Mariah Carey In The News For Weight Loss Surgery
A source claims that Mariah Carey has undergone weight-loss surgery after the superstar became self-conscious about her curves because of cruel online commenters.
According to a report by Page Six, the diva underwent gastric sleeve surgery last month, performed by a top surgeon in Beverly Hills, Calif., after her weight reportedly blew.
Gastric sleeve procedure involves removing part of the stomach so that the patient feels fuller more quickly. It can be done via a small incision, meaning recovery time is fast and scarring is minimal.
