'It has changed my life': 'Today I am heading off to get my lips done again and it's been just over a year since I started getting fillers in my lips,' she said (pictured left in 2014)

'I love it. I hated my lips beforehand. They were so small and when I smiled - completely disappeared - like no lips at all. Even when I put on lipstick I had nothing to work with.

'It's not something you need to get done or that I felt like I needed to get done I just personally really really love the look of slightly more enhanced lips on myself. 

'It has been something that I will definitely continue to do and I will never not do it.'

All for it: 'I love it. I hated my lips beforehand. They were so small and when I smiled - completely disappeared - like no lips at all,' she said 

Beauty: 'It's not something you need to get done or that I felt like I needed to get done I just personally really really love the look of slightly more enhanced lips on myself,' she said

Ms Anderson, whose lip fillers cost around NZD $800 (AUD $769), decided to vlog her experience to show her fans what it's really like to get them done. 

'I've been twice now and had fillers done - my face and my lips. My lips are getting a little bit smaller again but I'm wanting to plump them up for the festive season,' she said, explaining that the procedure is both non-invasive and painless.

Ms Anderson then took viewers through each step before sharing a comparison photo at the end to highlight the transformation. 

'I know some people do not agree with enhancements… I totally respect that and totally understand that and that is your decision,' she said.

Open minded: 'I know some people do not agree with enhancements… I totally respect that and totally understand that and that is your decision,' she said

'Some people are self conscious about certain things and there is nothing wrong with that. I feel like both sides are no worries. Try to keep those opinions to yourself... nobody is forcing you to put something in your face.'  

In August, Ms Anderson shared a similar video to show her fans what it was like to get facial fillers.  

After dropping from 169 kilograms to 77 kilograms following a Gastric Sleeve surgery and having a number of surgeries to remove her excess skin, Ms Anderson had the fillers to tighten the 'loose skin' on her face.

Amazing effort: The determined Auckland-based woman decided to have Gastric Sleeve surgery in late 2014 and within 12 months had shed a whopping 92 kilograms (202 lbs)

'At the start of this week I went to the amazing team at @caci_nz and had facial fillers,' she wrote on Instagram.

'After losing 92kg I am covered in lose [sic] skin and one place that I don't think many people would even think it would occur is the face.

'My cheeks sagged leaving me with big indent lines around my nose to mouth which is also something that can happen as you age and your skin loses the elasticity.'

Doing it for herself: 'After losing 92kg I am covered in lose [sic] skin and one place that I don't think many people would even think it would occur is the face,' she said

Ms Anderson vlogged her experience on her YouTube channel to share with others what it's really like.  

'It has been three days since I've had it done and I've got to say the recovery was super simple and super easy,' she said at the end of her video. 

'The next morning I went to wipe my face and it was really sore and tender but it wasn't bad at all, could deal with that not a problem.

'I'm so happy with the results I think it looks phenomenal.'

Thrilled: Ms Anderson met with a skin expert at the clinic who explained that they would be injecting fillers into her creases and at the top of her cheek bones 

Working hard: Since posting the update, she has also shared a number of glamorous selfies - the blonde beauty now radiating confidence and a healthy glow 

In May, Ms Anderson shared an 88 week update with her followers on her weight loss mission. 

'I have completely changed my lifestyle, diet and exercise. I am thirty three weeks post opp abdominoplasty, bra line back lift, breast lift & augmentation,' the proud make up artist wrote on Instagram.

'Basically most of my lose skin has been removed apart from that on my upper thighs and bottom.'  

From size 30 to size 12: 'I love that even at the start of my journey at 169kg I was comfortable sharing a photo in my togs!' She said

'The human body is incredible that's for sure': 'How much it continues to change still blows my mind,' she wrote next to a comparison snap of herself wearing underwear

Since first starting her weight loss journey, Ms Anderson has earned over 200,000 followers and regularly shares inspiring words of advice, her workout regime and her diet choices with them. 

Just six days after her surgery Ms Anderson also appeared on Tyra Banks' new daytime TV show, FABLife, to show off her new body, revealing that while she was feeling 'a bit tender' she was thrilled with her new body.    

She also addressed the pressure she felt, working in the beauty industry, to always look perfect - and to conform to society's views about the ideal look.

'I definitely felt that pressure, you're around beauty 24/7 and you're seeing these gorgeous, stick-thin models so it was always something that was in the back of your mind,' she explained.  

Determined: 'I have completely changed my lifestyle, diet and exercise. I am thirty three weeks post opp abdominoplasty, bra line back lift, breast lift & augmentation,' the proud make up artist wrote on Instagram 

Debilitating: 'When I was sports training I would need to wear compression pants under tights to keep it [the excess skin] all in place and stop it from bouncing,' she said

'My body is so amazing': Though she was in a lot of pain and was 'quite miserable' shortly after the procedure, Ms Anderson was very pleased with the results

Ms Anderson's feedback wasn't all positive, however, with some people claiming that she couldn't possibly have lost all the weight because she didn't seem to have any excess skin in her early pictures.

'It was not something I was ashamed or embarrassed of or anything like that,' she told Daily Mail Australia in 2015. 

'But when I was sports training I would need to wear compression pants under sports tights to keep it all in place and stop it from bouncing up and down. It would rub and cause bleeding under the skin and I would get belly button infections, it was just incredibly uncomfortable.' 

'The depth and the level they [the haters] go to - it's mind-blowing. I wouldn't even think to write that to my worst enemy,' she said.

'It was definitely a violation. I worked so hard for this, and you can't take this away from me.'
