A plastic surgery addict has spent more than \u00a3150,000 to “perfect” her look – including a rib removal, size 28L breast implants, a resculpted face and Brazilian butt lifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kristen Snider, 28, sees her body as a “canvas” and plans to spend another \u00a325,000 at least to alter her appearance even though her family don’t approve and fear her cosmetic obsession will kill her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The IT support specialist said she always hated the reflection she saw in the mirror and wanted to change so much of her figure since she was a teenager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Classmates at school teased her over her appearance and at 18 her frame was slim, but she desired feminine curves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In March 2010, aged 18, Kristen underwent her first breast augmentation with 550cc implants to enhance her 32B chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She felt so happy with her body and she cried tears of joy when she saw the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2010, Kristen has had over 20 cosmetic procedures, including a second breast augmentation with 1,500cc implants, rib removal, two bum lifts and bum implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She has also had three rhinoplasties, cheek implants, forehead implants, fat removal and lip injections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kristen loves her body now and feels proud of what she and her surgeons have achieved so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although she still wants to have more procedures, her family is not as pleased with her transformed look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She admits that she receives many stares when she is out in public and some people criticise her appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But she has urged them to accept other people’s appearances because no-one is getting hurt by her cosmetic surgeries and her choices should be respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kristen said: “I was frequently made fun of in school and that forced me to learn to not care what other people think of myself and my choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Being a perfectionist, ambitious and creative is a quick way to become a plastic surgery addict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I never used to like what I saw in the mirror as I wasn’t happy with my body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I saw a lot that I didn’t like which I wanted to improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“When I was 18, I was fairly small chested with a 32B bra size. I wanted to have a fuller chest, so I had my first breast implants which were 550cc, costing \u00a35,800.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“After surgery, I was so happy that I actually cried. It made me realise that if you’re smart about how you do it, you really can have almost anything done and achieve whatever look you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“My first breast augmentation was the gateway which helped me catch the bug for more plastic surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The recovery wasn’t bad, and it proved that what I wanted was possible. The image of the ideal body that I had in my head could be achieved.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She added: “Two years after, I had a few procedures done to resculpt my face in June 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I had jaw contouring, chin contouring, a lip lift, rhinoplasty, cheek implants, forehead reshaping and a brow lift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“My first Brazilian butt lift was in December 2015 and I had another butt lift in December 2018 and I then had 500cc bum implants put in too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I had a second rhinoplasty in January 2016, a second chin reshaping, jaw reshaping and a fat graft to my forehead in December 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I have also had three lip augmentations in 2018, the three ribs removed in October 2018 and my current 1500cc breast implants done in January 2019 and I am now a 28L.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kristen sees her body as a blank canvas she can alter to create the ‘ideal’ body she wants for herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She plans to undergo more procedures including rib narrowing, hip implants, thigh implants and larger bum implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She added: “I view my body as a canvas and surgery as the tool to achieve the image I have of myself in my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’ve always wanted extreme curves and I’m a very sexual person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In the last nine years, surgery has opened the door for me to express myself through my image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I feel that if nobody is being hurt and you’re happy, then what we choose to do with our bodies should be respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“My family doesn’t like it as they’ve always been more conventional in what they consider attractive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“They worry that one day this could kill me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I get lots of stares from men checking me out and sometimes from women as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“However, living in Virginia, where people are very conservative, I occasionally get nasty glances and side eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’m used to it though as I have a very thick skin – you have to when you do this to your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“There are many procedures I’d still like to have in the future though. I’d like to have a rib narrowing procedure, implants in my hips and thighs, another breast augmentation to take me to 2500cc and more facial reshaping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’m constantly learning about new procedures and adding them to my list, so I’m sure the list will continue to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We all have our own opinions on what is beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We can’t try to push our ideals on others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I also believe that if you’re unhappy with something you should never settle, you should fight for a solution to make it work instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Surgical techniques are always improving so there’s a way to change almost anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I think we should all focus on growing and evolving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Most importantly, be accepting of other peoples’ choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Be kind, all that matters is happiness.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
