From Losing 150 Pounds to Rewriting Her Image: Ten Surgeries, One Journey
After dropping 150 pounds via gastric sleeve, a Glasgow woman confronted persistent loose skin and body dysmorphia. She financed and underwent ten cosmetic surgeries—five in Istanbul in 2021 (360-degree tummy tuck, breast lift/implants, liposuction, lip lift) and five more on her face in 2025 (midface lift, rhinoplasty, canthoplasty, brow lift, fat graft)—spending about $29,000. She now reports improved self‑perception and urges careful, well‑considered decisions rather than acting on impulse or others’ expectations, though online attention remains challenging.
