Some people will do anything to find the perfect mate.
Shahnaz Khan will do that and then some. The 41-year-old British lecturer has spent the last decade and close to $40,000 on various plastic surgeries to make her face as impressive as her personality in order to find a husband, the Daily Mail reports.
"The problem was I had a plain, boorish face. I didn't feel ugly but when I went out I felt invisible and insignificant," she said. "When I thought about it more, I came to the conclusion that people looked past me - there was nothing about my face to hold their interest.
"I then realized that although I had developed my mind, I hadn't developed my appearance," she continued. "It doesn't matter how clever or worldly you are - people make snap judgments in seconds. The truth was that my outward appearance was holding me back."
Khan began her quest for physical perfection by getting $2,000 worth of permanent makeup tattooed on her face. She then followed it up with two nose jobs, a nose-tip lift and some eye work. But the piece de resistance was the surgical addition of a dimple in her left cheek.
"I wanted it to add character and interest to my face, give me a cheeky, cute look," she said of the surgery, which she had in Thailand for the bargain price of $1,000. "It was unbelievably painful but I was delighted with the results."
And yet, with a new face to match her three-degree education, Khan has yet to find a man.
"I am a virgin," she said. "I am not ashamed to admit it - I simply haven't met my Mr. Right."
