'We're ashamed of what we did to ourselves' 

Twins who spent £150,000 on plastic surgery to ensure they were ‘identical’ reveal they ‘regret it all’

My news article which was taken from The Sun is about twins who spent £150,000 on plastic surgery to ensure that they looked exactly like each other. They made sure that all surgeries that they had were the same from breast implants all the way to eyebrow and eyeliner tattoos.

 

 

However the twins now say that they regret it all and are going for a more natural and healthy look. They said: “What we thought was pretty... we find ugly now.”

The twins have sort treatment for their body dysmorphia and are now taking antidepressants, they are also taking steps to restore their original looks. Although they are reluctant to go back under the knife the pair have kept to their strict skincare regime which includes face masks, leg masks, body scrubs and body brushes.
Personally I think that they went over the top with the surgeries that they had although I could understand the insecurities that they may of had and thought that this was the best action to take. Society and the media is a main aspect as to why these girls and many go and have surgery.
In the interview Lucy said: “We look for flaws in each other every day.”
She also explained that if one of them even has a spot, they will refuse to leave the house for the day. This really emphasises and brings to reality the struggles many girls face each and everyday.

The effect that this has on the audience is that it is a real eye opener, it highlights the real dangers of plastic surgeries and the problems it can cause. For any female reading this article and considering surgery then this could possibly change their minds or make them reconsider.

Lucy said: “We're ashamed about what we did to ourselves, but we're owning it and embracing our diagnosis.”
