Plastic Surgery Could Have Killed the Human Ken Doll

Given the huge strides made by the body-positivity movement and the mental-health communities, it's hard to believe we live in a world where multiple people would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars (not to mention the weeks of pain and healing) to try to make themselves look like unrealistically proportioned children's toys. And yet the Internet has been abuzz once again this week with news that the so-called human Ken Doll was released from the hospital following a life-threatening complication from plastic surgery. Life in plastic, it's... maybe less fantastic than Aqua led us to believe.
