ABC has revealed some new photos of The Bachelor's Ben Flajnik, and something's definitely missing. Two things, actually. His signature moles? No more!

The California winemaker, who captured America's heart over the summer after being cast off by The Bachelorette's Ashley Hebert, still has his killer smile.

Just not some other facial features that aren't even that noticeable, but editors still decided to go to town on. Something about The Bachelor is fake? No WAY.

In photos from last season, beauty marks on his left cheek were very visible ... presumably they will be in actual footage this season as well. So what's the point?

We have no idea, but the new season totally starts January 2!

Who will he give the first - and final - roses to? What surprises, scandals and exciting dates await? Read The Bachelor spoilers we've posted so far - if you DARE!!
