LILIAN NG’ANG’A raises alarm over growing trend of young Kenyan LADIES undergoing surgery to enhance looks - “We Have 20-Year-Olds Who Hate Their Bodies”

Thursday, November 27, 2025 - Former Machakos First Lady Lilian Ng’ang’a has voiced her concern over the rising number of young Kenyan women turning to cosmetic surgery to enhance beauty.

In a post on Instagram on Thursday, November 27^th, 2025, the mother of one reflected on her own youth, noting that in her 20s she and her friends were simply “skinny, young girls just enjoying life.”

“In our 20s, we were skinny, young girls just enjoying life. Idk. What changed?” she asked.

She warned that many young women today dislike their bodies to the point of endangering their health.

“Now we have 20-year-olds who hate their bodies so much to the point of endangering their lives,” she said.

She urged young women to embrace healthier habits such as eating well and exercising, stressing that these remain the safest and most effective ways to stay fit.

“…and yes, to each their own… But nothing tops healthy eating and exercise. It’s also cheaper, even if you have the money to spend,” she added.

Her remarks come amid a growing social media trend where influencers openly admit spending millions on surgeries to alter their appearance.

Lilian concluded by encouraging young women to appreciate their natural bodies and prioritize self-care over dangerous shortcuts.
