 Influencer Who Spent $17,000  to Remove 6 Ribs Plans to Turn Bones Into Crown

One beauty fanatic has gone to extremes in a bid to obtain a tiny waist by having six of her ribs removed.

Emily James decided that her waist wasn't as small as she would like, so decided to undergo the invasive cosmetic procedure to remove part of her skeleton. 

The 27-year-old forked out a staggering $17,000 (£13,568) for the treatment, and wildly claimed it's no different to getting a BBL. 

The warped operation aims to create a slimmer figure with a more defined waist, but surgeons are extremely reluctant to perform these proceduresdue to the risks and complications.

Emily, from Kansas City, Missouri also underwent a breast augmentation at the same time as the rib removal and has been sharing her wild cosmetic surgery journey online - to mixed reviews. She gruesomely explained how after her procedure, she was allowed to keep her rib bones and now plans to make them into a crown.

"I plan on having someone make a crown out of them. They let me keep the ribs and I was initially going to gift them to my best friend," Emily explained. But people have joked about everything from her cannibalising herself to making adult toys out of the rib bones.

While she was recovering, Emily was required to wear a corset 24/7 to help with the swelling, but isn't in too much pain - and gave credit to her "attentive" team of doctors and nurses. She added: "Getting my ribs removed doesn't change the fact that I'm a kind loving trans girl. I know some of your moms walk around with BBLS how is this any different. It is my money my body and I'm going to do what I want with it." 

Three months after the surgery James shared a social media video admitting that she wasn’t “100% sure” that the procedure was worth it.

She admitted that the healing process was painful and that she had experienced complications.

She further detailed in a separate video soon after her operation: "I got my ribs removed yesterday, for cosmetic purposes. They let me keep them. I plan on making them into a crown."

However she revealed she's had comments from people to make them into a "chew toy" or "boil them down into a broth". she added. “Personally, I think my meat would taste delicious” but revealed she would not be "partaking in cannibalism".

Despite her mixed reviews, James has no problem firing back at commenters who criticize her decision to have the surgery.

“Getting my ribs removed doesn’t change the fact that I’m a kind loving trans girl,” she said. “It is my money, my body and I’m going to do what I want with it.”

“I know some of your moms walk around with [Brazilian butt lifts], how is this any different?”

And, when one rude comment asked if the surgery meant she was able to “suck your own rod,” she replied simply.

“So what if I can?”
