Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- Some women are going to surgical extremes to slip into sky-high stilettos. 

Doctors are noticing more and more women who are getting their toes shortened or collagen added to their heels to wear stilettos.

Some women are even having their pinky toes removed to fit into a smaller shoe size.

Doctors say those surgeries can involve unecessary risks, from adverse reactions to anesthesia to chronic pain.
