As the saying goes, “Beauty is pain,” and this model isn’t letting it stop her.
Ex-flight attendant Alanna Pow is no stranger to going under the knife — as the 22-year-old will soon spend over $50,000 on several surgeries of the same kind.
Pow went under the knife for the popular BBL, Brazilian butt lift surgery, not once but twice so far — and soon will go for a third.
The recovery was extremely painful because the first two surgeries weren’t done properly, forcing the 22-year-old to lie on her “front for six weeks because I couldn’t sit down.”
“When I had the first one, I was still a flight attendant and I went back to work quickly, so I had to walk up and down the whole flight. During take-off, I sat on my BBL cushion and the pain was excruciating, the model said, according to Jam Press.
“I also had to wear a compression garment for six weeks underneath my uniform.”
Pow flew over 6,400 miles to Turkey last year for her first BBL, which cost her $10,855.99. Then she made the trek back for her second one for the same price — where the surgeon gave her a two-for-one deal and threw in a nose job for free.
The unfortunate news is that Pow has no choice but to undergo yet another butt lift surgery, yes, a third one, to correct the first two botched jobs.
“The first doctor in Turkey took way too much fat from my lower thighs and left them looking wavy. I’ve been insecure about them ever since,” she admitted.
“My legs are the only area he really botched, the rest of my body wasn’t done badly, but I don’t think he did enough lipo overall.”
She learned her lesson this time around — instead of going back once again to Turkey, Pow will see an Australian surgeon. It won’t come cheap, though — this third booty surgery will cost over $26,000.
Pow is a surgery pro at this point and is looking at the glass half full. “I’m so excited for my third BBL. The first two were just learning lessons for me.”
Funny enough, this isn’t the first BBL mishap to happen.
One woman who traveled to the Caribbean to get butt implants was at the gym when she realized hers had fallen out.
“…when I got back from there [the DR], I went to the gym. I was squatting in the gym, and I felt something,” the 29-year-old explained during a sit-down interview with British TV personality Olivia Attwood for her UK show “Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection.”
“My leg went all tingly, and I felt something come out. My implant was hanging.”
