HAIR THIS

I jetted to Turkey to get my huge forehead reduced – people say I’m mad for picking a surgeon online but I look snatched

MADY Bajor jetted to Turkey alone last Christmas to get a forehead reduction because she was fed up with her “M-shaped hairline”.

The 21-year-old chose a surgeon through a quick Google search which led her to his Instagram page.

A few months later, she took the 20 hour flight from her home in Texas, US to Istanbul to fix her “very receding” hairline.

Her forehead is now around four inches long.

Mady posted a series of videos on TikTok detailing her trip and the recovery process which have totted up millions of views.

However, some of her viewers were shocked at how easy the model found it to choose a surgeon. 

“I don’t know if I’d just find a doctor and fly,” one said. 

One troll even cruelly compared her results to that of a blue avatar from the sci-fi films. 

But Mady was unphased by opinions and has posted a number of post-surgery updates. 

In one, she assured that she had done a “tonne of research” before jetting across the world. 

Mady added that the surgery had “snatched” her face, with the reduction of her forehead pulling the tails of her eyebrows up. 

“I'm so happy with my results,” she beamed. “And like, honestly, I don't regret them.

“I think if you want to change anything, you need to go do it because it's your life.

“Why would you ever listen to anyone else's opinion on your body, you know?”

Her surgeon was Dr. Cengizhan Ekizceli, who specialises in the modern procedure. 

Mady’s scar is almost totally healed and she feels confident enough to wear her hair up, describing her hairline as “straight”.

“I can finally go under the water and feel sexy when I come out,” she added. “And I feel like that's hot.

“So if you're planning on getting that surgery, girl, go get it.

“Catch flights, not feelings all 2023, period.”

Mady paid £3.3k for the operation but added that the centre she used “changed the price in the new year”.

In the instance that her hair did not grow back over the scar, Dr Cengizhan told Mady that she could go back after a year for a mini hair transplant.
