Britain’s vainest man is asking the NHS to help him REVERSE plastic surgery after declaring: “I no longer want to look like Joe Essex.”

Sam Barton, 23, has spent an astonishing £50,000 on procedures including teeth straightening and Botox to look like The Only Way is Essex star.

But the former Sutton Coldfield barman has already begun his transformation to a more natural look.

False hair has been removed, plastic fillers taken from his lips and his Botox has gone.

He also wants pearly white veneer teeth – which cost £17,500 – replaced with more natural looking gnashers, at a cost of £10,000.

Sam, grandson of Tony Barton, Aston Villa’s European Cup winning manager, also wants a nose job reversal and is set to ask the NHS to foot the bill.

The former wannabe celebrity, from Four Oaks, told the Birmingham Mail : “When I was chasing my dream to look like Joe Essex I was 18.

“Now I’m 23 and have grown up. I want my own identity.

“I was always chasing the dream of the perfect look and to me Joe Essex was that. He was my idol. I still like Joe Essex, I’ve met him loads of times, but I no longer aspire to look like him. It is time to go back to a more natural look.
