Question
Why did Michael Jackson get so much plastic surgery?

Answer
Good question, Sarah!

Believe it or not, this is the first time I have recieved this question.

Michael Jackson, unfortunately, suffers from a very strange and unusual disease that makes you believe that your body is something that is not. It is called Body-dismorphic syndrome. People who suffer from this disease also include bulimic, anorexic, and people who destroy themeselves. When he sees his face, he believes that it is imperfect and must be changed to fit his liking.

A lot of this plastic surgeries are due to age and one accident specifically regarding his nose. Other than this, the other surgeries were strictly voluntary.

I hope this answers your question. If you need anything else, please let me know.

Have a great day! :)
