It’s not unusual to hear about people getting plastic surgery to change features such as their nose, breasts, or lips, or to simply add a bit of radiance to their face.
However, Jessica Alves, previously known as Rodrigo Alves, took this to an extreme, transforming her look into that of a human Barbie doll.
It’s perfectly normal to feel less than satisfied with your appearance. No matter what you choose to do, always remember that you are beautiful and capable of achieving incredible things, regardless of what others may think.
While some opt for plastic surgery to modify specific aspects of their looks, Jessica Alves completely reinvented her appearance.
Jessica Alves – transition
Let’s start the story of Jessica. In an interview in early 2020 with The Mirror, Jessica Alves, born Rodrigo, came out as transgender.
“I’m known as Ken but inside I’ve always felt like Barbie,” the 36-year old said. “I finally feel like the real me. Glamorous, beautiful and feminine.”
From that day, she goes by Roddy ans use “she” and “her” pronouns
Came out as transgender
Jessica received hormone injections to make her hips feminine. In addition to blonde hair extensions and fake eyelashes, she now wears a D-cup bra as well. She announced in July that she would go by the name Jessica.
“For years I tried to live my life as a man. I had a fake six pack put in, I had fake muscles in my arms but I was lying to myself,” she said. “I’m a woman and have always had a feminine brain. Now my body matches my mind.”
Through the years Jessica’s been seen on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018, and last year, she release a song with Italian plastic surgeon Giacomo Urtis called Plastic World. In addition, she has over 1 million followers on Instagram and previously worked as a flight attendant.
So how did she get here?
Jessica Alves – surgeries
Now, 20 years later, Jessica has undergone over hundred surgeries.
She underwent surgeries for nose jobs, pec implants, botox and fillers, liposuction to jaws and legs, calf shaping, hair transplant, fake six-pack, filler to arms. She also had four ribs removed, and a “cat-eye” lift.
Jessica’s spent more than half a million dollars in total on surgeries. Soon, her classmates couldn’t recognize her at all. It was clear that se suffered from morphodysphoria, which is a diagnose in which a person has a disturbed image of his or her own body.
From the beginning Jessica Alves, as Rodrigo back then, wanted to become a male version of the Ken doll.
