Video: Plastic Surgeon Father Gives His Daughters The Gift Of Boob Jobs (And So Much More)
An Orange County father has been giving his daughters plastic surgery since one of them was the young age of ten. Since then, he can throw in boob jobs, nose jobs, and Botox treatments to that list.
How sweet.
Dr. Michael Niccole's two daughters, Brittani Niccole, 25, and Charm Niccole, 26, have been swimming in the lap of luxury in Orange County. It all started when Charm wanted her outtie belly button to be an innie when she was ten, and has gone under the knife for breast implants this year. The doctor gave Brittani a boob job for her 18th birthday and a nose job on her 21st.
"When I graduated high school Dad surprised me by saying, 'I've scheduled you in to have your boobs done next week,' Brittani said, according to Daily Mail. "I was so excited."

It's not out of the norm for Orange County though, according to Brittani. "Getting your breast done is basically like getting a teeth cleaning here," she told Barcroft Media in the video. "[It's] abnormal not to have a breast augmentation out here."
On top of also getting facial peels and Botox regularly, Charm also gets Botox injections in her armpits, so she can stop sweating. We all can relate to that.
