Anastasia Pokreshchuk is 32 years old and a decade ago decided to change every feature of her face.
She started with cheek fillers when she was barely in her twenties, and she did not stop there: she added forehead Botox, dental veneers, breast implants and, later on, a butt augmentation.
Ukraine saw her grow up as a young woman who, as she recounted on British television, felt like ‘a gray mouse’ and hated the size of her nose.
Today she is known throughout the world for having, as she herself claims, the biggest cheeks on the planet.
When she shared a photograph of what she looked like before all this, millions of people saw her and could not believe it was the same woman.
Cruel comments were not lacking, but Anastasia says she ignores them or simply laughs at them: she says she feels, for the first time, exactly as she always wanted to look.
