Marilyn Monroe had a boob job as well as a sponge chin implant, according to a US cosmetic surgery expert.
The film star had probably been given liquid silicone injections in her breasts and they were infected before her death from an overdose, according to Joan Kron, editor at large of US beauty bible Allure.
There was a scramble at auction last week to buy X-rays of Marilyn’s skull.
Secret surgery: A friend of Marilyn Monroe said that before her death ‘her breasts were infected’, probably from liquid silicone injections
The haunting images from 1962 were captured one week after her 36th birthday and two months before her death – and appear to show she had a procedure on her chin.
Alongside the scans were medical notes by her plastic surgeon, Michael Gurdin.
The possible breast op is revealed in Ms Kron’s blog for Allure.com.
She writes: ‘Her X-rays have been under lock and key in the office of Norman Leaf, a Los Angeles plastic surgeon who inherited them upon the retirement of Gurdin, his medical partner.
Leaf treated Monroe’s chart like a sacred relic, showing it to a select few. I was lucky to be in that group.’
Before: Marilyn pictured in 1949, before she had the alleged implants and breast injections
Marilyn had her first chin operation – carried out by John Pangman, a surgeon who often operated in Gurdin’s office – in 1950 after overhearing herself being called ‘a chinless wonder’.
‘The implant was sponge, not cartilage,’ says Ms Kron.
She says of the breast enhancements: ‘I learned of those in 1995 when I interviewed Rosemary Eckersley, a friend of Monroe and the widow of Franklin Ashley, another legendary Hollywood surgeon.
‘She told me before Monroe’s death “her breasts were infected”, probably from liquid silicone injections.’
