UK-based Nigerian mum and singer, Lami Phillips has some words of advice for women who are considering having plastic surgery. The singer/songwriter shared the advice on her Instagram page where she opined that a lot of women considering body enhancement surgeries do not have adequate information on what it entails and that they also do not know the magnitude of risk involved.
She added that there are some “medically justifiable” reasons for getting plastic surgery but undergoing invasive surgery just for reasons that have to do with vanity isn’t enough.
“Plastic Surgery is surgery. It’s invasive. Ask all the questions, be sure you NEED to do this.
I’m not against it because everyone has a right to their own body but please don’t do “follow follow” without all the facts.
Some people have actual medically justifiable reasons for plastic surgery, some have mental health issues that justify the need for plastic surgery but please don’t let “vanity” be your only reason …
I’ve had surgery (csection) before and it’s not a walk in the park..it’s scary, it’s painful .. takes a while to heal and there is risk involved.
Don’t shoot me… I’m just saying it like I see it.. (trust me .. if there was a non invasive way for me to look like Jlo I will sooooooo be on it!!!! “
