Woman has five botched boob jobs at Turkish clinic – so WHY did she keep going back?
A WOMAN who had five botched boob jobs at Turkish clinic claims she was left "deformed" after spending almost £18,000.
Jayla Cevik, 21, opted to have plastic surgery in Istanbul, Turkey, after seeing celebrities and influencers promote the clinic on Instagram.
She booked in for her first operation - a breast reduction, lift and implants - in 2018, which cost £5,600.
But unbeknownst to the retail manager, from Enfield, North London, this would be the first of five visits.
Jayla said: “I have always wanted a boob job and went to a few consultations in the UK but then I kept seeing celebrities and influencers promote this one in Turkey.
“I read reviews online which were all great and the clinic is meant to be one of the top 20 in Europe – I thought it must be good.

“The before and after photos were amazing so I decided to go there – I wanted perfect boobs but now I have the complete opposite.
“This generation is all about surgery and looking good – I am always trying to keep up with the times by getting fillers and Botox."
Her natural bra size was a 36DDD, but after losing a lot of weight she felt they looked saggy so booked in for an uplift, reduction with D-cup implants.
She said: “I didn’t have a consultation, as the surgeon seemed to be in a rush – he asked me to take my top off and began drawing on me.
"I said ‘please make sure they are in proportion’ with my body.
“I was upset and disheartened when I woke up, they were too big for my size six frame.
“I was horrified, they were bruised and bleeding, but I was told ‘it is fine’.”

Six weeks after her first surgery, she noticed a hole had formed in her right breast and they turned an "odd shape".
Medics in the UK discovered a capsular contraction and she returned to Turkey in September 2018 for a revision.
The operation cost another £2,500 - but she says she woke up to one breast bigger than the other.
Jayla said: “I looked like a monster, my right breast was a DD cup and the other a B – I was hysterical.
“I screamed the place down as I couldn’t believe what they had done to me.
“I still have nightmares to this day.

"I was horrified and demanded a revision which I had two days later for another £2,500.
“It may seem silly that I gave the surgeons another chance to fix my boobs, but I was desperate to achieve the perfect breasts I had hoped and paid for.”
Sadly, Jayla woke up from the third surgery to find her nipples were "out of place".
Four months later, she claims her right implant burst causing the stitches to become undone and a mixture of "puss and silicone" began leaking from her breast.
She says she flew to Turkey in January 2019 for new implants costing £550.
But says she was "disheartened and angry" to see the nipples were not aligned.

Jayla claims the clinic agreed to revise her breasts for the fifth and final time for free in November 2019.
In total, she has spent over £17,000 in a bid to correct her surgeries abroad but despite her last surgery being just two months ago, Jayla is still unhappy.
She said: “Everything I have been through began taking its toll on my mental health and I have started taking anti-depressants.
“My confidence has hit rock bottom – I felt a sense of relief when the clinic contacted me out of the blue for a picture of my breasts and offered to ‘fix them’.
“But they are still deformed, I regret going abroad as the clinic clearly have no sense of pride in their work.
“I am desperate for them to look good like I had originally planned but surgeons in the UK – do not want to damage their reputation by touching mine.

“My scars are horrendous - my nipples are out of place and they look disproportionate.
“I am giving my breasts a break for a while but I will seek help in the future as I still want to look my very best.”
The clinic where Jayla had her plastic surgery is yet to respond to a request for comment.
