Human Ken Doll from Botched looked completely different before his extreme transformation
A man who has become known as the 'human Ken Doll' looked completely different before his hundreds of cosmetic procedures.
Justin Jedlica, 36, is from Los Angeles, California, and has had over 550 cosmetic procedures, with the most recent three including removing previous implants he had in his latissimus to replace them with slimmer versions, as well as removing a vein in his forehead.
Over the years he has spent a whopping $560,000, around £425,000, on the huge number of procedures he has had.
“For me I look at this as being an art form," he told The Sun. “With my implant design and body modifications it’s much more about making myself exceptionally different from anyone else."

And despite the enormous number of things he has had done, he does not intend to stop with his surgeries.
“I love the ability to be able to design and brand my body," he said.
Before he started having his surgeries Justin looked very different, not having yet had the work done on his face, with an older photo showing how he looked before his hundreds of cosmetic procedures.
Not only that, but he even credits his success in life to his cosmetic surgeries as well.
“I never thought I would be able to live in West Hollywood in a multimillion dollar home," he said. "I attribute a lot of that to the confidence and self-esteem that I got from plastic surgery.
“I chose to look a specific way and it may not be the way everybody else thinks is typically beautiful. But I find it beautiful and that’s really all that matters at the end of the day.”
Explaining why he has opted to have his most recent surgery, he said: “I had my first latissimus procedure about two years ago and I was the first person in the world to ever embark on an augmentation to their back.
“I conceptualised the surgery. I designed the implants. Everything healed well, it just ended up being a little bit big.
“I’m having a revision on my latissimus implants. Those are the wings on your back and I’m having one of my teres implants moved just for symmetry. I’m also having one on my forehead vein cut, tied off and bladed.”
This time, the process would involve taking five sample implants from two different companies to make sure that the one he chooses in the end is the right one.
First though they will need to remove the old implants.
"That means they have to make a cut underneath in my armpit," he explained. “The doctor won’t be able to just take them out like a normal implant because they are so large and they are actually hook shaped."
Justin explained that they would need to 'pull them in sections' or 'cut them out in sections', and that the doctor would 'use tongs or his hands to go down my back and pull these pieces out until he gets all of the pocket cleaned out and that implant out of my body'.
