A Brazilian teenager gave up on his dream of turning himself into a real life Ken doll after coming to the conclusion that there was no need to alter his physical appearance.
Felipe Dias spent two years planning to go under the knife for a total of 42 surgeries required to attain the look of Barbie's fictional counterpart.
The 18-year-old says he ditched his plastic surgery plan after doing some deep soul searching.
'I saw problems in myself that didn't exist, I don't see the need for any surgery now,' Dias said, as quoted by Brazilian online news portal G1. 'I looked myself in the mirror and managed to see myself.'
The teenager is now working in construction to make ends meet.
