Source talks about post-surgery care and advises potential patients
Speaking to Briefly News journalist Tayananiswa Zvikaramba, a source who has had cosmetic surgery discussed how important post-surgery care. The source emphasised that post-surgery care ensures the patient gets the best results and minimises the risk of complications.
"Post surgery care is very important because there’s a high risk of infection after surgery. The healing process is long and grueling, and infections will definitely prolong it and make it much more painful," the source explained.
The source also explained that while Khanyi's procedure was non-invasive, it poses risks similar to any other cosmetic surgery.
The source also advised anyone considering surgery to conduct thorough research before parting with their hard-earned cash. The source added:
"Blepharoplasty is not as invasive as other surgeries but there are risks involved all the same. So I would advise anyone considering it to read up on it to be aware of what they’re getting themselves into before committing to the process."
