Katie Price has been pictured covered in bandages as she’s seen for the first time since her latest cosmetic surgery.

The former glamour model, 46, decided to jet to Istanbul for yet another facelift less than a year on from splashing out £10,000 on a similar procedure.

The mum-of-five, who has reportedly undergone a staggering 17 boob jobs and six facelifts among other body modifications, told her followers last week was she and her boyfriend JJ Slater her headed off to Turkey so she could get more work done on her face.

In her latest appearance, Katie was photographed with her face covered in bandages. Katie was spotted revealing the results of a heavily bandaged nose job correcting some bone breakage in the nose and ears and on the side of the head.

There’s no stopping the former glamour model as she revealed more surgery is needed on her ears, with the idea of pinning them back described in her own words as “they stuck out a bit” and also wanting some ‘Fox Eyes’ with the help of some local anaesthetic.

In her latest appearance, Katie wore a beige lounge set amid her recovery from her latest cosmetic surgery operations. The star has clearly had work done to her nose, as well as her ears.

Opening up about the operation, the mum-of-five shared: “From my last surgery, there are just a few little bits that I want tweaking. Well, they need tweaking. So here I am getting ready. That’s the worst bit for me, the needle. The needle’s done so now I can relax.”

Katie didn’t shy away from showing the gritty side of surgery, posting a selfie from her hospital bed looking pretty worse for wear, her face swaddled in bandages and eyes barely open.

With boyfriend JJ by her side during her recovery, Katie hasn’t spilled the beans on the exact ‘tweakments’ she’s had this time around, but word on the street is she’s keen to sort out her ‘pixie ears’.

A source spilled to Closer Magazine: “Katie is heading to Turkey [this month] for her first New Year’s procedure: fixing her pixie ears. She thinks they need correcting after her recent facelift. She’s having her ears removed, then re-stitched in place and pinned back so that they don’t stick out.”

Insiders have expressed concern over Katie’s frequent cosmetic surgeries, with one source revealing: “Friends think Katie has gone too far. They feel like she’s obsessed and loves the attention and the money from the pictures that the surgery brings in.”

Katie herself hasn’t shied away from discussing her surgery habit, likening it to a retail therapy session.

On the How To Fail With Elizabeth Day podcast, she shared: “People don’t realise when you have surgery and stuff, you only see before and after, you don’t see in between – when you’ve had it, the pain and the cleaning, the stitches out and the bed rests. So I would love to educate people about it. It’s damaging to your body. I’ve had so many anaesthetics. I know I still choose to do it, but I’m older now.”

She even admitted that choosing her next procedure is “like going shopping, for me, which is so bad”. Not deterred by the recovery process, Katie recently showed off her £10,000 facelift, having flown to Turkey for the operation. Despite the weeks spent wrapped in bandages, she remains undaunted about undergoing more surgeries in the future.

Gossip suggests that Katie’s pal, Kerry Katona, might have had a role in her decision-making, with Katie pondering getting a nose job similar to the former Atomic Kitten star. However, it hasn’t been without its fears; Kate previously opened up about her surgery scare in 2021, admitting: “I just thought, ‘This is it, I’m going to die. I was terrified of looking like a freak, like that Bride of Wildenstein or a fake doll.”
