A beautician who spent £5,000 a year transforming herself into a "Barbie" realised she has "taken it too far" after she could no longer recognise herself. Emily Spence became obsessed with dermal fillers aged 18 and started opting for more and more cosmetic surgery at every appointment.
In 2018, she spent thousands getting her lip filler upped to 5ml and also got injections on top of her jaw, chin and cheeks fillers. She then took it to the next level and underwent jaw surgery to change the shape of her face, reaching the point where she no longer recognised her own reflection, the Mirror reports.
The now 28-year-old then came to the realisation that her constant desire for more cosmetic work was born from insecurities she had about her body - and came to hate her how she looked with fillers. She has since had most of them dissolved and has opened her own clinic to help others achieve their dream look - without going overboard.
