Woman who spent over €1m to shrink waist to 18 inches says she's 'not done yet'
A woman who admits to spending over a million pounds to get the smallest possible waist, says she is not finished yet, after spending the past two decades cinching her waist down to just 18 inches. Aleira Avendano, who is 33, says she has other plans for her body, adding that as well as managing to get her waist down to a tiny size, she has also had seven boob jobs. The Florida-based yoga instructor says she managed to achieve her tiny waist by wearing a corset, and is determined to beat the current record held by 86-year-old Cathie Yung, whose waist incredibly measures just 15 inches. Aleira's says her controversial methods have caused her internal organs to 'shift and adjust' to new spots within her body, but even with this, she says she is not ready to quit. She admits to finding clothes shopping a challenge as nothing fits properly, adding 'My sizes are unique, and I have naturally wide hips' – 'I have to have clothes custom-made '. Speaking to The Sun Newspaper Aleira says 'It's been a major investment – enhancements, treatments and healthy food, a huge commitment. Honestly, my body should be insured.' As well as spending over €1 million on achieving her tiny waist, Aleira has also spent almost half a million pounds sterling on cosmetic procedures and surgeries, including seven boob jobs, four nose jobs and getting new smile with veneers. She believes all women should have plastic surgery to become 'truly beautiful'. At the start of her journey to minimise her waist, Aleira wore a corset six hours a day, but she has now ramped this up to 23 hours, and admits that wearing a corset for that long every day comes with a host of issues, like breathing difficulties organ compression and muscle atrophy. However, the Venuzuelan-born model hasn't let any of this deter her and has launched her own brand of shapewear which she claims will help people to achieve her 'one of a kind look', and says her shapewear line will change many lives. Speaking about the reaction of the world to her story Aleira says, 'some follow me, some feel nervous, and others admire me or see my body as something crazy'. But she added that men 'can't get enough' of her 'exotic' figure.

I've spent £745,000 to get the world's smallest waist - it's a painful process but I wouldn't change a thing
A woman has claimed to have spent a staggering $1million (£745,323) to help her achieve the world's smallest waist - and said men love her 'exotic figure'. Aleira Avendano, who lives in Miami, Florida, said she undergoes the painful process of wearing a corset for up to 23 hours a day, and only takes it off to shower, to maintain her 18-inch waist. The 33-year-old believes that wearing a tight corset for the past 17 years has helped her achieve her physique. She said that she has spent over $1million to alter her waist, with a further $38,000 on surgical procedures, including seven boob jobs, five nose jobs, bum implants, and new teeth. Aleira's goal is to have the world's smallest waist, a title currently held by Cathie Jung at 15 inches. However, she is already pushing her body to its limit, with her organs 'shifting and adjusting' to different positions in the corset. Despite the difficult process, Aleira, a yoga teacher, said that she is not ready to give up yet. Aleira said, 'I find it challenging when it comes to buying clothes, as nothing fits. My sizes are unique, and I have naturally wide hips.' 'So, I have to have clothes custom-made for me. It's been a major investment - enhancements, treatments, and healthy food. She added that maintaining her body type is a 'huge commitment', adding, 'Honestly, my body should be insured.' Now, she never takes her corset off - except to shower. She added: 'I don't miss my old figure at all. 'People react in different ways, some follow me, some feel nervous, and others admire me or see my body as something crazy. Men can't get enough of my exotic figure. I love it.' She added, 'Thanks to this, I was able to launch my line of corsets and shapewear, so people all over the world can achieve a similar figure with time and discipline. 'This is not just the result of hard work - [it is] often physically painful. It also represents the great success of my new company: Aleira Body Secrets, my shapewear line, will change many lives.' It comes after a woman who claims to have the 'world's biggest lips' revealed what she looked like before undergoing drastic surgery and getting copious amounts of lip filler. Andrea Ivanova from Bulgaria regularly hits the headlines due to her enhanced appearance, which has seen her fork out an estimated £20,000 on lip filler alone after starting her transformation in 2018. The 27-year-old has previously admitted she struggles to find love because of her dramatic look, but it hasn't stopped her from achieving her goal of having the biggest lips and cheeks in the world. Now, she has revealed what she looked like before altering her face via cosmetic enhancements. In her 'before' photos, a youthful Andrea can be seen with regularly proportioned lips. But since undergoing her enhancement journey, she has become scarcely recognisable. Her long list of treatments included chin shaping, enlargement and lengthening, jaw shaping and lip augmentation, as well as cheekbone enhancement - all at once. She's previously spoken about how she likes to stand out from the crowds with her unique look. 'I like exaggerated things like huge lips, a face with many fillers, heavy and eccentric make-up, Andrea said. 'I don't like boring ordinary appearances and I am a fan of huge shapes and eccentric beauties. Natural beauty is boring to me so I decided to change my appearance radically.' The social media influencer has spoken openly about having had six procedures done in a single day as an 'experiment' - even though her usual doctor refused to do it. 'My doctor was afraid to inject more hyaluronic acid into my lips, but I was adamant that I wanted more, and I will not stop,' Andrea said. 'I wanted to do six procedures at once. Until now, I always did these on different areas of the face on different days.' Andrea had previously only ever had a maximum of three needles in her face at the same time. 'But this time, I wanted to experiment with myself to see how many injections and [amounts of filler] would affect my body,' she said. She even had to seek out a doctor in Germany to do the procedures, which went ahead in February last year, as her usual surgeon simply refused. And even though Andrea was excited about the experience, she confessed it had been extremely painful. 'I have pain all over my face right now and my jaw and chin hurt a lot,' she said at the time. 'It's hard for me to smile because of the pain in my cheekbones and there's a pulling sensation over my face.' But Andrea insisted the feeling was normal after treatment because the 'filler hadn't settled into place'. Although she finds eating difficult, Andrea is adamant her lips 'don't hurt'. She added: 'I only feel a slight discomfort, but that's where I have the most amount of filler and where I've had injections the most amount of times. The more filler there is, the less the area hurts.' Despite the pain, Andrea doesn't have any plans to slow down or reduce her voluptuous look. The former philosophy student planned to go to Germany to visit the same surgeon, as her usual doctor is sceptical about going forward with her transformation. But now even the German medical practitioner has revealed their concerns. 'I had no fears about having so many injections at once because I trust my doctor and they are a great professional in cosmetic surgery,' she said. 'But they are afraid I'll get necrosis and have to have the tissue surgically removed from my lips if I carry on.' Necrosis is the death of body tissue, which occurs when not enough blood flows to the site, according to the NHS. This condition can be caused by radiation, chemicals or injury, and in some cases can be fatal. 'There are risks involved, such as inflammation, and raised body temperature, especially with so much at once,' Andrea added. 'I have facial swelling and bruising right now, which is normal due to the many needles, but I think in a few days, I'll recover.' She continued: 'You shouldn't judge people for their looks. It's their taste and no one has the right to be offended because of it. 'I think I'm going to carry on doing multiple injections in one day going forward, as it makes me very happy.'

And despite the health risks, Aleira has encouraged others to try and get a waist like hers. The 45-second trick to get a snatched waist that Love Island star swears by At the start of her waist cinching journey, Aleira wore a corset six hours a day, but she has now ramped this up to 23 hours.

What are the dangers of wearing corsets? Wearing corsets, a fashion practice that dates back centuries, can pose significant medical risks despite their aesthetic appeal. One of the primary concerns is the potential for internal organ damage. Corsets, especially when tightly laced, can compress the ribs and exert pressure on internal organs such as the liver, stomach, and intestines. This compression can lead to displacement and deformation of these organs, potentially causing digestive issues, reduced lung capacity, and impaired circulation. Breathing difficulties are another serious risk associated with corset use. The constriction of the rib cage can limit the expansion of the lungs, leading to shallow breathing and decreased oxygen intake. Over time, this can result in respiratory problems and reduced stamina. In extreme cases, prolonged use of tightly laced corsets can lead to conditions like atelectasis, where parts of the lungs collapse due to inadequate ventilation. Additionally, corsets can affect the musculoskeletal system. The constant pressure and altered posture imposed by a corset can weaken core muscles, leading to muscle atrophy and decreased strength. This can result in long-term back pain and poor posture once the corset is removed. There is also a risk of nerve compression, which can lead to numbness, tingling, and in severe cases, nerve damage. While modern corsets are often designed to be less restrictive than their historical counterparts, the potential health risks remain. It is essential for individuals to be aware of these risks and to use corsets sparingly and with caution. Consulting with medical professionals before incorporating corsets into regular wear can help mitigate some of these risks and ensure that any adverse effects are promptly addressed.
