The woman recently revealed that she had found a new life after wearing an artificial chest made of jewelry.
Xuan Zai (22) was born as a rare disease 'Polish Syndrome', according to Chinese media such as the Feng Pai Shimbun.
Polish syndrome is a congenital disease in which one chest or nipple is less developed or not developed, and the chest muscles and limbs on one side of the body are not developed properly.
It usually appears about three times more in men than in women, and in most cases, it shows symptoms on the right side of the body. The exact cause of the outbreak is unknown, and the incidence rate is estimated to be about 1 in 10,000 to 100,000 people.
Although it does not affect life expectancy, breathing problems and lack of appearance confidence may appear depending on the condition.
She said she had low self-esteem when she was young, knowing that she looked different from her classmates. I haven't even worn a swimsuit or sleeveless shirt since I was young.
I also put a pad or cloth inside my bra to make my chest look symmetrical, and I took a habitually bent position.
Some people complained that her father must have left because of her disability. School classmates even laughed at her physical condition.
According to her, she had breast reconstruction surgery as a teenager, but it was useless, so she wore a plaster corset for three years. The rib deformity sometimes made it difficult to breathe.
Meanwhile, she asked Xiaowi, the operator of the jewelry brand, for help in 2022, which produced artificial bodies that correct deformities.
Xiaowi's team went out to help her and finally made an artificial chest of pink and silver jewels in 2023.
Xuan Zai called it 'the second heart'.
Last year, she appeared in the documentary short film `The Girl Wearing an Artificial Chest" and said, `Thanks to my new chest, I was able to regain my confidence and wear my sleeveless shirt to my heart's content.' I hope everyone suffering from the same disease will have hope and courage," he added.
Netizens who heard the news said "Your courage is great and beautiful" and "Second Heart" is like your future.", "How hard was it when you were young?" give a back reaction.
