Nowadays plastic surgery is mostly the domain of rich and vain types. But it’s not always been that way. Weirdly enough, reconstructive surgery dates all the way back to India in 800BC. And ever since then it’s been used by people.

Jocelyn Wilderstein

Jocelyn Wilderstein – When this spoiled socialite divorced her French billionaire businessman husband Alec N. Wilderstein, she received an incredible $2.5 billion in the settlement. Oh, and $100 million each year for thirteen years after.

Toby Sheldon

Los Angeles resident Toby Sheldon has spent more than $100,000 on looking like Justin Bieber. And boy has it worked! Well, if you squint a bit. Maybe. A bit…

Lola Ferrari

The French model known as “the woman with the largest breasts in the world”, Lola Ferrari was tragically killed in 2000 at just 37 years of age. She was a softcore adult actress as well as a cult icon in Europe, especially in the UK for her appearances on late night TV show Eurotrash.

Jackie Stallone

Sylvester Stallone isn’t the most normal-looking man in the world, is he? With his upturned lip and face like a baked ham. But we can soon see where he gets it from when we look at his mom. We can see the genetic similarities. She retained a few. But the rest of her face? It’s all made up of plastic. Jackie Stallone is one slightly strange-looking lady, isn’t she? And it’s all down to plastic surgeons. Drunk plastic surgeons.

Donatella Versace

Donatella Versace is the brother of Versace kingpin Gianni Versace. She’s now Vice President of the company that is obsessed with the idea of looking good. So it’s a little odd that she might go so far out of her way to look so damn terrible then, isn’t it?

LaToya Jackson

Now we all know how much Michael Jackson enjoyed the odd nip and tuck, don’t we? The man underwent many, many surgeries. But it seemingly runs in the family. Here’s his sister LaToya Jackson. If you thought that Janet liked a little work done, just check out LaToya’s work. She had A LOT of work done. So much in fact that she almost looks like her late brother, The King of Pop…

US Navy veteran Dennis Avner

US Navy veteran Dennis Avner was world famous, featuring in numerous newspaper and magazine articles, on websites and  on TV programmes. You’ll probably recognize his rather unusual face. He underwent fourteen different surgical procedures to look more and more like a tiger. But his quest was not without its downsides. Sadly, in 2012, he took his own life. He was 54.

Pete Burns

You remember the old eighties track, ‘You Spin Me Right Round’ by Dead or Alive? The lead singer is a dude called Pete Burns. That’s him up there. He’s an odd-looking fella, we’re sure you’d agree. Obsessed with plumping his lips and lifting his face, he’s had a million surgeries in his time.

The Stuff Of Nightmares

Tattoos and piercings are fine. Have a few. Heck – have a load. It’s fine. You want to be unique, that’s cool. But to go this far? Well, it’s quite something, isn’t it? We hope she likes her extreme look

Hang Mioku

Hang Mioku was a young and attractive Korean model. Who wanted ‘softer skin’. So she decided to inject herself with cooking oil. And ended up looking like the lady on the left. It took ten operations to suck all the goo out of her face and make her look normal again.
