A BARBIE doll wannabe who has tripled the size of her lips plans to go even bigger, saying she wants to have the biggest lips in the world.
Andrea Ivanova, 22, says she feels happier and more contented after undergoing 15 procedures in which hyaluronic acid was injected into her lips.
The student, who is from Bulgaria and studies German Philology at Sofia University, says she paid around £135 per treatment to achieve a look she had wanted from an early age.
“I like my lips now more than before," she said.
"I feel very good and very happy with my new lips, because according to me with bigger lips I look prettier.
"I have visited almost all clinics for aesthetic procedures in [Bulgarian capital] Sofia and I put in my lips almost all kinds of lips fillers.
"I didn't count the money for these procedures.
"I don't know exactly how much money have I spent on my lips"
Andrea, who began her transformation last year, has amassed 15,000 followers on Instragram, where she posts selfies that show off her look.
She receives dozens of comments from fans and admirers all over the world as well as some backlash from people criticising her extreme appearance.
"I get thousands of messages of compliments on my lips and on my outfit, and on my vision and style every day from people all over the world," she said.
"I have both positive and negative comments, but women write most of the negative comments.
"There are people who like me with bigger lips and there are people who like me with smaller lips but it doesn't matter to me, because it's important for me how I like it.
"I'm broad-minded and I think people should be free to choose, which one is for them big, bigger or too big.
"There are no boundaries for me."
Asked whether she wants the world's biggest lips, Andrea said: "Yes, why not? But in my country the big lips are fashionable and there are many girls with fillers in the lips too.
"And for the biggest lips in the world I think I still have competition.
"I don't have any idols but I think [adult film actress] Nicolette Shea is a very beautiful woman.
"But I think I’m unique, different and I have a completely individual style and vision.
"I don't look like anyone and I don't imitate anyone."

She added: “I'm glad that the universe gave me the chance [for] many people to see me and to know that I exist and I want to tell people: Be happy and do what you like.
"Don't let others restrict your choice."
