Uche Ogbodo Calls for Prayers as She Undergoes Cosmetic Surgery
Nollywood actress Uche Ogbodo has once again become a trending topic after revealing that she is undergoing a Lipo 360 cosmetic surgery, calling on her fans and well-wishers to pray for her success and safety during the procedure. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
The actress made the announcement on her social media pages, expressing strong faith and confidence in her medical team. In a short, emotional message, she wrote:
“It’s happening today, my Lipo 360 surgery. Please say a lil prayer for me. I’m not scared! I trust my doctors. It will end in praise! Amen.”
Accompanying the message was a video of Ogbodo dancing joyfully in her hospital outfit moments before the surgery began — a gesture that left many fans both inspired and concerned.
What is Lipo 360?
Lipo 360 is a popular cosmetic procedure that targets fat removal around the abdomen, waist, and back to give the body a more contoured shape. The actress did not disclose specific reasons for undergoing the surgery this time, but her confidence and transparency have sparked conversation across social media.
Not Her First Cosmetic Surgery
This is not Uche Ogbodo’s first time going under the knife. Earlier this year, she revealed that she had undergone liposuction to enhance her body shape — a decision that stirred mixed reactions among her fans.
Speaking with The Punch at the time, the mother of two admitted that the procedure had helped her mental health and self-esteem after marriage and childbirth.
“I did it for myself, for my confidence, for my happiness. After giving birth, I struggled with my body and my mental health. This was a personal decision to feel good again,” she said.
Mixed Reactions from Fans
While some fans have shown support and sent prayers, others have expressed worry about the growing trend of cosmetic surgery among Nigerian celebrities.
Some critics warned against the health risks, while others applauded her honesty and courage to be open about her body transformation journey.
Public Conversation Around Celebrity Cosmetic Surgery
Uche Ogbodo’s openness adds to the ongoing conversation about body image, mental health, and beauty standards in Nollywood. Many believe her transparency helps to normalize discussions about personal choices and self-esteem among women, while others argue it could influence younger fans to consider surgery too easily.
For now, fans continue to send prayers and positive wishes, hoping — as Ogbodo herself said — that “it will end in praise.”
