According to the doctor, the “Barbie makeover” usually involves a person undergoing multiple procedures at once.
“They usually ask for things like breast augmentation, liposuction, rhinoplasty, lip augmentation and more β and usually at the same time,” he said.
Speaking recently to The Sun, Dr. Adam J. Rubinstein (pictured), from New York, warned that trying to look like a Barbie or Ken doll could lead to massive scarring and put you at risk of infection.
But he explained that doing so much work on your body at once comes with serious “health risks.”
“(It can lead to) infection, scarring, anesthesia complications and drug side effects, especially when multiple procedures are done at once,” he continued.
“Some of the most serious surgical hazards are complications around asymmetry, implant misplacement, or unfavorable scarring.”
The doctor added that it could also have “psychological consequences” as “striving to look like a fictional character” or “sticking to unrealistic beauty standards” is not good for your mental health.
βIt is important that patients have realistic expectations and a clear understanding of what plastic surgery can achieve,β he stressed.

A New York-based surgeon named Dr. Scott Blyer (seen), announced in July that he was offering an all-new ‘full-body makeover’ so people could look like the puppets
“Surgeons can only work within the constraints of a person’s natural anatomy to achieve a harmonious and balanced outcome.”
Dr. Rubinstein explained that the latest fad has “raised ethical concerns within the medical community.”
He added that most surgeons want to “prioritize natural-looking results” rather than plastic or doll-like appearances.
“(We want to) enhance a person’s appearance while preserving their unique features,” he continued. “Exaggerated changes can lead to an unnatural and disproportionate appearance.”
A New York-based plastic surgeon, Dr. Named Scott Blyer, he gained attention in July after announcing he was offering an all-new “full-body makeover” so that men and women could transform themselves into lifelike dolls.
Dr. Blyer told Fox news: ‘We will bring you as close as possible to your Barbie of your dreams.’
He said patients can choose up to three different body surgeries and two facial surgeries for $120,000.

Options include neck lipo, breast implants, a tummy tuck, buttock lift, and labia plastic surgery — which increases or decreases the size of your labia.
“Labiaplasties (can) be for post-pregnancy women,” he told the New York Post. “Often their vaginal lips get stretched β we trim them so they can look cute.”

It also comes with a pink manicure, hair treatment and teeth whitening, and patients are also picked up in a pink Corvette.
The surgeon said at the time that three clients had already signed up for the new procedure, one of whom was a man.
“If you want to be a Ken, I’ll do six-pack etchings.” We can add fat to your muscles and give it a more muscular appearance,” he explained to Fox News.
“You can inject into the muscle and that gives the appearance of a stronger, bigger chest or arms, quads.” And we can put it in the jawline, the cheeks, the chin.β
