From Extreme to Natural: Reality Star's $100K Makeunder Journey
SURGERY ADDICT LARISSA LIMA'S SHOCKING MAKEUNDER: FROM OVER-THE-TOP BOOBS TO A NATURAL GLOW
Meet Larissa Lima, the Brazilian bombshell who's been making headlines for her outrageous plastic surgery addiction. With a collection of 13 surgeries under her belt, including 1500cc breast implants, a BBL, liposuction over her entire body, and a nose job, this 39-year-old reality star has finally decided to reverse some of the damage.
In an exclusive interview with The Scholarly Note, Lima revealed that she became hooked on fillers and Botox after seeing herself on TV for the first time. "I just wanted to go bigger because I thought bigger is better, and they never told me no," she confessed. Her addiction was fueled by a medspa owner who would top her up with injectables weekly, regardless of how excessive it got.
But Lima's over-the-top appearance wasn't just attracting the wrong kind of attention – it was also getting her kicked out of college football games! "I love watching football here in the US so I started going to games, but people would look at me with my big boobs and big lips and say, 'What is she doing here?'" she laughed. It wasn't until then that Lima realized she needed to make a change.
Enter Melanie Speed, an aesthetic expert from Flawless Medspas, who helped Lima dissolve years of migrated and excessive filler from her lips, cheeks, jawline, and under-eyes. The painful process required 13 vials of dissolvers, which Lima numbed with laughing gas. "I'm so happy now," she said. "It's so much better."
But Lima's journey to self-discovery doesn't stop there. She's also had her breast implants reduced from a jaw-dropping 1500cc to a more manageable 700cc and plans to eventually have them removed altogether. And while some of her fellow 90 Day Fiance stars, like Darcey and Stacey Silva, might be tempted to follow in her footsteps, Lima warns: "A good provider will tell you no!"
In fact, Lima believes that she can help others avoid the pitfalls of plastic surgery addiction – including her former castmates. "I think Stacey and Darcey are sweethearts, but I think they went too deep in the face," she said. "Not only with fillers, but they did surgeries. And they're beautiful and they're still beautiful... but if I could tell them, I would say, 'You girls need to go and see Melanie. You girls need to look for a 10-years-ago picture. Do you understand that it's not normal? The puffy face.'"
Lima is now on a mission to spread awareness about the dangers of excessive plastic surgery and encourage others to find more natural ways to maintain their beauty. "I'm not perfect, but I feel they are beautiful women who should find a new provider who could change them for the best," she said.
So what's next for this reality TV star? Lima hopes to go back to school to study hospitality, find a long-term career outside of reality television and OnlyFans (where she's been paying her bills since settling in the US), and possibly return to the 90 Day Fiance franchise. "I'd love to film something with other cast members so that fans can see how much my life has changed since I was last on screen," she said.
It's clear that Larissa Lima is on a journey of self-discovery, and we're eager to see what the future holds for this outspoken and inspiring reality star. Will her makeunder be a lesson learned for others in the industry? Only time will tell.
