Kenyan socialite Vera Sidika on Wednesday caused a social media storm after a shocking admission that she had opted to remove her cosmetic implants.
In a series of posts to her 2.2M Instagram followers, Vera disclosed that the implants had adverse side effects on her body to a point that they threatened her life.
Terming her new implant-free body as a 'rebirth' the Mombasa businesswoman has now begun a campaign urging women to avoid the procedures.
"This has been the hardest phase in my life, Due to health risks & complications, I had to undergo surgery. It’s Still very unbelievable But I’ve come to terms with it and learned to love myself regardless.
"Ladies, please learn to love yourself & don’t ever let peer pressure rush u into things that will ruin you in the future. I’m lucky to be alive, God loves me so much. Honestly, It’s been pretty hard, I didn’t even celebrate my bday this year, but here we are," Vera said.
She further told her fans that nothing about her had changed as she appreciated their love and support adding that she will share videos of how everything went down.
"To my fans, I am still the same sweetest Vera Sidika and that hasn’t changed. I appreciate you all love & support & pray you will walk through this journey with me.
"I will be posting my surgery journey videos here, for those who have been thinking of getting booty surgery or changing anything on their bodies this might change your mind," she posted
