An Aussie mum who underwent a botched 'mummy makeover' in Thailand has urged others to think twice before going under the knife overseas. 'My first trip was amazing, the surgeon was good - the surgery went well,' Tegan said in a TikTok video recounting her experience. As a result, Tegan returned to Bangkok in January to get the issues fixed - but she claims the surgeon failed to carry out the second, corrective tummy tuck. The day after the surgery, Tegan was surprised to discover she wasn't in much pain, in stark contrast to the 'really painful' recovery from the first tummy tuck. Tegan said she was also looking at undergoing the procedure in Australia, where a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty can cost up to $33,000.
