200 plastic surgeries scar young woman for life

A woman about 20 years old from Nanjing, who has spent more than 4 million yuan (US$633,858) on over 200 plastic surgeries only to suffer endless pain, has found that she can't recover because some of her bones are eroded by injected materials, the Yangtze Evening News reported yesterday.

The paper didn't reveal the woman's name but called her by her online monicker, "Pink Baby." She claimed she underwent so many surgeries not to be more beautiful but to "fix the failures."

On Thursday the woman went to Friendship Hospital in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, for a formal examination.

"I started when I was 16 for double-fold eyelids with buried sutures in a beauty salon," she said. "But I soon found it could not last long and eventually I did it by cutting."

Doctors at the hospital found that almost all parts of her body had been operated on, and some surgeries were not appropriate for her age.

Pink Baby said she believed in beauty salons and never went to hospitals for the surgeries. She even lived in South Korea for a year to get surgeries, as she always believed "I can be more beautiful."

The woman said her surgeries were all paid for by her rich parents.

"I don't want my parents to see me through the media," said Pink Baby, who always wears big sunglasses and masks in interviews.

"It will take two or three years to cure her because there are too many problems," said Xia Jianjun, a doctor at the hospital. "Now her breasts and bones of her heels are eroded with beauty materials."

"It's impossible to recover the eroded bones of her heel, which now makes it hard for her to walk," added Xia. "And we also found a tumor of about 3 centimeters long in her left breast."
