ANNA Vakili has opened up about her regrets over a second Brazilian bum lift surgery she had in secret.
The Love Island star and her sister Mandi revealed they flew to Turkey for the operations as they were trying to do it on a budget.
But 31-year-old Anna has confessed she wishes she never had the surgery and recalled horror scenes after going under the knife abroad.
Speaking on her and Mandi's podcast, , she said: "A Brazilian butt lift is a fat transfer where they take fat from other parts of your body and they put it into your bum.
"When we first did it, it was really good. We went to a really good place in London, a reputable surgeon, recovery... good. Minimal scars.
"I don't regret that first one. It made me feel better, it made me feel more confident."

But Anna added: "We went to too far when we did it again."
Mandi agreed, saying: "We ended up like Frankenstien. The second time we went, we wanter a cheaper option so we went abroad. Do your research thoroughly - if it's cheap, it's cheap for a reason."
Going into more detail, Anna continued: "The second time we did it, we went abroad to Turkey and me and Mandi thought we were going to die abroad. It was very scary.
"After our surgery, within a day or two, we were in a hotel room about to faint with blood all over the hotel room.

"It was like a murder scene, we both collapsed in hotel room. Bandaged up, bleeding... it was like a horror movie."
Pharmacist Anna revealed she hoped her fans would learn from her experiences and to really consider all of the possible outcomes before having surgery.
She said: "So many people die. It's one of the most invasive surgical procedures a BBL and it's one of the most complicated and dangerous ones, so don't take the decision lightly.
"Without surgery you have a body that's not full of scars."
