EXCLUSIVE: 'My lungs could be compromised': Frustrated 'Human Ken Doll' Rodrigo Alves laments having only four and not SIX ribs removed in a bid for an 'elegant and classic figure'
Earlier this month he revealed plans to have six ribs removed in what would be his landmark 60th cosmetic procedure.
But Human Ken Doll Rodrigo Alves admits he has been left frustrated after surgeons refused to perform the full procedure over fears it would compromise his lungs.
Instead, a top Hollywood surgeon will remove four floating ribs in a £28k procedure slated to take place next month to give the distinguished jet-setter, who has spent an estimated £400,000 on plastic surgeries, an 'elegant and classic figure.'

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, the 34-year-old said he was initially disappointed not to have the green-light for the original operation after he tried to convince his doctor to remove six ribs.
He said: 'I was frustrated at first because I really want to be able to fit back into my four breast blazers as before but removing two extra ribs could compromise my lungs, and my doctors must be very careful that my health is not compromised.
'They said a big no to that and said that safety always come first.
'Aesthetically speaking the results will be the same as if six ribs were removed. The visual impact will be the same.'

The fashion-forward star said he was motivated to go under the knife once more so he would feel more confident in his couture blazers, and because he felt his hunky physique had become 'shapeless and big'.
Despite his extensive catalogue of procedures, the socialite admitted to nerves ahead of the operation, which he says has been favoured by many celebs, but said he was looking forward to not 'bursting out of his slim-fit blazers.'
He said: 'It will be my surgery number 60 between countless procedures but I'm nervous yes because this is not a plastic surgery where skin or fat will be removed, we are talking about my floating ribs,
'I have being advised by all the doctors that it is a safe procedure but it is unknown to the public because people that have it done don’t talk about it.

'Having ribs removed isn’t plastic surgery. It is a real surgery where the doctors will be changing the shape on my mid body to a very small size.
'I’m very much image conscious and I love my fashion. The rib removal will change my body shape quite dramatically and the results will be seen instantly. Afterwards that I won't be bursting in my slim fit blazers anymore. I shall gain a very elegant and classic figure.'
The socialite is now on a health kick to ensure he is in the best condition for his upcoming procedure in Los Angeles, including abstaining from alcohol, travel and working out with three personal trainers dotted across the globe.
He said: 'I needed a break from parties and drinking in order to prepare myself for the most risky procedure that I have ever had which is to take place in the first week of January in Los Angeles
'The team of doctors told me that I should work out at the gym everyday from now on so the muscles around the ribs is stronger.
