But again, the results were shoddy and Christina noticed her nipples were wonky and completely different sizes.
“I also had a lump of fat hanging down the side of one of my breasts,” she says.
“And the scarring from my tummy tuck was higher than my bikini line, which they promised wouldn’t happen.”
She flew back to Turkey to see the surgeon for a third time in 2023, who said the size difference in her nipples was due to thicker scarring on one side.
He told her that her tummy tuck scar was unavoidable, as he’d needed to make a higher incision to target excess flesh around her waist.
Christina says he then refused to see her again, leaving her bearing the mental and physical scars of her £12,000 surgery ordeal.
She says: “For anyone considering surgery abroad, do your research. Speak to other women who’ve done similar.
“But they will probably all say the same thing: ‘Don’t do it.’”
