Bristol Palin<\/strong><\/a> gave an update on how she was faring after her ninth breast reconstruction surgery earlier this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been pretty MIA for a year \u2014 I stopped taking my Adderall Rx and had those two surgeries within the last year \u2014 I gained some weight and it definitely took a toll on my confidence,\u201d Palin, 32, wrote via her Instagram Story after a fan asked why she wasn\u2019t super active on social media<\/a> during a Q&A session on Sunday, September 10. \u201cI honestly didn\u2019t feel like posting anything. *I also just enjoy my privacy much more the older I get.*\u201d<\/p>\n

Palin \u2014 who is the eldest daughter of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 explained her history with the cosmetic procedure and why she\u2019s had to have so many surgeries<\/a> over the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got a breast reduction when I was 19. The doctor in Alaska cut me clear across and it caused a ton of muscle damage, tissue damage, a ton of scar tissue,\u201d she said in a subsequent story. \u201cI think I\u2019ve counted nine surgeries since then. I\u2019ve had implants taken in, taken out, just a ton of stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIt\u2019s no secret that many of Hollywood\u2019s A-listers have breast implants. But what you may not know is that as popular as the cosmetic enhancement is, celebs also aren\u2019t afraid to say goodbye to them for good. Dr. John Paul Tutela, a trusted NY and NJ board-certified plastic surgeon tells Us Weekly that the two [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Bristol \u2014 who shares son Tripp, 14, with former fianc\u00e9 Levi Johnston<\/strong><\/a>, and daughters Sailor, 7, and Atlee, 6, with ex-husband Dakota Meyer<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 admitted that she decided to get another surgery to recorrect her implants because they were \u201ca little lopsided.\u201d While looking back on it, she noted the procedure was \u201cprobably not necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted to get smaller implants so I went in for that and it ended up being a huge surgery and [my doctor] had to go back in January and do a complete revision,\u201d she continued. \u201cBut a lot of cosmetic, breast type surgeries because of that botched breast reduction when I was 19.\u201d<\/p>\n

Back in January, the Teen Mom OG<\/em><\/a> alum revealed that she underwent her ninth breast reconstruction<\/a> surgery to correct her \u201cbotched breast reduction.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve had previous surgeries trying to correct that initial damage of muscle tissue and terrible scaring,\u201d she confessed at the time. \u201cThe whole situation has honestly made me very self-conscious my entire adult life. Praying that this is the last surgery needed.\u201d<\/p>\n
