A WOMAN obsessed with plastic surgery has revealed she spends £1k a month keeping up with glamorous looks.
Ashleigh Candela, first went underneath the knife at 19, when she got breast implants, going from a natural B bust to an E cup.
The now 37-year-old looks world’s apart from her former younger self after splashing out more than £50k ($100,000 Aus) on plastic and cosmetic procedures.
Ashley, from Australia, told 7news: ““It just escalated from there.
“I just love the look of plastic surgery.
“To be honest, I wasn’t unhappy with myself but I knew I wanted to fix things and once I got started I couldn’t stop.

Ashley said she has lost count of the amount of surgeries and procedure’s she has had done in the 18 years she has been having them.
Over the years, she’s had lips, cheeks and jaw fillers, Botox, rhinoplasty, eyelid reduction, liposuction, Brazilian butt lift, fat transfer to her hips, skin tightening, eyebrow feathering, and porcelain veneers.
Ashleigh said she had always wanted rhinoplasty to fix the broken nose she got growing up.
She added: ““I look at myself in the mirror and I’m super happy with the way I look. I don’t have any regrets of what I’ve done.”
Ashleigh explained her transformation has given her lots of new opportunities in her life, but that it’s not all about her looks as she has a good personality to match it.
But despite spending $1k on treatments every month to maintain her glam look, Ashleigh has also been reversing some treatments, like her face and lip filler.
“As I got older, I started thinking about dissolving the fillers in my face just to have a more natural look,” she says.
“I’m currently dissolving the fillers in my face, around under my eye areas because they were so overfilled over the years.
“Next week, I’m getting my lips dissolved… I don’t want overfilled lips anymore. The trend sort of died down for me.”
“But I still love the big oversize breasts and my big bum – I wouldn’t change that for the world.” Says Ashleigh.
Ashleigh says strangers assumed the reason she had surgery was ‘because she hates herself’, but that isn’t the case.
She explained: ““It has nothing to do with how I feel about myself at all. I think that’s just a misconception people have about those who get plastic surgery.”
Since showing her new look on social media, Ashleigh has received cruel comments from trolls from time to time, but she doesn’t let that affect her.
“The negative comments don’t really faze me at the end of the day. It’s a reflection of them, it’s not a reflection on me,” she says.

“I don’t really care if you hate me honestly. My life is my life. I have my friends who love me no matter what I do.”
She adds: “I think everyone has a right to live how they want to live. I’m not here judging anyone, I’m not hurting anyone.”
