‘Surgery addict’ – who spent $175,000 – insists it helps her cope with boyfriend’s murder
A self-professed plastic surgery addict has revealed that she has spent around $175,000 on various procedures and despite her family’s warnings, she has no intention of stopping.
Nicole Zavala, who starred on VH1’s reality TV show Cartel Crew and lives in Miami, expressed her surgery addiction on the YouTube channel ‘really’.
In the mini-documentary, the brunette tells viewers how she “likes” to change her look all the time, and most recently spent $20,000 on her fourth boob job and fillers to mark her 30th birthday.
She goes on to explain that she’s had a “really tough year” as her boyfriend of three years Demetrius Meach was killed about five months ago and “just getting fillers, tattoos, piercings… it makes me feel better.”

In one scene, she shows off a portrait of her late partner tattooed on the inside of her arm, with the accompanying text: “Demetrius, Legends Live Forever.”
When it comes to plastic surgery, the brunette says she’d rather look fake than natural and gets “all sorts of comments” about her pumped-up look.
Often compared to a Bratz doll or a Barbie, she says people sometimes say she looks like a “bloated fish because of my lips.”
Turning to her critics, she adds, “I don’t care what anyone thinks… if you don’t like it, don’t go to my page.”
Because of her cosmetically enhanced appearance, Nicole says she often experiences prejudice and people automatically assume she’s “conceited,” “has an attitude,” or “her personality might be crazy.”
In the short, Nicole takes a stand and says, “I want people to know that I really have a good heart.
“I’m very very humble, even when I’m on TV, even before and after TV, nothing has changed me one bit. I don’t think I’m taller than anybody.’
One of Nicole’s favorite procedures is having her lips done.
While she says plastic surgery makes her feel better, she also talks to a therapist every week to curb her grief.

She says, “I like fillers, I like my lips. I think I spent over $150,000 on plastic surgery, almost $175,000. I’m absolutely addicted to plastic surgery.’

In the “real” YouTube video titled “Surgery Helps Me Cope With My Friend’s Murder,” Nicole reveals that she fell into a “deep depression” after her partner’s death and that she “sat home for two months ‘.
While she says plastic surgery makes her feel better, she also talks to a therapist every week to curb her grief.
Along with the support of her friends and her boyfriend’s friends, she says she’s “hanging on and taking it one day at a time.”
She adds, “I’m just trying to be strong because it’s hard, it’s hard.”
At the end of the short, Nicole meets her mother and brother to show her last round of plastic surgery.
In one scene, she shows off a portrait of her late partner tattooed on the inside of her arm, with the accompanying text: “Demetrius, Legends Live Forever”

“I feel like my next procedure I’m going to have is my hips and my butt just because I feel like my boobs are big now and I feel like I have to fit my butt,” says Nicole
Looking ahead after marking a milestone birthday, Nicole explains she’s also not afraid of getting old ‘because I’m not going to look old’
However, when they see her new appearance, they express concern instead of congratulations.
Nicole’s mom Gladys says with a concerned look on her face, “What’s up with you?” No more please, I love you too much.’
Meanwhile, Micha, the brother of the reality star, says: ‘Why? I thought you said this would be the last time.
“You look like a Bratz doll…I feel like you need to figure out another way to handle it…I feel like you look good, you shouldn’t just put on more add.
“You have to think of an alternative, because at the end of the day you fall into a deep depression if one of your operations goes wrong.”
While with her family, Nicole agrees that she may need a therapist to deal with her addiction to plastic surgery and the loss of her boyfriend.
However, once they leave, she reveals she has no intention of stopping operations and she already knows what nip ‘n’ tuck she wants next.
She tells viewers, “Looking back, if I talked to my younger self, honestly, if you don’t like the way you look, fix yourself – I don’t think I’m going to stop.”
“I feel like my next procedure I’m going to have is my hips and my butt just because I feel like my boobs are big now and I feel like I have to fit my butt.”
Looking ahead after marking a milestone birthday, Nicole explains that she’s also not afraid of getting old “because I’m not going to look old.”
She closes with a smile on her face: ‘When I reach 40 men, I’m going to do double what I’m doing!’
