Meet the Japanese model who has spent over $100,000 on plastic surgery to look like a french doll… and is planning even more extreme procedures
A Japanese woman has undergone a startling physical transformation that has so far involved more than 30 cosmetic procedures at a cost of 10 million yen or $102,000.
The lady, a model known as Vanilla Chamu, has said she intends to keep having surgeries until she has achieved her lifelong goal – to look like a French doll.
Photos of Vanilla prior to her first procedures reveal a rather mousy Japanese teenager whose facial features are virtually unrecognizable from the bizarre and undoubtedly more ‘western-looking’ appearance that she now possesses.
Certain plastic surgery treatments, including double-eyelid surgery and nose jobs, are increasingly popular amongst Asian woman wishing to look more western.
Vanilla has unquestionably had those treatments, but her long list of procedures also includes liposuction, eyelash implants, dimple creation, and breast implants, reports BuzzFeed.
Still her current look isn’t enough for Vanilla in her quest to become a ‘perfect living French doll’.
She has recently had even larger breast implants fitted and her next procedure promises to be her most extreme yet as she plans to undergo height lengthening surgery.
Vanilla underwent her first plastic surgery when she was 19 years old and keeps her current age a well-guarded secret.
She has become something of a cause célèbre in her native land, making countless television appearances and launching a pop career.
Her unusual appearance undoubtedly makes her guaranteed to stand out in any crowd, but she does possess a very unusual view of what a french doll should look like.
A French doll can also be known as a porcelain doll, bisque doll or china doll and means a doll partially or wholly out of bisque porcelain.
Traditionally they are characterized by their realistic, skin-like matte finish and were at the peak of their popularity between 1860 and 1900. Such dolls are now highly collectible and worth thousands of US dollars.
With her inflated pout and fake breasts, Vanilla certainly doesn't resemble a classic children's toy, but she is undoubtedly her own creation.

Japanese brides buying £932 3D printed clones so they can be immortalised on their special day
For the Japanese, a wedding photo album is so passé.
Instead, Tokyo's brides are purchasing 3D dolls which are exact replicas of themselves as they appear on their special day.
The Clone Factory in Akhibara creates versions of real people and even pets.
The high-tech process involves multiple digital SLR cameras taking photos of a person’s or animal’s head from different angles, computers stitching the pictures and data together and a special 3D printer using layers of plaster and ink to mould the 3D sculptures.
Priced at £932 (138,000 Japanese yen), the lifelike 3D-printed dolls are unbelievably detailed and immortalise the model.
Though the outcome is somewhat eerie, the cloning service is especially popular among Japanese women looking to preserve a special moment in life such as their wedding day.
They clone their hair, make-up and even the dress they wore for the complete look.
The factory advises people from abroad who fancy owning a clone of themselves to book their session a few days in advance of their trip, as the factory needs this time to prepare.
Japanese blogger Danny Choo, who runs the Culture Japan website, went down to the Factory to try out the machine and report on the process of being 'cloned'.
At the start of the clone doll creation process, Danny was instructed to sit still in a chair in the middle of the room is surrounded by digital SLR cameras - with even some on the ceiling.
Multiple cameras then began looping around his head and rays started taking 'slices of measurements'. This process lasted only a few seconds.
Once all the data was prepared, his clone was printed with a ZPrinter 650 using layers of ink which harden in a tray of plaster where the clone is born.
When the process is complete, the tray of plaster remains completely unchanged on the surface.
The final product is then covered in a top coat for protection.
The cloning product is called Jibun-san (自分さん) - which roughly translated as 'Me'.
The surface of the printed objects can be slightly rough due to the limitations of the printer. Smoother surfaces can be achieved by using more expensive printers such as one called Digital Wax, which prints baby smooth surfaces.
A few days after the production process, Danny's clone was ready for collection and as requested, embodies his head atop a Star Wars Storm Trooper figurine.
