For years, Tracy Kiss felt uncomfortable about the cosmetic surgeries she had undergone, and she finally had the courage to undo them to get back her natural self. “Now I actually look like my children,” the nutrition influencer told NeedToKnow.com. She spent over $160,000 to reverse the procedures, joining the others who have been “downsizing” and ditching overdone makeovers for a more natural look.
Speaking with the outlet, Kiss, 36, said, “What started off as a very innocent ‘treat’ to have pretty nails and a nice tan for summer in my teens ultimately turned me into an unrecognizable Barbie doll in time.”

The millennial mama influencer, who boasts a whopping 1.2 million followers on Instagram, had been going under the knife most of her adult life. She had had underwent at least five boob jobs, an upper eyelid lift, a rhinoplasty, a chin liposuction, a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), teeth straightening, labiaplasty, and a handful more, as reported by New York Post.
That’s not all; she also occasionally opted for Botox, facial fillers, and semi-permanent fixes like eyelash extensions. However, while Kiss was hoping to alter her imperfections, the surgeries instead got her bad attention from both men and women online. She recalled getting dirty looks from haters whenever she was outside. Even some women were scared that she was “after their husbands” because of her breasts, which they described as “super-sized doughnuts.”
“People judged me negatively and assumed that I would be self-obsessed and uneducated. They believed I was unhappy and hated myself, so [I] had to turn to surgery and aesthetics to feel ‘beautiful,’” the influencer said. She explained that she actually unwittingly got caught in the web of surgical alterations.
“It’s all too easy to spend [$80] per week on lashes and nails, which then becomes hundreds per month when you factor in hair appointments, tanning, Botox, and fillers top-ups,” the social media siren noted.
“Before you know it, you suddenly have huge thick eyebrows, big lips, and a motionless face with the smallest of imperfections becoming blindingly obvious.”
However, it didn’t take her long to realize that “the woman staring back at me in the mirror isn’t the person that I know myself to be.”
Last August, she finally flew to Turkey to undergo a breast reduction, which cost her $60,000. She reversed her 32H back to 32C. She says she had to “reach that point of fake-ness in order to bounce back, wake up, and return to my natural self.”

The influencer mama confessed, “I realized my choices over my appearance were only taking me further away from my authenticity and personality. So removing it feels like returning home.”
Not only did she dissolve the filler on various parts on her face including chin, nose, and lips, she only cancelled her Botox sessions, nail and hair appointments. Despite the heavy cost for this de-transition, she is finally happy.
“Now I actually look like my own children. I receive so many compliments for looking much younger without makeup and ‘not trying too hard,” Kiss told NeedToKnow.com. “I don’t need beauty to feel beautiful. I just have to be myself.”
Kiss traveled to Turkey to get a br-ast reduction.
Kiss is just happy that she is now able to look like her kids.
