"Real Ken" Rodrigo Alves showed what he looked like before his 58 plastic surgeries

The biography of Jessica Alves is interesting to the public due to the large number of operations she has undergone to change her appearance. The girl spent not a single thousand dollars trying to get closer to her doll ideal, she does not plan to stop there.

Thus, Rodrigo Alves turned into a living doll - a real Ken

Rodrigo has always believed that he was born in the wrong body, and although his modified appearance looks very unnatural, the man claims that his appearance matches how he feels.

“They pay a lot of attention because of my artificial appearance, but I love myself and that’s the main thing,” the man said.

Personal life

In his youth, Rodrigo Alves remained silent about his personal life. Most likely, it simply did not exist, since he devoted all his time to improving himself. There were also rumors about Alves being gay. So, he celebrated Halloween 2022 with Justin Jedlick. The young people did not leave each other all evening and also kissed on camera.

However, the men at one time appeared on Instagram with photos together with Sofia Vegas. She is a German model and TV presenter and, like Rodrigo, a fan of plastic surgery. Following the example of Alves, the girl also got rid of four ribs. They did not confirm their romance, but, on the contrary, convinced everyone that they were just friends - they were connected by a love of fashion, style and plasticity.

As a result, Rodrigo's appearance turned out to be dubious, but thanks to her he gained a sense of happiness

“People might think I'm crazy. This is wrong. I resorted to the help of psychologists. I was born in the wrong body,” he said.

He also loves feeling how clothes fit his new body: “I always loved fashion, but I could never fit into a jacket or suit because my body was not symmetrical. Now everything has changed."

Man-doll (from Ken to Barbie)

Turning a Brazilian into Ken is an expensive and painful process. First of all, Rodrigo decided to change his hated nose, because of which he was constantly teased. According to Alves, it took up almost half of his face. Of course, it was impossible to reduce it at once, so the operations followed one after another.

After the third rhinoplasty, a fistula appeared on the wing of the nose and necrosis began. Rodrigo's breathing became blocked; part of his nose had to be removed to save his life. As a result, 10 operations were performed on this part of the face, but this did not stop Alves. He spent €30 thousand to change his nose alone.

As much as his nose, his receding hairline irritated him. Toy Ken had gorgeous hair, but Rodrigo was no different. It not only increased the volume of the hair, but also changed the line of its growth. But he hastened to get rid of other unwanted hair - laser hair removal of the whole body cost the man € 70 thousand.

It’s easy to guess that the man also changed the shape of his lips - 5 implants were inserted into them. In addition, I did a lift on my upper lip to make it look sensual and sexy. Rodrigo had several such cosmetic operations on his face - eyebrows, eyes and facial contour.

It is noteworthy that the man has a negative attitude towards sports. To achieve Ken's figure, he had to get breast implants and artificial abs. Rodrigo also resorted to liposuction - he pumped out fat from the abdomen, sides and buttocks. Later he decided that this was not enough and also inserted implants.

Biceps and triceps “grew” thanks to silicone. But even here, trouble happened to “Ken” - either he got an infection, or the pumped substance got into his blood. His hands became so inflamed that he could not even move them. The man found himself on the verge of life and death. He remained paralyzed for three weeks.

In January 2022, Alves had four ribs removed, two on each side. He was the first man to resort to such a procedure. Now his waist is 60 cm. Later, another facelift was required. “Living Ken” developed fibrosis from the filler threads, which led to constant swelling.

Not all surgeons undertake to change Alves's appearance. Having learned about the number of surgical interventions performed, he is refused in many European clinics, so the doll man is forced to turn to Brazilian or Iranian doctors. They are willing to risk the patient's health to transform his body.

Plastic surgery sometimes leads to funny things. In 2022, the public noted the curvature of Roddy’s chin: it turned out that the man’s implant had burst, which later had to be replaced.

As a result, by this time he had undergone more than 60 plastic surgeries and spent over 600 thousand pounds sterling. The man admitted that the only part of his body that has not undergone plastic surgery is his penis.

Changing his appearance is not only a passion for Rodrigo, but also a way of earning money. In 2013, the manufacturers of Barbie and Ken made 1 million dolls with Rodrigo, which quickly sold out. Another source of income for “living Ken” is the transformation of plastic surgeries with his participation into a reality show. The man is not shy about showing his face without makeup with numerous bruises and bandages.

Rodrigo Alves became a woman
Rodrigo understands that any surgical intervention is a test that not everyone can withstand, so in no case does he encourage anyone to repeat his experience. He explains his “reincarnation” by saying that he was born in the wrong body, his soul and brain could not put up with it.

Nevertheless, the doll man is not going to stop manipulating his body. Rodrigo plans to stop aging and look forever young. He is already injecting himself with stem cells.

In February 2022, Rodrigo Alves visited Moscow. As Ken himself said, he wanted to find his love in Russia. The man attended the “Male/Female” program, but the TV show almost ended in scandal. The fact is that people-dolls were discussed on the program, and most of the conversations were in a negative manner towards Alves.

Rodrigo Alves turned into Barbie
Since the main purpose of visiting Russia was to meet Russian “Barbies,” he went to the most popular love show “Dom-2.” Of the girls, the man noted Marina Afrikantova, Olga Buzova and Oksana Ryaska. After filming, he even asked the producers for their mobile numbers.

In 2022, Rodrigo became a guest star at the international Eurovision Song Contest. He refused the offer of the Republic of San Marino to speak on its behalf. Alves said he wants to represent the whole world, not just one state.

At the concert, the man performed the song Plastic World, based on the famous hit of the group Aqua Barbie Girl. Before the performance, “living Ken” again turned to plastic surgeons for help: he needed to correct the shape of his eyes so that they looked like a cat.

Rodrigo Alves recently shared photos of himself from his childhood and youth.

As you can see, Rodrigo was a pretty sweet kid, but that didn't stop bullies from making fun of his appearance. One day they even shoved his face into a urinal because his nose was “too wide.”

Alves loved Disney cartoons since childhood and always dreamed of being like the Disney princes.

What the man himself says about his transformations

The man does not deny the interventions; moreover, he willingly talks about them, since thanks to the operations he was able to get rid of a bunch of complexes. The first thing he changed in appearance was his nose. It was this part of the body that haunted me since childhood. A wide nose greatly spoiled his appearance and, according to the living Ken, took up almost half of his face.

The eighth rhinoplasty ended in disaster. Tissue necrosis began and a fistula formed. The man was urgently taken to the hospital, where he underwent an operation that lasted 10 hours. Rodrigo managed to save his life, but such an incident did not teach the Brazilian anything. He actively continues to change his appearance through plastic surgery.

Brazilian Rodrigo Alves wants to be like Ken

Alves himself is aware of his dependence on plastic surgery, but is not yet in a hurry to see a psychotherapist.

The man said that he almost died on the operating table while injecting fillers into the biceps area. An infection occurred and such a situation would have cost Rodrigo his life or at least the amputation of his arm. However, experienced surgeons pumped out the composition from the biceps of the living Ken in time and saved his limbs.

As he grew older, he began his journey of change by changing his appearance.

Alves underwent his first operation at the age of 17 after he was diagnosed with gynecomastia (breast enlargement with hypertrophy of the glands and fatty tissue).

After an operation to remove excess tissue, Rodrigo finally decided to change himself surgically.

While still in college, he began to undergo one operation after another.

The first thing he did was find the most expensive plastic surgeon and contact him. After this, he learned an important and expensive lesson.

“It taught me that expensive is not good, and that a good surgeon is the one with the most practice,” he said.

Rodrigo's family was very concerned about his interest in plastic surgery

His family was shocked when Rodrigo returned home to Brazil, having already undergone several operations.

They persuaded him to seek psychological help from doctors, who diagnosed the man with dysmorphic disorder or dysmorphophobia (a mental disorder in which a person is overly worried and preoccupied with a minor defect or feature of his body).

Interesting Facts

Alves’s biography has many interesting points, including the following facts:

• in an interview, Jessica said that her body was insured for £1 million;
• to maintain his body in shape, Alves has to spend up to 4 thousand pounds a month;
• one of the incentives for the start of surgical interventions was the death of her grandfather, as a result of which Jessica became the heir to a large fortune;
• in 2022, the girl visited Russia with the goal of finding love in the capital;
• Upon arrival in Moscow, Alves was invited to the Russian show “Male/Female”.

Jessica Alves is a transgender girl who has a great love for plastic surgery. Few Internet users share and understand her desire for intervention, which is why Alves’s personality is often criticized and attacked by ill-wishers.

Rodrigo Alves's body before plastic surgery

After 16 liposuctions, his current body does not at all resemble what it was like before

He recently learned that doctors will no longer be able to perform liposuction on him, since all previous operations left a mark on his body.

“My whole body on the inside is a network of scar tissue,” he said.

Reason for drastic changes

It was in the status of a living doll that he became popular, turning from an ordinary Briton into a media personality and TV star. He has spent more than $600,000 on his previous transformations.

Rodrigo now claims that he always wanted to be a woman and asks to be called Roddy. According to the man, the true beauty of humanity is manifested only in the fairer sex.
