A Brazilian Woman's Quest for the Perfect Assets

by Rajshri on May 9 2008 5:28 PM

A 28-year-old Brazilian woman has created a record of sorts by having 8 breast implant surgeries.

However, her desire to look even better is now being thwarted by doctors.

Model Sheyla Hershey has had 8 breast implants, which are each packed with almost two litres of silicone.

"I want to look better each day, every day," the Daily Telegraph quoted her, as telling FOXNews.com.

"Everybody's got a dream inside, you know? And, it's good when you can make your dream come true," she added.

However, doctors are now refusing to fulfil her desire of having even bigger boobs.

Her wish has been thwarted by state laws, which limit the amount of silicone that can be put into each breast.

Doctors said that her biggest medical risks are scar tissue around the mega-implants as well as shoulder and back pain.

Dr Manny Alvarez said that Hershey was being foolish.

"This woman says she wants to look better, but at some point we have to take a look at the definition of what looking better is," he said.

"There is such a thing as plastic surgery addiction and even though we have limited facts about this story, I'd say she is coming close to that," he added.
