Versace model Jennifer Pamplona spent the last 12 years of her life undergoing more than 40 cosmetic procedures, among other things. Her goal was to look like Kim Kardashian. But then she made the decision to reverse her surgeries, reports the New York Post.
At just 17, Pamplona underwent her first surgery. At the time, Kim Kardashian’s career was just beginning. Pamplona’s motivation quickly turned into an addiction. The 29-year-old spent almost $600,000 on her surgery. More and more she turned into the twin of the American entrepreneur.
But slowly she realized that the interventions would not make her happy in the long term. “People called me a Kardashian, and that started to get annoying,” she said. She quickly gained international attention, and today more than a million people follow her on Instagram. She built a career, but people only focused on her looks.

“I discovered I was addicted to surgery and I wasn’t happy,” Pamplona admitted. “It was an addiction and I got into a cycle.” She felt uncomfortable for years before realizing she had body dysmorphia and just couldn’t see her body properly.
After realizing this, she wanted her old looks back. So she spent another $120,000 to get back to her former self. The operation was successful and the Brazilian already knows that the painful procedure was worth it.
To help people with body dysmorphia, the model has set up a foundation in Brazil with a doctor: “I feel like I can help a lot of people with my life story,” she said. She also recently announced her own documentary aimed at showing people the dangerous reality of cosmetic procedures.
