Woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit gets world's biggest lips with 4,000 worth of silicone injections

A woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit has won the dubious honour of being in possession of the world's biggest lips after enlarging them with 100 silicone injections costing more than 4,000.
Kristina Rei, 22, was convinced her thin lips made her ugly so she opted to get them boosted - in the style of her favourite cartoon character.
Now the nail technician admits she has an addiction, and aims to make her so-called trout pout even bigger.
Each injection costs roughly 40 and is 'extremely painful' but Kristina, from St Petersburg, Russia, insists nothing will stop her.

She said: 'I think I look fantastic and it makes me happy. Sometimes strangers shout names at me in the street - like big lips - but I don't care.
'I want to go more extreme. I want to look like a cartoon character. I am addicted to it, I love it.'
Kristina said she has always believed her lips were too small and used to compare them to those around her.
She said: 'My older sister Ira had beautiful, full lips and I loved Jessica Rabbit's huge lips. She was my idea of the perfect woman.
'From the age of four I thought my lips seemed thinner than everyone else's and I decided when I was quite young to get them enhanced.
'In Russia, you see adverts for silicone and Botox on TV all the time.'
At school Kristina was bullied because of her looks. She said: 'My classmates called me 'ugly'. They didn't tease me because of my lips specifically - but I believed big, full lips would make me beautiful.'

Deluded? The 22-year-old says a fixation with Jessica Rabbit led her to enlarge her lips to cartoonish proportions

Aged 17, Kristina went to a local beauty parlour for her first lip injection.
She said: 'The first one was extremely painful but I loved the result. I knew it was going to take a lot more injections before I had the sort of lips I wanted.
'After that I started having them regularly - the beauticians never seemed to be surprised when I turn up for more injections.' Kristina, who is single, recently reduced the injections to once every few months.

Determined: Despite verbal abuse for her 'trout pout! ' Kristi na has vowed to keep having surgery in a bid to have the world's biggest lips

She said: 'My big lips have helped boost my confidence. Even my parents are happy for me. They really don'tcare about my appearance. Some of my friends have told me I shouldn't go any bigger but I'm not satisfied yet.'
Despite constant stares from strangers, Kristina, who has never had a boyfriend, loves her bizarre appearance.

Unattainable: Ms Rei claims her larger lips make her look more like her idol Jessica Rabbit

She said: 'I know some people think I look ridiculous but I don't care.
Sometimes I like the attention I get like when people try to film me on their mobile phones. Some of the abuse has been hurtful - I've been told I look like a man but those people are idiots.'
Kristina insists she can eat, speak and kiss just the same as before and hasn't suffered any painful after-effects.
She said: 'Each injection hurts as much as the last. Fortunately I've never suffered with an infection or painful lips afterwards.'
And she's so happy with the modification that she is planning to have more surgery in the future.
She said: 'Other than the way I look my lips haven't had a big impact on my life so I'm definitely not going to stop now.
'I have no health concerns about what I'm doing. Nothing has gone wrong so far. I haven't decided how big yet but they are definitely too small at the moment.
'When I can afford it I want to enlarge my breasts from a C-cup to a DD, change the shape of my nose and I want to make my ears pointed like an elf. It's good to be different.'
