Influencer who spent £1MILLION on plastic surgery claims she's now been kicked off dating apps for being 'too beautiful'
An influencer who claims she was blocked on dating apps for being 'too beautiful' has revealed she's been forced to look for love in the offline world.
Janaina Prazeres, 35, says her appearance was considered 'too good to be true' by the algorithms and users of the apps, who reported her profile.
The Brazilian model previously revealed she spent almost £1million on plastic surgery in a bid to become the world's 'most perfect woman'.
In an interview with Glamour Bulgaria, she said she created three different accounts, but was blocked each time, claiming that being 'too pretty' is 'exhausting'.
'At first, I thought it was a bug,' she told the outlet. 'But after creating three different accounts and being kicked off all of them, I realised something else was happening.
'They just said my account appeared inauthentic. I tried to appeal, but never got a response.'
The dating platform - which she did not specify - cited guideline violations but never specified the reason.
As a result, she decided to ditch the apps and return to traditional flirting.
'I went back to doing what our parents did. Casual conversations, eye contact...' she shared.
Janaina, who has nearly 900,000 followers on Instagram, has been under the knife 20 times - spending a staggering £758,000 to enhance her appearance.
Among the many procedures she's undergone over the years, Prazares has had a full facial 'harmonisation' and fillers, multiple rhinoplasties, a Brazilian Butt Lift, and a body lift costing around £66,000.
However, her old, faded passport photo exhibits the model in a more natural state, with a distinctly darker hair colour, a slightly wider nose, a less 'chiselled' face shape and lighter make-up.
During a recent international flight she was temporarily held at immigration upon arriving at Brazil after agents questioned the validity of her passport.
She alleged officers detained her for 40 minutes while questioning her identity at Sao Paolo International Airport, where she had planned to board a flight to the U.S.
She said: 'I always thought this might happen at some point, because my appearance has changed significantly over the years.
'But still, it was a shock - you never expect to be stopped at the airport when you've done nothing wrong.
'Officers asked several questions and even compared my photo with other images before granting me entry into the country.'
Admitting it was 'embarrassing', she renewed her passport with an updated photo when she was eventually let through the gates.
Prazeres said: 'I didn't want to go through that kind of embarrassment again.
'As soon as I arrived at my destination, I started looking into what I needed to get a new document with a more recent photo.'
The model warned: 'Perfection has its price.'
Prazeres was voted the 'Perfect Woman' by Playboy in Norway in 2023, after spending $300,000 at the time on plastic surgery.
After receiving the accolade from the famous adult magazine, she spoke out about how she's gone under the knife several times.
The Brazilian native believes being beautiful is 'the secret to a better life,' adding: 'I love feeling more beautiful - I always try to make my self-esteem high.'
The model reiterates that it is necessary to always choose a path with beneficial results for the body and the soul

'This is the secret to a better life. So if I can invest in [my beauty] I don't save.'
Janaina has also undergone non-invasive procedures.
'We have to take advantage of what medicine offers,' the model said. 'Choosing to have surgery is a strategy as I am unable to dedicate myself to dieting.
'I tried different diets and realized that some help immediately, but for me it is not advantageous.
'They are very regimented and become difficult to fit into the routine.
'I think the scalpel solves everything easier - the diet requires us to adapt to a new lifestyle and I'm not willing to do that.'
The model reiterates that it is necessary to always choose a path with beneficial results for the body and the soul.
Janaina revealed previously that she has weekly appointments with a psychologist.
'I think it's essential to go to therapy. It's an incredible and effective methodology,' she shared.
'The most important thing is to have care and love for ourselves and not be so critical.
'Looking at the good side of life is always persisting in our dreams.'
Janaina also takes part in bodybuilding, cardio training and electrical stimulation, and has a personal trainer to help her gain muscle.
'I eat balanced meals, with proteins, vegetables and carbohydrates,' she said.
'I avoid soft drinks and sugar but I can't do without fast food. I like doing my surgeries but I don't abandon my body.'
Elsewhere during her Glamour interview, Janaina revealed she started modelling at 18, but the Playboy Norway campaign was when her career really got a 'big boost'.
As for the future, she said she's excited to venture into the 'business world' and see where her new path will take her.
