Sometimes a pair of twins grow up trying to be as unlike each other as possible, and other times they try to be indistinguishable. In the U.K. recently two identical twins, Jo and Kerry Burton, have been living duplicate lives. After spending childhood duplicating each other’s chickenpox, careers in the Brownies, and ballet lessons, they have spent 13 years of their adulthood having the same cosmetic surgeries. They are 34 years of age now.

Their goal is to continue to look indistinguishable from each other and to that end they have spent 60,000 U.K. pounds on operations done by the same cosmetic surgeons:

  • Eyelid surgery
  • Rhinoplasty
  • Breast enlargement
  • BOTOX® injections

They started when they were aged 21 with nose surgery to create the same curve in their noses. That was inspired by a photographer who was working with them as twin models. At age 26, they began the BOTOX® treatments and have kept them up to maintain the same smooth foreheads. They have each had one child, after which they had the breast implants to take them from size 34B to size 34DD.

In addition to these procedures, they have had facials, permanent eyeliner tattooed on to their eyelids, hair extensions, spray-on suntans, manicures and pedicures, not to mention two closetfuls of identical clothing.

So that their cosmetic surgeon could tell them apart when they had surgeries on the same day, they had their initials written on their bellies.

These twins co-own a beauty salon in Hertfordshire and have not ruled out more cosmetic surgeries in the future.
