From "Dark Passage"
Houseley Stevenson as Dr. Walter Coley, plastic surgeon.
"Ever see any botched plastic jobs? If a man like me didn't like a fellow...he could surely fix him up for life. Make him look like a bulldog, or a monkey. I'll make you look like you've lived."
If correct: UFG

Correct. Facelifts in Hollywood really caught on after after people got a glimpse of Doc Coley.

I recall a scene in an old Richard Arlen movie from the mid-1930s called LET 'EM HAVE IT. Ruthless gangster Bruce Cabot (channeling John Dillinger) kidnaps a plastic surgeon and orders him to change his appearance -- and then kills the doc. A week later when the facial bandages are removed, the gangster discovers that the surgeon had carved the public enemy's well-known initials into his face! Cabot was so angry that he threatened to dig up the dead doc and kill him all over again!
