The reality television star disclosed that she underwent a 360 liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift, sharing a video of her first post-surgery massage with fans on social media.
Speaking candidly, Phyna expressed satisfaction with the outcome and dismissed criticism surrounding her decision.

She explained that public attention during gym sessions made it difficult to focus on her body goals.
The media personality described her first massage session as revealing, adding that she now understands why many recipients speak highly of the process.
She maintained that she has no regrets about undergoing the procedure.
The development follows an earlier interview on Naija 102 FM, where Phyna admitted to minor body adjustments while keeping options open for future procedures.
Her decision reflects a growing trend among reality television figures embracing cosmetic enhancement.
In recent months, fellow Big Brother Naija winner Ilebaye Odiniya underwent a facelift, citing a desire for a refreshed and youthful appearance.
Similarly, content creator Ife Luv documented her BBL journey, while Nollywood actress Uche Ogbodo previously revealed her tummy tuck procedure.
Other personalities have also shared their experiences. Reality star Nina Ivy underwent breast reduction surgery in 2024, while former housemate Bambam opened up about liposuction, offering a rare and honest account of the process.
