The curtain of the 4-month long contest fell on Friday night, 22-year-old man-made beauty Yao Xiting distinguished herself from 14 contestants, who all experienced 14 items of star-making plastic surgery in September last year.

The surgeries including breast augmentation and teeth rectification were broadcast live on a popular Internet website, which cooperated with the TV channel to win supporters for the program.
