AN INFLUENCER says she’s had so much work done that border officials didn’t even recognise her ID photo.
Tatiana Murillo, who is also known as “The Colombian Barbie”;, has had over 20 cosmetic surgeries, according to local media.
Tatiana said border officials in the Dominican Republic stopped her because she looked nothing like the photo on her ID.
She added that she had to renew her Colombian ID card because she looked completely different from the one she got at 18.
Tatiana told local media: “I had to renew it. I had an experience in the Dominican Republic where they wouldn’t let me in because I wasn’t who I was, and I understood them. I told them, ‘I understand you’.”;
She said that officials told her: “No, that’s not you.”;
The content creator shared before-and-after snaps with her 858,000 followers.
Tatiana candidly told local media she has lost count of the exact number of procedures she has undergone.
She said: “I stopped counting surgeries a long time ago, for my mental health.”;
Besides surgeries, she said she has also had non-invasive procedures, like Botox, hyaluronic acid and Cupid’s bow touch-ups.
She said her first cosmetic procedure was a nose job done at a clinic with no medical guarantees – one of the so-called “garage operating rooms”;.
That rhinoplasty didn’t turn out as she’d hoped – leading her to undergo three extra nose jobs to finally achieve the side profile she desired.
Tatiana said she has also had work done on other parts of her body, including her breasts, abdomen, face and chin.
Altogether, she has spent around COP 700 million (£128,000).
She said: “Yes, it’s a lot, but for me, it’s an investment in what I want to be. I still need a few more adjustments.”;
She added: “From a very young age, I knew there were things about my body I wanted to change.
“To achieve this, I worked hard and focused on them. This is me, who I always dreamed of being.”;
She said her transformation was so drastic that she decided to update all her official documents.
It comes as a model and journalist recently died after allegedly having backstreet bum fillers.
Lygia Fazio, 40, passed away after having thebotchedprocedure inBrazil.
She developed severe complications from the injections, which used polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) – a synthetic resin commonly used as a glass substitute.
PMMA is often sold under brand names like Plexiglas, Lucite and Perspex.
In cosmetic procedures, tiny PMMA microspheres suspended in a biological fluid are injected under the skin as soft-tissue fillers.
But in Lygia’s case, the substance spread throughout her body, leading to severe infections and even a stroke.
