'Botched': Tonia wants to turn her 'bologna sausage-sized areolas to pepperonis', can Dr Dubrow help her?
Tonia was happy with the way she looked, but she decided to make herself feel better when she took the decision of getting breast implants. The first time Tonia had surgery, she got implants of 400cc. However, she wanted them to get bigger. To make her dreams reality, Tonia underwent another surgery and this time, she got 800cc.
Once she became 800cc, Tonia started getting the attention she had always desired. People were shocked to see the size of her breasts but Tonia thought that they made her look beautiful. Seeing all the attention she was getting, Tonia thought that she would undergo another breast implant. However, this time, she did not have any number in her mind. Tonia decided to go to the doctor and asked him to give her the biggest implant she could get. The surgery went successful and once she was out, she found out that her breast implants were 2,000cc. While Tonia is happy with her implants, she is not happy with the size of the areola.
Tonia noticed that with every implant her areola was getting bigger. Tonia revealed she wanted to turn her "bologna sausage-sized areolas to pepperonis." She further explained that whenever she looked at her areola, she felt they looked like the saucer one could use to keep a cup. She even joked about meeting a walking stick because of her breasts. Tonia bought a massage chair to make sure she is able to relax after walking around with her 2000cc breasts. Her breasts have also given her the name "tits on a stick." Tonia explained that since she is thin and only her breasts are big, people tend to call her that.
After seeing her areola grow in size for a long time, Tonia decided to come to Dr Paul Nassif and Dr Terry Dubrow with the hope that things could change. Dr Nassif was shocked to see the size of her breasts and thought they would burst at any time. Meanwhile, Dr Dubrow revealed how the risks increasing by increasing the size of breasts. However, Tonia explained that she decided to go bigger because she was turning 50. Once Dr Dubrow checked the size of the areola, he informed Tonia that she would have to remove her implants for a year to let the scar tissue heal. He then added that this would allow the areola to heal as it was trying to cover up the space that her skin could not for the 2000CC implants. Unfortunately, that wasn't an option Tonia was looking forward to. She did not want to let go of her implants and decided to keep them untouched.
