I spent £30k on a BBL to get rid of my pancake bum – now everyone’s saying I was ripped off
WHEN it comes to cosmetic surgery, it appears that you can pretty much get anything nipped and tucked these days.
And one recent plastic surgery trend, which is doing the rounds on social media, is getting a Brazilian Bum Lift, also known as a BBL.
A BBL is a popular cosmetic procedure that involves the transfer of fat to help create more fullness in your backside.
The surgeon will use liposuction to remove fat from other areas of your body, such as your hips, stomach, and thighs, which is then injected into the skin, to create a more rounded, full look.
Hayley Hennessy, a digital creator with 13.3k followers and 133.6k likes on TikTok, took to the video sharing platform to reveal that she spent £30,000 on a BBL, to take her from having a “pancake” bum to a “juicy” derrière.
But her video was met with stunned TikTok users left open-mouthed at the huge price she paid for the procedure.

She uploaded her video with the caption ‘Is it just me or is the sickly thin era on its way back’.
She said: “Not me spending £30k on a BBL so I can be a curvy, peachy girl, only for the Kardashians to be bringing back the 2000’s itty bitty tiny girl era”.
In the video, we see Hayley posing for the camera, as she shakes her bum whilst wearing a grey tracksuit.
The woman revealed that she was influenced by celebrities to get her BBL done, as she explained: “Celebrities set fashion trends. All fashion houses look at what influential people are doing which sets trends”.

A third commented: “Natural is best, just be yourself who cares what the trends are” to which the social media user replied “Lol so should everyone stop getting Botox too? Stop dying their hair? No more fake tans… no more manicures or makeup?”.
However, many people were shocked at the price Hayley paid for her BBL, with many claiming that she was “ripped off”.
One user stated: “You paid 30k. You got ripped off”.
Another questioned: “You paid 30k for that?” to which Hayley confirmed “Yep”.
