Big Brother Naija star Angel Smith has urged women to embrace their natural bodies and cautioned against undergoing plastic surgery without thorough research.
Her tweet read, “Please do your research before getting plastic surgery. You could really just die for nothing. I also encourage women to please love their bodies; y’all are really beautiful, and don’t let anyone, even yourselves, convince you otherwise. But if you must, please do proper research; most of these doctors are quacks.
Please do your research before getting plastic surgery. You could really jus die for nothing .

In her next tweet, Angel acknowledged that many individuals undergoing body alterations might lack sufficient information about the risks and challenges of post-operative recovery.
She highlighted the high death toll associated with Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs), cautioning against the perception that such surgeries are risk-free.
“People will get their bodies done and not show how hellish it was during recovery, and the death toll for BBLs is really high; people go into it like it’s nothing,” she continued.
Like, people will get their bodies done and not show how hellish it was during recovery and the death toll for bbls is really high, people go into it like it’s nothing 😣

In recent years, Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs) have gained immense popularity worldwide, with women pursuing the coveted ‘coke bottle body’ or hourglass shape.
Nigerian celebrities are not exempt, with many openly admitting to undergoing alterations.
Despite the surgery’s popularity, there is often a disregard for the fact that BBL is considered the most dangerous form of plastic surgery, as affirmed by numerous medical professionals.
This highlights the need for awareness about the associated risks and the importance of making informed decisions when considering such procedures.
