her past identity: Eunyce, Warrior Hottie! Sadly, she still wears her old, Stripperific costume waaaaay too often. Three of her equally elderly friends showed up in one storyline as well, revealing that they also used to be Warrior Hotties, but unfortunately, unlike Eunyce, they hadn't kept up their fighting skills in old age, so they got curbstomped by the villains (one of whom was a grandson). Same thing with Bruno's father Eustace, who was exactly as studly and suave as Bruno in his youth (albeit with beard stubble instead of a moustache). In the present, he's fat, balding, and lost an arm at some point before he retired as a thief. |

Cantr II: Averted, strangely. You can change at will your character's description, but there's no need to update it. Cue the very old (ingame term for someone over the age of 80 ingame years) "looking" the precise same as when she was 22. A most our-favourite-word example, involves a ~140 year old mundane man looking like Vash but even prettier. | |

The legendary Harley Race once wrestled as "Handsome" Harley Race in the AWA in the early '60s. Those who only know him as the rough, rugged world champion of the '70s and '80s will be surprised to know that he was once a bleach blonde pretty boy◊. On another note, the second man in that picture is Larry "The Ax" Hennig, another wrestler who's mostly known as a big, ugly brute of a man.◊ Fans wouldn't recognize him in his "Pretty Boy" Larry Hennig days. And yes, he's the father of Curt Hennig. In a similar vein, you have "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who before adopting the shaved, goateed, toughest-sumbitch-in-the-room persona, had a long mane (though already thinning on top) of blonde hair and wrestled as "Stunning" Steve Austin in a pretty-boy heel gimmick. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Invoked in "Band Candy", where cursed candy bars causes the adults of Sunnydale to regress into their younger selves - including Giles and Buffy's mother Joyce. While both were still attractive in middle-age, the candy causes them to embrace their Former Teen Rebel personalities, especially Giles, who returns to his badboy "Ripper" days. While only implied in the episode itself, the later episode "Earshot" confirms that the two ended up having sex on the hood of a police car, twice, while Buffy wasn't present. | |

He eventually discovers both a full version of the original ad, showing her to be gorgeous, as well as her present-day self, which is a homely, middle-aged cleaning lady. Abner was still hoping to marry her... until he found out she had ruined her knees after a lifetime of scrubbing floors. | |

Upon being married to Brian and finding out her cancer is now in recession, she binge eats to the point of becoming morbidly obese and losing most of her original looks (including her hair, which was replaced with a wig). Brian even says she has a "baby doll from Katrina face" (which she misinterprets as a cute remark). Unfortunately, she ends up dying (albeit off-screen) of a heart attack as a result of her letting herself go. | |

Darth Vader (as Anakin Skywalker), Obi-Wan Kenobi, Uncle Owen, and Aunt Beru are all shown to be this in the prequels; the latter three just had their age (and Tatooine's incredibly harsh climate) catch up to them, while the former-most obviously doesn't look so good after being maimed and burned alive on Mustafar. | |

In Batman (Grant Morrison), the Italian hero Legionary was a dashing man with the build of a Greek god in his prime, capable of pole-vaulting into battle on a pike and considered quite a sex symbol in his homeland. However, the years were not kind to him: after he lost control of his city to one of his villains, he took to comfort food and let himself go. By the present day, he's fat, ill-groomed, and wearing his old cape and helmet over jeans and a slogan T-shirt, trying to project an image of a party animal that nobody really believes. That said, he does ultimately manage to die a hero, withstanding multiple stab wounds to the back and delivering a haymaker to his killer before leaving behind a Dying Clue. | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): At 69 years old, Daniel Molloy is a sickly, wrinkly, Grumpy Old Man who's slowly dying of Parkinson's disease. However, he was a Pretty Boy when he was 20 years old, and he was gorgeous enough that Louis de Pointe du Lac instantly noticed him when Daniel walked into Polynesian Mary's; Louis then swiftly began hitting on him once Daniel sat down at the bar. The bartender was aware that Daniel normally didn't carry any cash on him, so this suggests that he relied on his good looks to get men to buy him drinks. | |

Kingdom Hearts - Prequel villain Master Xehanort◊ (the original incarnation of the franchise-long Big Bad) is a wrinkled, balding old man when we first see him. When we go even further back or rather, his younger self Time Travels from the past to the future, it turns out he used to look like this.◊ Makes you wonder if he stole Terra's body just so he could be a Bishōnen again. We also had Master Eraqus who is Xehanort's friend before he kill him and the mentor towards Aqua, Terra, and Ventus. He was really a Bishōnen before things got really bad between him and Xehanort, which is where he got the scars from. Also, he was really much nicer before. |

Hellsing: Walter C Dornez, Sir Integra Hellsing's butler, as revealed in The Dawn, was quite the bishie badboy back during the Second World War. He gets his looks and youth back after he joins Millennium and becomes a vampire. Though, this example, In-Universe at least, could be considered an inversion because the only person who ever comments on his looks is Alucard, who claims that he was much more beautiful as an aged man.note The reason being that Alucard envies mortals who can experience the whole of life and that he sees eternal youth as more of a curse. So he found Walter more beautiful in the spiritual and metaphorical sense, as he has no interest in the physical. In this sense, seeing Walter return to his youth through artificial means was the ugliest form of betrayal. | |

Gary Golden and Imalia of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. To the point that they're willing to pay generously for any footage of themselves from before their Embrace by the Nosferatu. Averted with Mitnick, who shares their grotesque appearance but was apparently so unappealing in life that he actually looks better after the Embrace. | |

In Happy Heroes, it's a recurring piece of lore that Big M. was quite the dashing fellow in the past, but that changed when Doctor H. hit him with elevator doors... repeatedly... turning him into a gonk whose face makes anybody vomit on the spot when they see it. Big M.'s assistant Little M. didn't turn out too badly in a similar incident, but still looked far handsomer before Doctor H. ruined it for him too. | |
