Pretty much, in terms of image. She kind of gave up on trying to have her image align with her actual life by the time her 3rd album came about because there were so many missing links. Her first major album in 2012 was backed by her millionaire father, which is pretty obvious given how the stark contrast between her earlier works' production and music videos.Considering she her previous image of "Lizzy Grant..." I think someone scouted her and thought they could make her into a product and redid her image for her, and Lana just decided to buy into the business plan. I actually kind of doubt her 4ness in every way.
As to her 'front', it stops at her image, IMO. Her music always had a dark, submissive/subservient quality mixed with a languid jazzy phrasing.
But unlike Kate Bush, Bowie, or even Madonna, Lana stays in character so much that I truly don't think there is a any point in typing her.
