You must have been familiar with the story of Iranian teenager Sahar Tabar who underwent 50 surgeries in an attempt to look like Hollywood heartthrob Angelina Jolie. It is safe to say that the girl looked intimidating after those surgeries. She was brutally trolled on the internet.
Twitter went abuzz after seeing her pictures on internet where some people referred her as zombies. Many had abhorred the new look of Tabar whereas there were some who thought against the surgeons who performed horrible surgeries on her. While Jolie’s ravishing beauty mesmerize people all across the world, Tabar’s unusual transformation was disappointing. It was bound to create uproar in people’s mind.
Now, Tabar has reacted to all the criticism that she is getting after her post-surgery pictures went viral. As Tabar has 4,50,000 followers on the Instagram account, she took to the platform to declare that she wasn’t at all happy with all the media attention that she is getting.
She suggested that her extreme look isn’t all that it appeared to be. However, she did not say anything about whether her looks was a result of surgeries alone or prosthetic makeup was also involved in it. It was often suggested that her horrible look was the result of cosmetics.

“Hello relatively dear followers, the picture that you’re scrutinizing, even though I didn’t like it, I kept it in… I must say I [did not have 50] surgeries, and foreign sites and channels were very biased in the way they talked about my photos. I thought these people are probably living in the 18th century and they haven’t seen or heard of technology or makeup and they are really surprised,” said Tabar.

After Tabar’s reaction to the viral photos, many were of the view that the pictures were fake as she referred to technology in the address that she made. However, there were also those who believed that Tabar was actually referring to surgeries that were performed on her. Tabar also said that the people who were criticizing her are actually jealous.

The Tabar’s reaction, which has come soon after her photos went viral, says two things. It was either her genuine reaction to the brutal comments or it was a very shrewd attempt to keep the story relevant. If this is an attempt to keep the story relevant then it can be said that the girl’s inspiration rather looks to be Kardashians than the mostly recluse Jolie.

Tabar’s look has also created an uproar among surgeons. Many surgeons were quite worried about Tabar’s health after seeing her pictures. One of the surgeons said, “This woman needs hospitalization, a feeding tube to increase protein intake and major intensive psychiatric therapy or she may die of starvation.”

Many others questioned the wax-like skin and peculiarly pinched nose as they are considered very unhealthy. The surgeons looked more concerned about the surgeon who was responsible for the unusual look of Tabar. They had less discussion on the look of Tabar. They questioned whether that surgeon had ever performed plastic surgery.
People were also agitated with the surgeon who performed the plastic surgery on Tabar. A user said that the surgeon should be skinned alive. One of them wrote, “Doesn’t matter if she asked for it, should’ve redirected her to a psychiatrist. This is madness.”

The Hippocratic oath was also reminded where it said that doctors should reject any surgical procedures they do not deem appropriate. It also keeps patient's health on first priority. According to the US National Library of Medicine - Consultant aesthetic surgeons may decline to operate on patients if they do not believe that the surgery is in the patients’ best interests. Aesthetic surgeons should be reluctant to operate on those with unrealistic expectations, as the risks of surgery may outweigh any benefits.
