Speaking on Instagram live, she told fans that she has decided to undergo surgery to be more confident.
Alessandra explained that during a recent trip to Colombia she met up with a surgeon to discuss getting ‘reshaped and put back together’, and finally deal with her ‘excess skin’.
‘Fourteen years after the fact I’m finally taking care of that,’ she laughed.
‘I wanted to look into reconstructive surgery because of the loose skin… so I reassessed the decision.
‘I began in May and I will continue early next year after we finish wrapping this next season of MAFS.’
She went on to add that her surgery will provide ‘a certain closure to the trauma behind the weight gain’.

Speaking to 9Entertainment, Alessandra said the experience was ‘literally life-changing’, but she was left surprised after some critics appeared to be openly angry about her weight loss journey.
‘I got a lot of people complaining, “Why did you become thin?” And then before it was like, “Why are you fat?”‘ she said.
‘You know you can never please people, and it’s never about pleasing people – but I was very surprised with the amount of people who were like, “Nooooo, why did you do this?” – it was my health, you guys.’
Alessandra went on to say the procedure – which involves surgically altering the stomach and small intestine – was an ‘incredible experience’ for her.
