Heidi Montag sort-of shocked people when she emerged after a whole couple of months with a brand new face and giant painful-looking boobs. She told People Magazine that she was “obsessed” and “addicted” to plastic surgery, a claim she later denied as she went on multiple celebrity shows to premiere her new generic face and promote her album that flopped fantastically.

Heidi’s doctor appeared with her on Good Morning America to defend his decision to perform 10 operations on the 23 year-old “singer” at once. He said that the risks were minimal because Heidi was so young and healthy. Then Heidi told Access Hollywood that she almost died during the recovery period when her breathing slowed dramatically. Her doctor countered that if Heidi had serious complications, it “didn’t happen as far as I know.”

Now Heidi’s doctor is promoting his willingness to warp anyone into an older, plastic-looking clone in a serious of interviews with Radar Online. He told the gossip site that Heidi’s surgeries were a “smart career move,” but added in another segment that he wouldn’t enlarge Heidi’s enormous boobs past their current double-D state. Heidi has said that she wants unmanageable size “H” boobs that would match her first initial.

Reality TV star Heidi Montag’s ten plastic surgeries in one day shocked America — and now, speaking out for the first time, her surgeon Dr. Frank Ryan exclusively told RadarOnline.com that the stunning 23-year-old had the procedures done not only to enhance her appearance but also as part of a “well thought out career move.”

Ryan told us that Heidi decided to undergo drastic plastic surgery because she felt self-conscious about her out-sticking ears and protruding chin; but he also reveals she was motivated by the desire to look her best to excel in show business, an industry that, too often, focuses too much attention on style vs. substance.

“I couldn’t have done that,” Ryan said of the ten surgeries in a day. “Sitting down there with the wisdom of someone much older and thinking: ‘What is it I really need to do to propel my career?’ Is it right or wrong to use plastic surgery to propel your career? I don’t know. [But] since Marilyn Monroe and back, its been happening left and right, so that was her decision.”

Ryan also told us Montag’s husband Spencer Pratt was Heidi’s rock when it came to supporting his wife in her bold decision.

“I think Heidi was 100 percent essentially, and Spencer was plus minus about it,” Ryan said. “He wanted to support her because he really loves her — they are both a really loving couple — that frankly the public doesn’t know they are truly devoted to one another and loving, but he loves his wife and agreed to do it.”

In response to an exclusive report by RadarOnline.com detailing Montag’s father, Bill, being concerned for his daughter’s well-being, Ryan — who has performed as many as 20 surgeries on a patient in a single day — said he believes The Hills starlet’s decision making was sound.

“Liposuction and breast surgery goes on in great numbers,” he said. “Heidi is 23-years-old [and] has been voting for five years — she is an adult, she made an informed decision, she made a good call as an adult … dads are really anti-breast implants for their daughter actually, so the reaction is they want to support their daughter or son getting plastic surgery, because they want to be there for them, or saying, ‘Honey, you are perfect the way you are.’

“Doesn’t surprise me, quite frankly,” Ryan said.

Heidi’s doctor seemed pretty convincing in the video, like he really believed that Heidi was of sound mind when she decided to have all those surgeries. He minimized the vast amount of work she had done, though, and just started by describing how she had her ears pinned back (“We do that for six year olds”) and how she wanted her chin to be smaller, which is a common request for women. He didn’t defend the eight other things she had done, like making her existing nosejob even smaller, getting even bigger breast implants, an eye lift, having neck lipo and stomach lipo etc. He said “I think Heidi looks absolutely spectacular. Phenomenol. You have to keep in mind that she’s just human it’s just two months.” He said she’s still healing, though.

Heidi scored the cover of People Magazine with her plastic surgery story. In that sense it may have been incredibly short-sighted but “smart” by some people’s estimates to age herself over 10 years with a bunch of surgery she didn’t need. The sh*tty album she was promoting sold less than 1,0000 copies, though, and she financed the production herself to the tune of over a million dollars. All that money wasted and all she got was a much older face.
