The controversial changes to Khanyi Mbau’s appearance stem from a series of extensive cosmetic procedures she underwent last year.
Among the most notable surgeries were a fox eye and lip lift, along with an upper blepharoplasty. Other enhancements included breast augmentation, a nose job, liposuction and body sculpting, fillers and Botox, skin lightening, veneers, and surgery to push back her gums. Additionally, Mbau underwent hair implants to complete her transformation.
The reality TV star had previously revealed her intentions for the surgeries, stating that she sought a look resembling the “filtered and face-tuned” appearance often achieved through photo editing. At the time, she expressed excitement about her “youthful” new features and claimed that she had lost several years off her face.

Mixed Reactions over Khanyi Mbau’s New Face
Despite Khanyi Mbau’s optimism about the results of her procedures, her new face has sparked a considerable amount of criticism online. Many netizens took to social media to voice their displeasure, with some arguing that her appearance has taken a turn for the worse. Some questioned whether she had fully healed from her surgery, while others suggested that the cosmetic procedures had aged her rather than rejuvenating her.
Many users have also remarked that her appearance now makes her look unrecognizable, with a few even suggesting that she wasted money on surgeries that didn’t achieve the desired effect. Another recurring comment was that Mbau’s skin tone seemed darker.
