30-year old Paulina says she had always hated her feet and
felt too embarrassed to get them out in front of her friends because two of
them were much longer than the others.
She opted for the ‘Cinderella surgery’- a range of
controversial new cosmetic procedures that alter the shape and size of a woman’s
feet to improve their appearance. After spending six weeks in pains trying to
recover from the surgery, Paulina says the surgeon wasn’t totally honest with
her, because he never told her it will affect the rest of her body, hence her
life.

I can no longer walk properly, and only hopes I get healed
with time. People should think very carefully before they jump into having foot
surgery for cosmetic reasons. It’s not worth the risk just for the sake of
vanity, my feet are more painful now than they were before, she said. See more photos from the surgery after the cut.
