MAI TT

I recently underwent my first liposuction and face peeling treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire session cost me around 50,000 rand (US$2,700), but it was worth every penny.

I finally got to meet the famous doctor from Herwood Medical Centre, whom I had previously only seen on TV working with celebrities like Zodwa and DJ Tira. Meeting him in person was a dream come true. #CosmeticSurgery #NewMe.

PALEMA, UK-BASED SOCIAL INFLUENCER

“I decided to go with the tagged below Uniquezone Instabul as it may be a good idea to help anyone who might be venturing into getting some work done,” Pamela wrote on her Instagram.

“I had my breast augmentation almost seven years ago and I am avoiding replacing my implants because I know I will need a lift but my boobs kept growing.”

According to The Sun newspaper of the UK, Brazilian bum lifts have increased in popularity in recent years thanks to curvaceous celebrities like Kim Karadashian.

Medical studies have shown a BBL operation — which cost around £3,500 in Turkey but £10,000 in the UK — carries the highest risk of all cosmetic surgeries with more than one death per 4,000 procedures.

The surgery sees surgeons insert silicone-filled implants and/or inject fat transferred from other parts of the body.

WHAT IS A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?

BBLs are used to make buttocks bigger, more rounded or lifted, it sees fat transferred from other areas of the body, such as the hips or stomach, to give patients a fuller derriere.

Despite the dangers, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) says the op is the fastest-growing type of cosmetic surgery, with its popularity increasing by 20 per cent year-on-year.
