An influencer and model has revealed that her dreams of becoming a mother have been ‘destroyed’ due to having too many filler injections.
Jennifer Pamplona, 31, often makes headlines for her “surgery-addicted” lifestyle, spending over a million dollars to look like her idol Kim Kardashian.
But now, she has received the heartbreaking news that she has little chance of conceiving a baby due to complications related to her buttock fillers.
Jennifer Pamplona began undergoing plastic surgery at the age of 17
The model says she has undergone more than 30 procedures all over her body and face.
“I’ve always dreamed of being a mother,” Jennifer, who has one million followers on Instagram (@jenniferpamplona), told Need To Know.
‘Since I was young, I imagined the moment when I would have my own children and start a family.
‘Now I see that I am being destroyed by something I thought was a solution to improve my appearance.
“The suffering is immense and the pain of not being able to create life is something I never imagined I would have to face.”
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is a substance used to create dermal fillers, often to improve skin contour or help repair scars.
It is also the ideal option for buttock augmentation.
However, there are risks, including inflammation and infections.
As a result, the substance can migrate from the injection site to other parts of the body, including the pelvic area, which can affect the functioning of the reproductive organs.
According to Dr. Carlos Ríos, a plastic surgeon specializing in Jennifer’s case, she began experiencing intense pain in her buttocks and legs after undergoing the procedure more than 10 years ago.
He spoke about the model and the complications she has faced as a result, in a self-produced documentary called Addiction, calling her situation a “matter of life and death.”
Dr Rios said: ‘Jennifer had PMMA injected into her buttocks in a procedure known as bioplasty.
‘The symptoms she presented were a direct consequence of this procedure.
‘She was hanging by a thread.
‘With meditation, proper diet, supplementation and medication, we have managed to stabilize her for now.
“It was a matter of life or death.”
She only decided to stop her plastic surgeries after she was diagnosed with body dysmorphia in 2022.

He added: “My limitations are severe and I don’t know what the future holds for me.”
‘I knew I had a problem, but I hadn’t faced it yet.
‘I like to say that if everyone paid attention to their emotional health, procedures would be less frequent.
‘But it is important to mention that I am not against plastic surgery, as long as it is done consciously.’
