A man has left social media stunned after sharing a video of extreme swelling following surgery – with the lad’s face so puffed up he can barely open his eyes.

Levi Jed Murphy, from Manchester, England, first had a cosmetic procedure done when he was just 19 years old, getting fillers.

Now 26, he’s splashed out around £50,000 on 15 beauty treatments including going under the knife for a nose job, buccal fat removal, neck liposuction, having his lips done and more – all because he’s “bored”.

In shocking videos that have racked up over 11.5 million views (@levijedmurphy ), Levi shares the recovery process – with users saying he looks unrecognisable.

“I’ve had a total of 15 surgical procedures, having surgery has always been something I enjoy,” the social media influencer, told NeedToKnow.co.uk.

“I get bored of my face very easily, so getting the opportunity to change it every so often feels good.

“Kinda like renewing your wardrobe each season but I renew my face.”

Levi shared the most recent procedure on social media, with 676,200 likes and hundreds of comments.

This included multiple procedures done in one go; a full facelift, deep temple brow lift, neck liposuction, scar revision, and buccal fat removal.

Levi said: “I’m currently in recovery still as I only got it done five days ago.

“It’s been one of the hardest recoveries I’ve had as I did have a complication with my facelift.

“I got a hematoma on one side of my face a few hours after surgery.

“So had to get the blood drained from a cut in my neck.

“I was scared i was gonna be left disfigured from the complication.

“But I since have got over that feeling and will probably undergo more surgery in the future.”

In the clip, Levi can be seen lying in a hospital bed with his face covered in purple, pink, and blue bruises.

His lips can also be seen doubled in size, as well as his eyes look extremely sore.

“What did u get done now???,” a follower asked him, to which Levi jokes “Erm I just got some highlights put in my hair. I don't know if you can see them, the little blonde bits, I feel like they’re really changed my face.” [sic]

Users have been quick to share their thoughts.

One person said: “OMG ARE YOU OKAY?”

Angel added: “HELP I DIDN'T REALISE IT WAS YOU.” [sic]

Patrick asked: “Did you get in a fight.”

Lilly wrote: “Mm yes really brings out ur eyes.” [sic]

Kay said: “Baby are you ok, does it hurt.”

“Omg!!! Who’s your hairdresser! Highlights looking amazing” joked one fan. [sic]

“Oh my gosh, wishing you well and a quick recovery,” added Stacey.

“Bro has a fight with Tyson fury,” wrote someone else. [sic]

Despite the physical side effects and extreme reactions from his fans, Levi still plans to have more surgery done in the future.

He added: “The reaction I get online is always mixed, but that’s what I enjoy.

“Hence why I show the side of plastic surgery that no one else really does.

“I like to show the reality of it, from the ugly recovery to the results.

“A lot of people think I am doing it out of addiction, attention-seeking, or mental health issues.

“Which is not true, I do it because I get bored and have no other plans, so think may as well get a new face.”
