Those Playboy photos are more like paintings. I heard that they use pictures of body parts from different women, cut and paste, and plenty of air brushing. A photo is then taken of the air brushed picture. They could make me look like a geriatric stud.
In these days, software, like Photoshop is used to mitigate the physical flaws of someone like Stormy Daniels, who will turn 40 in March. With technology, the models need less plastic surgery.
