90 Day Fiancé: What Is Body Dysmorphia & Does Larissa Suffer From It?

Does Larissa Dos Santos Lima from 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? suffer from body dysmorphia? Fans have noticed the star has trouble seeing the inner and outer beauty she has to offer.

This past season, Larissa has become more and more self-involved when it comes to her looks. Each new episode has shown her getting some form of cosmetic surgery or procedure to enhance her looks. She has told friends that she wants to look like a stripper because she thinks they are the hottest women. Instead of working, Larissa has been concentrating on altering her appearance with numerous cosmetic surgeries. During the last episode, she decided to make a deal with the devil and ask her boyfriend, Eric Nichols, for the money to get a boob job. He agreed to help, but there were strings attached.

Larissa already had plastic surgery before deciding to ask Eric for more. She admitted that she's hooked on plastic surgery. Fans are starting to think the reality star may suffer from body dysmorphia and have a serious issue with how she sees herself. Body dysmorphia, also known as body dysmorphic disorder, is a mental health disorder in which a person can’t stop thinking about one or more perceived flaws in their appearance (via Mayo Clinic). The flaw often appears as minor to others, but weighs heavily on the individual. Many can feel embarrassed or anxious and try to avoid showing the particular body part.

Fans of the TLC show have noticed that Larissa seems to dislike parts of herself that seem completely normal to others. She explained to the cameras that after having her two children, her breasts now sag and are not as inflated. She feels that getting DD implants will make up for the years of breastfeeding. The plastic surgeon tried to warn her about the complications of going too big, but Larissa doesn't care. She also wants a nose job, claiming her nose is puffy at the end. To viewers, however, her nose looks completely normal. The reality star often claims she does not feel confident after having married Colt Johnson because he manipulated her. In the last episode, she explained that after she found out Eric and Colt got together to trade their sex stories, she felt like less of a woman and totally destroyed. While the Brazillian may be suffering from some form of dysmorphia, viewers also believe she needs to start feeling better about herself since she is very attractive. Many believe she is putting too much weight on what the men in her life have to say.

The new episode on Sunday will show Larissa headed to her consultation for her nose and boob job. The procedure in total will cost a pretty penny at about $20,000. Hopefully, Eric thinks she is worth it.
