Brazilian Rodrigo Alves (pictured left, today, and right, before surgery), 30, has spent more than ￡100,000 in ten years on cosmetic surgery
Rodrigo told This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield: 'Growing up in Brazil I hated the way I looked. I'm a naturally smiley person and my nose would spread all over my face. My family would say: "Where did you get that nose from?"
'It started with a nose job. And it carried on.I did one nose job and I wasn't happy with it, so went back for another one. I'm still not happy with it.'

What are the symptoms of Body Dysmorphic Disorder?
People with BDD may:
Constantly compare their looks with other people's
Spend a long time in front of a mirror, and at other times avoid mirrors altogether
Spend a long time concealing what they believe is a defect
Become distressed by a particular area of their body (commonly their face)
Feel anxious when around other people
Seek medical treatment for the perceived defect – for example, they may have cosmetic surgery, which is unlikely to relieve their distress
Excessively diet and exercise
