A MUM has revealed she looks a decade younger after jetting to Turkey for a mummy makeover.

Vicky Goddard, from Middlesbrough, spent almost £20,000 going under the knife in Turkey, and hasn't looked back.

The mum-of-two says that she feels better at 34 than she did at 24 and that her new body has given her a new lease of life after forking out £10,250 on a gastric sleeve and £9k on a 'mummy makeover' in Turkey.

After losing her mum, breaking her foot, giving birth to her youngest daughter, and the pandemic, Vicky piled on the pounds, and at 5ft, she weighed 15st.

She tried every diet imaginable and even turned to weight loss pills, but after deciding enough was enough, she looked into weight loss surgery which saw her lose an impressive 6st.

To complete her transformation, Vicky got a Turkey mummy makeover, which consisted of a tummy tuck, a mons lift, liposuction and a breast uplift. She also had 5lbs of loose skin removed during this surgery.

Vicky said: "I've always struggled with my weight and tried everything imaginable to try and get it off. I was 5ft and weighed 15st, so my BMI was so high.

"Some things I tried for weight loss were dangerous, but if someone told me something would help me lose weight, I would have tried it.

"I was stuck in a rut. A combination of losing my mum to weight-related issues in 2015, breaking my foot, having my second daughter, and the pandemic meant my weight kept increasing.

"It went really downhill after lockdown. I lived in leggings and long t-shirts. I'd see girls in amazing outfits and wished I could've worn them too.

"Friends and family knew I was struggling, but no one had any idea about just how miserable my weight was making me.

"I was uncomfortable in my own skin. I wouldn't go anywhere on my own because my confidence was so low and I felt like people were looking at me.

"I needed to do something drastic to get my life back.

"I started looking into procedures and surgeons and decided on a gastric sleeve, which I had done in Newcastle in July 2021. The procedure cost me £10,250, but it was so worth it."

Although she was nervous about the surgery at first, Vicky was so excited when thinking about her future.

She says that her surgery went perfectly and she recovered quickly.

Vicky added: "I lost 6st after the surgery within six months, and I have been maintaining my weight ever since.

"I was left with loose skin and knew that I wanted to have plastic surgery.

"I went for a mummy makeover in Turkey on May 30, which included a tummy tuck, a mons lift, liposuction, and a breast uplift, which cost me £9,000.

"I was so nervous as I was so far from home, but the eight-hour surgery went well, and I am so excited to see the full results when I am less swollen and healed.

"I feel amazing now and like I fit into my skin. My inside and outside now match. I smile every time I catch myself in the mirror, whereas before I hated looking at myself.

"I am so excited to go clothes shopping and buy a whole new wardrobe to show off my new body without having to be worried about how things are going to fit.

"My life is so much better now at 34 than when I was 24. I feel ten years younger, healthier and more ambitious.

"I have a new lease of life."
