Pixee Fox from Sweden underwent nearly 20 plastic surgeries in order to fulfill her dream of resembling a cartoon character.

Initially, her "ideal" was Jessica Rabbit, a cartoon character from Gary Wolf's novel.

As reported: Сlutch.net.ua

However, later on, she decided to transform herself into the mermaid Ariel.

To come as close as possible to the desired result, Pixee underwent the following procedures, requiring her to go under the plastic surgeon's knife 17 times: removal of six ribs, waist reduction, lip and breast augmentation.

It is worth noting that she came perilously close to losing her life during one of the interventions.

The girl wanted to reduce her waist to 35 centimeters, but complications arose during the surgery, resulting in her spending a week in a coma.

Pixee shares every aspect of her life with her followers on her microblog.

This is how she explained her pursuit of a cartoon-like image:

"These cartoon characters embody the idealization of the female body.

I want to have a tiny waist, a big butt, large breasts, big eyes, and a truly beautiful face.

The removal of ribs was another step toward achieving this ideal."
