A man known as ‘Human Ken Doll’ has spoken of the pain he endured following his latest plastic surgery – his 51st procedure.

Rodrigo Alves, 33, rose to prominence after featuring on the show Botched on E! He’s spent £373,000 (approximately $597,000 AUD) on the surgeries in a bid to look like Ken.

However his face has recently started “peeling off in big lumps” following more procedures.

He spoke to the MailOnline about having a co2 resurfacing procedure just a few weeks after a face, neck and eye lift.

Alves told the MailOnline: “Three days after I had the c02 resurfacing done, my face started peeling off in big lumps and I couldn’t go out into the sunlight, so that was hard.”

“I had to cancel my attendance at Elton John’s post-Oscars charity after party on Sunday due to the very invasive and aggressive work I had done.”

However, it doesn’t seem like the plastic surgery fanatic is going to stop anytime soon.

He said: “I feel good and I’m turning heads. The scars have reduced by 50% so I will get it done again in six months’ time. I feel happy with how it went.”

If you or someone you know is considering plastic surgery, please consult a health professional to discuss your options first.
