Actor Francisco Mariano Javier Ibanez said he had 30 plastic surgeries to look like Ricky Martin. According to him, some friends have always said that the two are similar physically and he decided to pursue this dream.
“It started a long time ago when I was told I looked like Ricky Martin. I took it as a joke, but I started making some changes and the likeness grew. […] I took a picture of him, and I realized I love him, and like everything in life, when I love something, I go for it,” he said in an interview with City Magazine.
However, Ibanez claimed that he was the victim of medical errors in plastic surgery. “I had oil on my eyebrows and eyelids, and it was falling off. Another doctor took it off, but the scar remained. Now I have contact lenses, otherwise I can’t see. When it injected me, I was asleep, and I woke up feeling a lot of pain and my whole face was swollen,” he told the Argentine newspaper. . day.
He further explained why he wanted to make the aesthetic transformation: “I wanted to feel like a good, normal person. I didn’t want to. I was abused by my brother. I wanted to be someone else, and I don’t know if I necessarily wanted to be Ricky Martin, but that I will be someone else.” Currently, after starting psychiatric follow-up, Ibanez says, “Surgeries are only a last resort.”
