‘Not sagging anymore': Simz Ngema opens up about postpartum body and mommy makeover
Simphiwe 'Simz' Ngema underwent a 'mommy makeover'. The mom of two explained that she wanted to address post-pregnancy body changes. She joins other South African stars exploring plastic surgery, including Khanyi Mbau with blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and Shamiso Mosaka, who opted for a Brazilian Butt Lift. South African actor Simphiwe 'Simz' Ngema is the latest local star to undergo plastic surgery in Turkey. This week, the mom of two shared her journey to the popular plastic surgery destination with her millions of followers. She explained on Instagram that she opted for a mommy makeover - a combination of cosmetic surgical procedures designed to address the physical changes women experience after pregnancy and childbirth. While Ngema revealed that she has gone for a 'more natural look', standard mommy makeovers often include breast augmentation or lift, a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and liposuction. Opening up about what she had done, she shared, 'I wanted to fix what was ruined by pregnancy. I look like what I used to before having babies. Some people prefer to do more. My boobs are still the same size, they are just not sagging anymore, and my tummy is back to what it looked like before I had my children'. Ngema, who shares two boys, Tiyani, three, and Kabo, 7 months, with Tino Chinyani, also posted photos of her before and after. Ngema is one of many local stars who have gone under the knife recently. Last year, socialite and actor Khanyi Mbau shocked fans after declaring that she had ' bought a new face '. The Young, Famous & African star opted for a blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, which rejuvenates the eyelids by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle. In March this year, TV presenter Shamiso Mosaka also let us in on her journey to get a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) to achieve a bigger and rounder derriere. Reality TV star Jojo Robinson also went under the knife and opened up about her decision to swap out her fillers for a more permanent neck and facelift. Robinson explained her choice: 'I've been doing filler for so many years that I just needed a more permanent solution... There's a stigma around facelifts like it's only for older women, and that's not the case anymore'. In 2022, she had liposuction to sculpt her stomach.
