She has already spent a fortune, having done herself more than five dozen different operations.
38 million 600 thousand rubles – this is how much, translated from English currency, was spent on procedures to improve the appearance of 34-year-old Laura Summers. Eight breast augmentation surgeries, three – to shape the Brazilian buttocks “under the Kardashian”, seven rhinoplasty, removal of Bisha’s lumps, fillers in the lips and chin … In total, Laura went under the knife of a plastic surgeon more than 50 times. She herself claims that she became addicted to plastic due to bullying at school.
“I was teased about my appearance. Not just teasing, it was a real psychological pressure. They said that I was flat, scary … In addition to verbal mockery, they also beat me, ”says Laura.
She is not lying about beatings. When the girl was only 13 years old, five classmates attacked her with fists. She was admitted to the hospital with a dislocated jaw and broken ribs. Only after this incident, the parents intervened, took Laura out of school and transferred her to college. And she herself decided that no one would mock her anymore: she simply would not give a reason for this and would look like a Barbie doll.
“Operations – they are delaying, but in a good sense of the word. This is not suitable for everyone, but plastic has definitely improved my life, ”says Laura.
From the age of 15, the girl saved up for breast augmentation surgery. But in the end, her father paid for the services of the surgeon. He offered Laura a choice – to buy a car for her birthday or to make plastic. The girl chose the latter.
“I didn’t regret it at all. It was the breast of my dreams! The reaction of people who saw me after a long break was simply priceless, ”she recalls in a conversation with the Daily Mail.
Along with the new appearance, self-confidence came to Laura. She got a job as a model, starred in several reality shows, and she makes good money on her Instagram, showing the fruits of the work of plastic surgeons there.
However, there are enough trolls there too: in the comments every now and then criticize the girl’s appearance, which has become too artificial. But Laura has already learned to deal with them. She simply sends all the dissatisfied to the ban.
“People change cars every six months, so why don’t I change my body? Yes, I did a lot of operations and never hid it. I am as honest as possible in this matter, ”the girl shrugs.
At the same time, Laura warns her potential followers and encourages them to be very careful when choosing a specialist in appearance correction. After all, her own operations did not always go smoothly. After the first operation on the chest, one implant had to be changed: it suddenly deflated. Then her breasts began to lump – and Laura went on to the next operation.
“I guess I won’t stop. I will definitely have a facelift. Even before I hit 40, I think. I’m not going to just sit and watch my “elegant aging”. I have one life, one body, and I try to do what makes me happy, ”she concludes.
First, it is important for parents to understand whether it is bullying or just a conflict within the class. But if a child is constantly being bullied, he is depressed, he has thoughts of suicide, inflicts injuries or cuts on himself, asks to transfer him to another school, then your help is needed. Help, but not aggression. It is necessary to deal with the cause of the conflict. In most cases, not even the intervention of the parents is enough, but advice to the child: how to change the way of communication, appearance, maybe. Sometimes even the “head-on” option may work. Don’t be afraid to talk to the teacher, to the parents of the abuser. If it doesn’t help, we call the juvenile inspector. At the extreme stage, we transfer the child to another school. But this makes sense only through a psychologist, otherwise a repetition of the situation is possible.
