“Teen Mom 2” star Kailyn Lowry had her plastic surgery filmed for the world to see when she got a Brazilian butt lift and more done by Miami doctor Michael Salzhauer — and her husband encouraged her. Javi Marroquin more than supported his wife's decision to go under the knife, Radar Online wrote in an exclusive report Tuesday. He "pushed" her to do it.

Marroquin, 23, was on board for her mommy makeover. "He told her if this would make her happy, then go for it," the source told Radar. "Javi is the one that pushed her to do it.” Lowry, 24, has adopted a healthy lifestyle, but was unable to get the toned tummy and voluptuous derriere she desired through diet and exercise alone. Dr. Miami, as Salzhauer is known, also performed liposuction on her chin.

The celebrity surgeon works out of his office in Bal Harbour, Florida. He has nearly 70,000 followers on Snapchat, where he streams his graphic surgeries. Lowry’s procedure was the first one filmed for “Super BBL Sunday,” where three teen mothers from MTV's hit reality series got cosmetic surgery.

Not surprisingly, Lowry received flack for getting plastic surgery. She slammed her naysayers on Twitter and said she only cares what her husband thinks about her.

Similarly, “Teen Mom 3” star Briana DeJesus was also criticized. Like Lowry, she underwent a Brazilian butt lift, which Dr. Miami is renowned for. She also exchanged her breast implants for a bigger size and got a labiaplasty, which is also known as vaginal rejuvenation. She, too, responded to her haters, saying people were jealous because the amount of money her mommy makeover cost could put a student through college.

“Teen Mom 2” has already begun to film Season 7. It’s unknown if Lowry’s procedure will be documented for the MTV series. A premiere date has not been revealed either.

Lowry and DeJesus aren’t the only “Teen Moms” to turn to plastic surgery. Check out this list to see which young mothers have turned to cosmetic enhancement.
