Justin Jedlica has already had 191 cosmetic procedures in his bid to transform himself into a human Ken doll.
'I’ve had nearly ever part of my body worked on,' admits the 34-year-old New Yorker, who so far has spent an incredible $220,000 on more than 20 plastic surgeries, and says he still has a long way to go until he is perfect.
'I have a reputation of being one of the most extreme plastic surgery addicts in the world and I love continuing to push the limits.
'As an artist I've always enjoyed drawing and sculpting and for me plastic surgery is an extension of my creativity.'
Among Mr Jedlica's extensive list of surgeries are five rhinoplasties, a cranial brow bone lift, shoulder implants and augmentations to his cheeks, lips, buttocks and chin.
'But as a very detail oriented person I always find something new to critique and fix,' he said.
'Most recently I had three veins in my forehead stripped and ablated as every time I would smile or laugh they would pop out.
'I called them my "Julia Roberts" veins. It was a high-risk procedure because there was a possibility I could go blind as they needed to go in through the inside of my eyelids in order to burn the veins off.
'But after being turned away by several surgeons the procedure turned out perfectly.
'My back implants are also one-of-a-kind as I designed and handcrafted each piece to make sure they matched the Ken doll aesthetic.
Combined, both surgeries cost a total of $40,000 bringing Mr Jedlica to a grand total of nearly a quarter of a million dollars for all of his surgeries.
And he is still planning on having more procedures.
'I still have a long way to go before I can say I’m 100per cent plastic, including abdominal implants and calf implants.
'But I’m so determined to be plastic that nothing will stop be from reaching my goal.'
