Season 1 Episode 1 of 3
Cosmetic surgery abroad promises transformation at a bargain, but behind the filters and hashtags, the risks are all too real.

She begins by talking to her cousin Sean, who travelled to Turkey four years ago for gastric sleeve surgery. In Lurgan, County Armagh, Aoife meets online influencer Chloe, who is about to head to Istanbul to have a 'boob job'
