Plastic surgery addiction...

It is said that Jocelyn Wildenstein spent close to $4,000,000 on plastic surgery.  But her addiction also comes with a tale. She married a rich art dealer when she was young and caught him cheating on her, they divorced and she got millions and began her self destructive plastic surgery. She told her plastic surgeon to transform her so that she would look more cat-like so that she could win her husband back. He had on obsession with big cats.

Some of the plastic surgeries she has had: eye work (to make them more cat-like), face lift, lip implants, cheek implants, chin implant, breast implants, liposuction, brow lift, soft tissue fillers, etc, etc, etc…

This may seem like a weird addiction but there are actually many people out there who have it. Jocelyn and the obvious Michael Jackson are only 2 examples.

You're right there are a lot of people who become obsessed with their image of beauty. They'll go to any lengths to look a certain way, even if it's only appealing to them.  It's easy for addicts to lose touch with reality and not realize how they're actually damaging their bodies.  Changing your outside appearance won't necessarily make you happy on the inside.  I wasn't sure who you were talking about when you mentioned the name Jocelyn, but I knew who she was when I saw her face.  She was actually very pretty before she changed her appearance.  That goes to show you that changing yourself for someone isn't worth the heartbrake.

If someone is considering plastic surgery, it's so important to do a ton of research before getting any procedures done.  I've heard so many nightmare surgeries that require corrective surgery after.  Sometimes doctors will even make you pay to have the corrective surgery done which is totally unreasonable.

Most the people I know who have gotten surgery start talking about going back again and fixing it again. I knew 3 girls that got nose jobs, and they still complain about their noses and talk about going back again to fix the tiny flaw thats left. I think plastic surgery  is kind of like getting a tattoo. have you realised whenever someone gets a tattoo they start wanting another?
I looked at that jocelyn girls picture OMG she looks so scary!!!

Have you guys seen pictures of the catman? He has had all his teeth removed and replaced with tigerlike dentures and fangs. He has had his lip split to resemble the mouth of a cat. He has six stainless-steel mounts implanted on his forehead and 18 piercings above his lip to which he can attach whiskers. He has had nose and brow implants, and silicone cheek, chin and lip injections. The tips of his ears are pointed. And he has so many tattoos they almost cover his body. I think thats a major plastic surgery addiction and also a major crazy in the head problem!

Lol have you heard of the leopard man?  He has leopard print tattoos covering his entire body, even his face!  He lives by himself in a shack in Scotland and basically lives the camping lifestyle.  He's sixty-six years old and he bathes in a stream like a leopard and hangs out in trees like a leopard.  I think he really wants to be one!
