Rodrigo Alves, 32, has undergone 42 operations to look like a Ken doll (Barbie's beau), and is now reportedly being treated for a potentially life-threatening condition after his body rejected his new nose.
今年32岁的罗德里格·阿尔维斯为了看起来像芭比的男友肯,而做了42次整形手术。而根据近日的报道,他却因为身体对新鼻子产生排斥反应而面临潜在的生命威胁。
Alves is currently in a hospital in Spain with necrosis, according to the Daily Mail. He told the publication, from the hospital, "I had nose reconstruction three months ago and it appears the new cartilage has been rejected by my body."
据《每日邮报》报道,阿尔维斯如今正在西班牙的医院里忍受着细胞坏死的折磨。他在医院接受采访时表示:"三个月前,我接受了鼻子重塑手术,而如今我的身体似乎对新的软骨产生了排斥反应。"
"A horrible hole has appeared in my nostril, and the infection is eating my nose and I've been warned if it is not stopped, it could eat into my face," Alves explained.
阿尔维斯解释道:"我的鼻孔里出现了一个可怕的洞,而感染正在导致鼻子腐烂。医生还警告我说,如果感染没有被中止,那么我的脸也会遭殃。"
According to the National Institutes of Health, necrosis is the death of body tissue, which occurs when too little blood flows to the tissue. It is a condition that cannot be reversed.
根据国家卫生研究院表示,坏死是身体组织死亡的征兆,当过少血液流经组织时,坏死就会出现。这种病症并不能得到修复。
Alves shared a before-and-after photo on his Instagram two weeks ago, apparently still feeling positive about his surgeries, with the caption, "42 plastic surgeries, 305K English pounds very well spent!"
两周前,阿尔维斯在INS上分享了一张手术前后对比照,还附言说:"42次整形手术,花了30.5万英镑真是超值!"
The Anxiety and Depression Association of America notes that people who have body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) think about their real or perceived flaws for hours each day. People with BDD can't control negative thoughts about their looks and don't believe people who tell them that they look fine. They may even undergo unnecessary plastic surgeries to correct perceived imperfections, but never find satisfaction with the results.
美国抑郁焦虑协会表示,身体畸形恐惧症患者每天都会花数小时时间来思量他们的身体缺陷。身体畸形恐惧症的患者无法控制自己不去想外表的缺陷,并不相信人们对他们的称赞。他们甚至还会接受不必要的整形手术来矫正想象中的不完美。但是,他们对手术结果永远不会感到满意。
We sincerely hope Alves gets better, and that if and when he does, he and the woman trying to look like Barbie can connect and start a support group.
我们真诚地祝愿阿尔维斯早日康复,并且希望他能够和那位整容成芭比的小姐早日接触,并组成一支亲友团。
