ITV X Factor star Christopher Maloney shares huge regret over drastic surgeries
X Factor contestant Christopher Maloney regrets getting four cosmetic procedures done in three months, admitting it's "a bit much".
The 45-year-old singer first found fame on the 2012 series of the talent show, in which he came third. He now regularly shares updates with fans, recently admitting he thinks he's gone 'too far' with his treatments. Having been open with fans about the fact he has body dysmorphia, he's now opened up to the Liverpool Echo about his new 'Turkey teeth'.
Speaking to the paper, he said: "I was a bit apprehensive going abroad to get my teeth done, but my old teeth were done in the UK and very poorly fitted, they were all chipped and I couldn't really speak properly. But going to Comfortzonedent in Bodrum was the best choice."

All I have to do now is wait eight months for my new hair transplant to grow, then I'll be content."
The treatments all took place within 12 weeks, with Chris saying he thinks he should have staggered the surgeries.

He admitted: "I just wish I'd have spaced them out, as I think, double eye-Blepharoplasty, nose job, hair transplant, new teeth all in 12 weeks is a bit much for anyone's body to take. But it's done now and I'm happy with the result."
Back in June, the musician shared his eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) journey, a cosmetic procedure to remove excess skin or fat from the eyelids, with the aim of improving hooded or drooping eyelids or eye bags. Posting the gruesome-looking photos from immediately after his eyelid lift, fans were shocked by his appearance. He said that he suffers from body dysmorphia, a mental health confusion causing sufferers to find flaws in their appearance that are often not noticeable to others.
The photo showed his bruised face and eyes covered in stitches, while he tried to see through them. Implying he wasn't happy with the results, he said: "Think I’ve gone too far. I need a hug."
In a chat on This Morning back in 2015, Chris said that trolling on social media prompted him to go under the knife.
At the time, he admitted: "The X Factor was great, but as the series was going on, I was getting really bad trolls. I was called Mr Potato Head, that I was ugly, that I had a big nose, and it just affected me so much, and at the end of the final, I did have a breakdown. I feel so much better now. It has made me more confident and now I'm looking forward to the future."
