Operation Thailand’s Mummy Makeover Patient Tells all to the Daily Mail!

May 12, 2017 | News

Jayleen, aged 22 was left with loose and overhanging skin after losing 55 kilos and having her baby girl. After the premiere of Operation Thailand episode 2, which she featured in, Jayleen reveals how her $12,000 ‘Mummy Makeover’ has finally given her the ‘hourglass’ figure she’s always dreamed of!

When Jayleen lost 55 kilograms, she knew exactly what she wanted to do. Ever since the 22 year old, mum of one, from Alice Springs started on her weight loss journey, she had envisaged completing it with cosmetic surgery. “I knew I’d be left with loose skin, but I had always wanted to have my breasts done so I was very open to surgery. By the time I’d lost the weight, I couldn’t wait to have the surgery.”

Jayleen’s mother said that she had put on weight originally because of a hereditary disease called Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome. This meant that her brain sent very slow messages to her nerve endings such as her feet, fingers, knees and wrists – and in reality meant that she wasn’t able to participate in many sports or activities. “People treated me differently when they saw I couldn’t participate, they would say nasty things like “You’re lazy, you’re going to be fat forever. That just made me want to comfort eat, and so I did!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I started walking everywhere and ate healthily. Over two years I lost 55 kilograms, taking me to 60 kilos. I halved my body weight,” she said! As soon as Jayleen hit her target weight, she booked in for a Mummy Makeover procedure. This incorporated a Breast Lift, Breast Augmentation and a Tummy Tuck. The 22 year old wanted to have her procedure in Thailand for the experience and price point. “ I paid $12,000 AUD for my Mummy Makeover, whereas I had been quoted $29,000 in Australia.

Jayleen’s story later featured on Channel Nine’s Operation Thailand program with CosMediTour where she spoke about her amazing experience and incredible results from surgery.
