"I had a BBL, lipo, tummy tuck and boob job in Turkey all at once"

A mum who flew 9,000 miles to Turkey to have four surgeries all at once says it was "worth it" despite being "more painful than giving birth". Brittany Barkway, 26, wanted to have a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), liposuction, tummy tuck and breast lift with implants after feeling "unhappy" with her postpartum body. She decided to fly to Istanbul, Turkey, as the cost for just a BBL in Australia was $30,000 AUD alone. Brittany was also able to find a surgeon who would do all the procedures she wanted at once for just $18,000 AUD - including flights. She flew out to have the 11-hour surgery on April 30, 2024, and said the recovery was "more painful than giving birth". Two months on, Brittany said 60 per cent of the swelling has gone done and she couldn't be happier with the results.
