From a young age, Mother of 3 Tara was always insecure about her ears. After losing a significant amount of weight, her insecurities grew as her ears became much more noticeable. Tara decided she wanted to do something about her ears and contacted CosMediTour.
Despite the fact that her friends and family told her there was nothing wrong with her ears, the fact that they stuck out stopped her from tying her hair back in a high ponytail and she always thought people were staring at them. After losing 45 kilograms with the help of gastric sleeve surgery, she decided she wanted to fix her ears once and for all.
November last year, the mother-of-three travelled to Thailand, where she had Corrective Ear Surgery, also known as Otoplasty. After doing some research on cosmetic surgery in Australia, and finding out that it could cost between AUD $7,000 and $9,000 for Otoplasty surgery, Tara chose to travel to Thailand and go through CosMediTour. “I saw that I could do it for about $3,000 there with a highly qualified surgeon and hospital,” she said.
Now that Tara has undergone her surgery, here is what she had to say-
“I am delighted with the results! However, it’s hard keeping my three children – aged 8, 6 and 2 – away from my face during recovery. I have to be incredibly careful, but I feel so much better and more confident about myself. A lot of my friends said before that I didn’t need the surgery, but then they saw the before and after shots and agreed how much I’ve changed. I can now tie my hair back when I want to and not be worried that people are staring at my ears. It sounds so little and petty, but it’s made a world of difference. It’s only a couple of millimetres, but it’s changed my life!”
Tara will be returning to Thailand next week, for a ‘Mummy Makeover’ – a Tummy Tuck, Breast Lift and Breast Augmentation. “I’m looking forward to getting the excess skin removed from when I lost a large amount of weight as a result of gastric sleeve surgery. This will complete my transformation I hope!”
