Chloe Sims has revealed the results of her recent bum lift.

The Only Way Is Essex star underwent the "gruesome" procedure last month. Speaking to Now magazine, Sims recalled the "exact moment" she began "to hate my bum".


Before and after: Sims shows off the results of her butt lift

"I was 18 and I'd just bought a tight satin boob tube dress. But when I tried it on and saw how flat my bum looked I was devastated," she said. "I know it sounds trivial but I've always hated my figure. Even before I was in The Only Way Is Essex I was surrounded by gorgeous girls with hourglass figures. Mine felt unsexy and boyish in comparison.

"I know there are more important things in life, like having good health, but I just couldn't help it. I tried everything possible to overcome my body insecurities. I wore certain clothes to make my bum look bigger and even wore knickers with chicken fillet-type padding."

Describing it as a "flat granny bum", Sims said that she had "seriously considered" getting implants, but instead opted for a "safer and more natural" Brazilian Butt Lift, which saw fat from her stomach and thighs injected back into her bum.

"My bum doesn't feel heavier or wobblier like I thought it would. But it does look lifted and now goes into a noticeable bum shape, which I'm really happy with," she said. "Obviously my belly and legs look slimmer because they took the fat from there.

"The downside is that I felt sore for a few days afterwards and I'm not able to lie on my back for six weeks in order to let the fat on my bum settle. I don't want to lie on it and squash it all round the wrong way – imagine!"

Sims continued: "People sometimes have a go at me for being full-on 'plastic' and they think I've had it all done - but they couldn't be more wrong. I've only had two boob jobs, teeth veneers and then this. I don't think I need to have anything else done now.

"I already know that I'll feel more confident as a single woman with my bum the way it is now – especially when I go on holiday. For the first time in ages I'm actually looking forward to wearing a bikini. Now I'd just like to put a bit of weight back on my thighs because I liked how they were before the fat was removed.

"Hopefully, if I continue to eat the same, I'll get them back – then I'll have thighs and a bum and I'll look more womanly," the 30-year-old added. "It's sexier to have a bit of weight on you, isn't it? It's not sexy to be skinny with no bottom."
