South African socialite and reality TV star Khanyi Mbau is known for her luxurious lifestyle, controversial skin bleaching, and her public embrace of cosmetic enhancements. Recently, she made headlines once again, revealing her “new face” following a series of extensive plastic surgeries in Turkey.
Living in Dubai with her boyfriend, Kudzai Mushonga, the 38-year-old Mbau shared the details of her latest transformation on social media this week, showing off her drastically altered appearance. The procedures, which were carried out in September, included a fox eye lift, a lip lift, and an upper blepharoplasty, designed to refresh and rejuvenate her facial features.
In a candid update on Instagram on Friday, November 22, Mbau explained that the goal of her surgeries was to achieve the “filtered and face-tuned” look she often shared online, but this time, it was permanent. “I always used filters and face-tune to achieve this look, now I look this way,” she shared with her followers, adding that the results would continue to improve as her skin healed and tightened further.
Despite enduring a painful recovery process marked by swelling and bruising, Mbau expressed satisfaction with the outcome, describing her new face as “youthful.” She noted that she had effectively “lost a few years off my face.”
Social media has buzzed with reactions to Mbau’s transformation, with some users sharing throwback photos of the reality star from her earlier, unaltered days. In one particularly nostalgic post, a fan unearthed an old image of Mbau alongside fellow TV personality Bonang Matheba, showcasing the striking contrast between her past and present look.
Mbau’s latest cosmetic procedures are just the latest chapter in her ongoing transformation, sparking continued discussion on beauty standards and the lengths some will go to achieve their ideal appearance.
