    Interesting to see a man featured too, it definitely affects women more but men probably under-report. Good for him for raising awareness.

    Aftercare and follow up after ANY surgery is critical part of getting well and back on your feet. Decision to go and get this surgery done abroad had changed this poor young woman's life forever. Terrible story.

    I have a lot of weight to lose. If I'm successful, there will be a lot of excess skin. This used to terrify and revolt me. I am at a place in my life where I am prepared to live with it. Living with excess skin versus risky traumatic surgery? As I said, I'll live with the skin. I reckon I'll learn to love it too.

    The girl is not very bright. Someone, preferably her mother, should have dissuaded her. Turkey gets a lot of bad press regarding these “cheap” surgeries so there’s no excuse for not doing some research beforehand.

      Turkey is totally fine if you DO do the research. Look into your surgeons, make sure they have history, are board certified, talk to people who have had surgery through them, etc.
      There's a lot you can do to minimize the risks, and if it's too cheap/too good, obviously stay away, it's your body.
      Again, turkey is absolutely a fine choice. You can get botched anywhere, I guarantee that.

    Your focus in only turkeys cosmetic Sektor seems a bit prejudice and rassist. Please, then stay in your own country and get it done there. Its not turkeys problem that yoz cant afford a procedure and go for the cheapest option available. Everywhere where ppl try to get the cheapest procedures done theres a risk, how many women died in mexico or brazil while getting cheap bbls?! How many botched surgerys are done in the UK or Germany ? While you only focus on the bad things in turkey, which are Statisticly just minor, you dont see all the positive and successfull procedures. Or you dont want to.

      Surgery in Turkey is the subject of the video. Just because this happens in other countries doesn't make it any less bad. And how are Turkish people a difference "rass?" You sound like an American Trump supporter.

    Vitamin injections! I’ve had bariatric sleeve surgery and have awesome after care. I’m talking bariatric one a day multivitamin and following my protein and fluids goals.
    Vitamin injections have never been discussed or given to any other patient of bariatric surgery that I know of.
    Is this just a UK thing?

      No, they either didn't qualify or didn't want to wait. If you get sick, and I assume you live in Red State America, good luck paying the bills. And good luck having insurance at all when you are too old to work, after RFK Jr. has "gone wild on health care."
