Would You Undergo Surgery For The Perfect Body?

Woman getting prepped for plastic surgery

With the fashion world bombarding us with images of the “perfect” hourglass body, (while conveniently failing to mention how much editing some of those images have undergone), it is kind of hard to flaunt a figure that doesn’t fit into that mould. I will be honest, I personally struggle to make peace every day with pads of fat that appear in all the wrong places. #Sigh. Why can’t I store fat in my butt? Anyway, the journey to complete self-acceptance is still very much a process.


A while back, news flooded the cyberspace about surgeries gone wrong. There were gory graphic videos and information about a dreaded “doctor” who gave you a dream body at too high a price. The news led to an interesting if not controversial conversation about plastic surgery and its risks.

My opinion on plastic surgery has always been as long as it is your body, do what agrees with you. This belief was strengthened when one of my mentors came out to say she had work done, only when she told her story, it wasn’t all fluff and rainbows.


There was intense pain post-recovery even after carrying it out in a top-notch facility. Another fact is that you have to maintain that dream body so, back to workouts after seeing the results else all the work done during surgery goes down the drain.

The whole experience I read showed it is a process not to be taken lightly. It requires enough funds, experienced medical personnel and thorough research on the procedure that is being carried out on your body. You have to truly inform yourself before taking the step and to be really sure you’re doing it primarily for you.


From the debate, however, it seemed that the main issue was about people’s desire to ‘cut corners,’ looking for whatever works instead of doing the work of eating well and exercising.

Regardless of what side you are on, I think what matters is that intentional practise of self-love. No surgery can give you confidence. That is entirely up to you.

Still, tell us what you think about body-enhancing plastic surgeries. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

"My 10-year-old self always imagined friendships i "My 10-year-old self always imagined friendships in my 20s being this never-ending sleep over and back-to-back vacations with my uber cool friends. Help me laugh. Well, turns out making or keeping friends isn’t always that easy. I am gradually more aware that to keep a friend, you have to try to be there. I am 100% guilty of not being the best friend sometimes and I am always trying to work on it. I shared a few pointers on how to achieve this." @ellapinkette Link in bio

Mr. O was emotionally abusing me, yet I couldn’t leave him, I thought I couldn’t live without him. And that, is a classic example of a toxic relationship. Anyone can be a victim of toxic relationships because it isn’t limited to romantic relationships only. It can also be with friends & family members. The signs of toxic relationships are broad, but it always involves certain things." Lizzy Temisan

#Repost @milly_aku So, sometime in February 2008, #Repost @milly_aku So, sometime in February 2008, Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi sought for a replacement of her international passport and was told by the immigration officials in Port Harcourt that she needed a written permission from her husband first.
What this means is that before a Nigerian married woman can be issued her international passport, she needs to get a letter of consent from her husband.
Apparently irked by this administrative policy that tramples on her right, Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi headed straight to court and sued the Nigerian Immigration services (NIS).
NIS justified the requirement by arguing that:
"Married women are classified alongside with minors by the government as persons who require consent from the head of the family".
NIS further argued that the requirement for consent of the husband was put in place to "perpetuate the authority of the man over his wife, no matter the status she had attained in the society".
They also stated that the requirement was set to
"avoid unnecessary breakdown of the marriage institution in the country."
SMH
Anyway, Justice G.K. Olotu, the presiding judge of the Federal High court gave a judgment that has remained a source of exhilaration to every Nigerian woman.
The court threw out as unconstitutional the entrenched age-old oddity that required married women to obtain their husband's consent before acquiring or renewing their international passports.
In her verdict, Justice G.K. Olotu reportedly said,
“This kind of policy has no place in 21st century Nigeria.”
On June 1st 2009, NIS lost the case made against them by Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi, a woman who decided to speak up for herself and other women in Nigeria.
This is a gentle reminder to all girls and women, that we are the most important advocates for ourselves.
