Lolo Ferrari - Breast Enlargements

Breast Enlargements

Encouraged by her husband, beginning in 1990 Eve underwent numerous plastic surgery operations to create a 180-centimetre (71 in) silicone-enhanced bust (she was originally a 37 inch bust) (22 enlargements, a Guinness world record). The Guinness Book of Records says each of her breasts weighed 2.8 kilograms (6.2 lb) and contained three litres of saline. She had to wear a specially engineered brassiere, and as a result of her many surgeries she suffered from a number of medical afflictions and lived with a heavy regimen of drugs. Her brassiere measurements have been given by various sources as 58F, 54G, and 54J, although these measurements appear false, breasts of similar size have a bra size of around 36T or 36MMM. The breast implants themselves were reputed to be designed by an engineer who was involved with the design of the Boeing 747.

In interviews, she said about her surgeries "All this stuff has been because I can't stand life. But it hasn't changed anything" and "I was frightened and I was ashamed; I wanted to change my face, my body, to transform myself. I wanted to die, really." Some psychologists have conjectured that she might have suffered from dysmorphophobia.
