Woman with 'world's biggest lips' looked so different before all the filler
Andrea Ivanova made it her mission to get the "world's biggest lips". In a bid to get the plumpest pout possible, she's been getting fillers done for years. The 28-year-old has spent £20,000 on her jaw-dropping transformation, which has left some medical professionals refusing to treat her because she's had too much work done.
The assistant nurse, from Sofia in Bulgaria, didn't just focus on her smackers. Andrea has also had other work done to alter her look. She's had hyaluronic acid injections in the chin, jawline and cheekbones, as well as a breast augmentation operation with 600cc silicone implants.
To finish off her plastic surgery transformation, Andrea now sports Barbie-blonde locks and bleached eyebrows. She often applies fluttery eyelashes and emphasises her smile with bold lipstick.
However, her appearance didn't always used to be so unique. The 28-year-old looked totally unrecognisable before she started getting jabbed.
She had a much more natural appearance – as seen by her stunning throwback pictures. Andrea used to be a brunette bombshell with more subtle features.
While some prefer Andrea's pre-surgery look, she's garnered more than 38,000 followers since she started altering her appearance. What's more, the influencer enjoys standing out from the crowd.
Previously, she said: "I like exaggerated things like huge lips, a face with many fillers, heavy and eccentric make-up.
'I don't like boring ordinary appearances and I am a fan of huge shapes and eccentric beauties. Natural beauty is boring to me so I decided to change my appearance radically.'
Even though Andrea's family have expressed their dismay about her changing face in the past, she's not fazed by the criticisms she receives.
She added: 'I'm an adult, I decide what to do with my body. My friends have no qualms about going out with me, despite my huge lips, and they accept me for who I am.
'They are used to looking at me now with big lips, so are no longer impressed by it all. But my parents and grandparents constantly tell me my lips are huge and that I look scary to them. I don't pay attention to their words.'

Woman with 'world's biggest lips' reveals what she looked like before surgery
A woman who claims to have the 'world's biggest lips' has revealed what she looked like before undergoing dramatic surgery and getting copious amounts of lip filler. Andrea Ivanova from Bulgaria regularly hits the headlines due to her enhanced appearance, which has seen her fork out an estimated $27,000 on lip filler alone after starting her transformation in 2018. The 27-year-old has previously admitted she struggles to find love because of her bold look, but it hasn't stopped her from achieving her goal of having the most exagerrated lips and cheeks in the world. Now, Andrea has revealed what she looked like before altering her face via cosmetic enhancements. In her 'before' photos, a youthful Andrea can be seen with regular proportioned lips. But since undergoing her enhancement journey, she has become scarcely recognizable. Her long list of treatments included chin shaping, enlargement and lengthening; jaw shaping and lip augmentation; as well as cheekbone enhancement - all at once. She's previously spoken about how she likes to stand out from the crowd with her unique look. 'I like exaggerated things like huge lips, a face with many fillers, heavy and eccentric make-up. 'I don't like boring ordinary appearances and I am a fan of huge shapes and eccentric beauties. Natural beauty is boring to me so I decided to change my appearance radically.' The social media influencer has spoken openly about having had six procedures done in a single day as an 'experiment' - even though her usual doctor refused to do it. 'My doctor was afraid to inject more hyaluronic acid into my lips, but I was adamant that I wanted more, and I will not stop. 'I wanted to do six procedures at once. Until now, I always did these on different areas of the face on different days.' Andrea had previously only ever had a maximum of three needles in her face at the same time. 'But this time, I wanted to experiment with myself to see how many injections and [amounts of filler] would affect my body,' she said. She even had to seek out a doctor in Germany to do the procedures, which went ahead in February last year, as her usual surgeon simply refused. And even though Andrea was excited about the experience, she confessed it had been extremely painful. 'I have pain all over my face right now and my jaw and chin hurt a lot,' she said at the time. 'It's hard for me to smile because of the pain in my cheekbones and there's a pulling sensation over my face.' But Andrea insisted the feeling was normal after treatment because the 'filler hadn't settled into place'. Although she finds eating difficult, Andrea is adamant her lips 'don't hurt'. She added: 'I only feel a slight discomfort, but that's where I have the most amount of filler and where I've had injections the most amount of times. The more filler there is, the less the area hurts.' Despite the pain, Andrea doesn't have any plans to slow down or reduce her voluptuous look. The former philosophy student planned to go to Germany to visit the same surgeon, as her usual doctor is skeptical about going forward with her transformation.' But now even the German medical practitioner has revealed their concerns. 'I had no fears about having so many injections at once because I trust my doctor and they are a great professional in cosmetic surgery,' Andrea said. 'But they are afraid I'll get necrosis and have to have the tissue surgically removed from my lips if I carry on. 'There are risks involved, such as inflammation, and raised body temperature, especially with so much at once.' 'I have facial swelling and bruising right now, which is normal due to the many needles, but I think in a few days, I'll recover.' She continued: 'You shouldn't judge people for their looks. It's their taste and no one has the right to be offended because of it. 'I think I'm going to carry on doing multiple injections in one day going forward, as it makes me very happy.'

This condition can be caused by radiation, chemicals or injury, and in some cases can be fatal.
