But now the man - the most popular participant in various television shows, a fashion expert and critic, freak receives millions in fees on Instagram ads, which makes his conviction not to stop there.
Children and teenagers
The future victim of plastics was born in one of the Brazilian cities in 1985, and a little later moved to the UK to study in college. Alves grew up as a child like others, was not particularly different and tried not to stand out. However, he was often criticized by classmates, by and large because of his non-standard nose. According to the man, once he was even dipped in a urinal because he did not meet the generally accepted standards of beauty.
Gradually, the guy began to develop complexes. Rodrigo passionately dreamed of being like the heroes of Disney cartoons, saw them as real idols, ideals. Every year the guy waited for the moment of transformation.
Gynecomastia
A difficult case "helped": a seventeen-year-old Brazilian Rodrigo Alves was found to have an extremely rare disease - gynecomastia. The guy had non-standard enlarged mammary glands. Surgery was required.
After removing the overgrown tissues, the guy made a firm decision - he will change everything in his appearance. And still continues to do so.

He even had to make an appointment with a psychoanalyst, who diagnosed him with a mental disorder. It was proposed to undergo a course of treatment, however, classes with a specialist did not help to gain self-confidence. And the procedures for interfering with the body continued.
First operation
The path of transformation was long and thorny: in addition to the fact that the procedures are far from cheap, they are also very painful. It all started with a change in the hated shape of the nose; of course, it took several operations on only this part of the body. It was impossible to get rid of the wide wings of the organ of smell at one time.
The third session of rhinoplasty brought trouble: a fistula formed in the nasal cavity, which caused the death of tissues, breathing was difficult, doctors, in order to save Rodrigo’s life, resorted to at least - removed a part of the organ. As a result, it took ten operations and 30 thousand euros.
Turning into Ken
The transferred necrosis did not stop Alves, and he continued to torture his body with plastic surgery. After nose, Rodrigo took up the removal of bald patches. European surgeons refused a non-standard client, but this did not stop the man - he turned to oriental medicine.
Surgeons changed the hairline, added volume to the hair. But Alves hastened to get rid of unwanted hair on the body, having undergone the procedure of laser hair removal, which cost him 70 thousand euros.
Perfect body
To bring his face to perfection, the young man resorted to a change in the shape of his lips, inserting five implants into them. And so that the upper lip looked more sensual and magnetically, made her a lift; eyebrows, eyelids and facial contours also hastened to fix.
Alves has repeatedly admitted to reporters that he does not like sports and has never been involved in it. I was also able to achieve athleticism of the figure thanks to plastic surgeries: he had breast and buttock implants inserted, an artificial press was made so that the cubes could not be distinguished from real ones.
Biceps and triceps were also pumped with silicone, after which it was necessary to save Alves's life again. As it turned out later, during the procedure, an infection was introduced that got into the bloodstream. Extreme inflammation spread throughout his body, the young man was on the verge of life and death. And then for a long time remained paralyzed. But this incident did not stop Rodrigo.
