Plastic surgery addict spends $200K on plastic surgery. How she looks before will shock you

Barbie is all the rage, with Margot Robbie playing the lovely and natural, real-life Mattel doll in the soon-to-be-released film Barbie, which also stars Hollywood heartthrob Ryan Gosling as Ken. And then there’s Tara McConachy, Australia’s “human Barbie,” who, unlike Robbie in her portrayal, flaunts a plastic makeover and declares that, despite doctor’s warnings, she’ll stop at nothing to obtain her ideal of perfection.

After spending more than $200,000 on face and body alterations, Tara McConachy, 33, whose plastic upgrades have shocked some followers, is still striving for the “wow factor.” McConachy is part of a growing global trend in which millions strive for perfection. The self-proclaimed “Australia’s Limited Edition Barbie Doll,” who stands 5 feet 7 and weighs barely 100 pounds, has undergone five breast augmentations, six nose operations, eyes recolored to a “vibrant green,” cheek and buttock implants, and endless rounds of Botox and fillers.

Her physical measurements, she claims, are 37-17-29. In comparison, if Barbie were a real-life woman, she would be 5’9″ (in heels) and 39-18-33. McConachy’s addiction to plastic surgery began at the age of 20, when her father, who “just wanted (her) to be happy,” gave her new breasts and lips for her birthday.

“After I had the procedure, it was almost like a feeling of euphoria came over me and I was just hooked,” according to her. “I am infatuated with the aesthetics industry; it consumes my entire thought process. Like, I eat, breathe, and dream about it. If you can change your physique, why not?” She went further: “Anywhere you can put filler, I will literally put it in my face.”
