Justin Jedlica (born August 11, 1980), known as the Human Ken Doll,[1] is an American man who has garnered international attention for undergoing over 280 cosmetic procedures.

Cosmetic procedures

At the age of seventeen, Jedlica began to research his first cosmetic procedure, rhinoplasty. Inspired by watching Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous as a teen, Jedlica saw body contouring and cosmetic surgery as emblematic of the wealthy, glamorous lifestyles he sought to emulate. His parents did not approve of cosmetic enhancements and Jedlica was forced to wait until he could legally make the choice for himself. Four days after his eighteenth birthday, Jedlica underwent his first cosmetic procedure, to reconstruct his nose.[2][3]

As of 2012, Jedlica had undergone approximately 190 cosmetic procedures.[4][5] These have included rhinoplasty, chest implants, shoulder implants, bicep implants, triceps implants, brow shaving and lifts, cheek augmentations, subpectoral implants, gluteoplasty, and lip augmentations.[6]

Jedlica has no facial hair. He appeared in the 6th season of Botched.

Personal life

Jedlica was born in Poughkeepsie, New York, the oldest of four siblings. He was brought up in Fishkill, New York and Cary, North Carolina, and graduated from Apex High School[7] where he first discovered his passion for visual and performing arts.[8] Jedlica was raised in the Christian faith and says he considers himself spiritual.[9]

Jedlica identifies as gay and wed his partner, a successful businessman, in a civil ceremony in July 2014 after five years of dating; the couple relocated for business purposes[10] to Chicago and resided in Trump Tower.[11][12] In 2016 they divorced after two years of marriage.[13]
