Social media influencer and DJ Cyan Boujee, real name Honour Zuma, is no stranger to the cosmetic surgery chair. At just 23, she's been more open about her surgical tweaks than some people are about their grocery lists.
From Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs) to liposuction, she’s documented it all for her followers. And just when you thought she was done, she recently went under the knife again - this time for a breast lift.
Boujee’s surgical journey started in 2021 with her first BBL and, by May 2024, she was preparing for her third BBL.
Alongside these procedures, she has also had liposuction, a gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey for weight loss (because apparently, that’s the new hotspot for budget-friendly body makeovers).
This significant weight loss led to sagging breasts, which then led her to have a breast lift to complete the look.
“So I’m getting my boobs done in, literally, 30 minutes,” she recently said in her TikTok vlog. She shared that it’s a Valentines gift to herself.
Through it all, she’s been honest about her reasoning. "I want to have a new body, and surgeries are addictive," she admitted.

While the first procedure might start as a confidence boost, it can quickly spiral into an endless cycle of "fixing" things that were never really broken in the first place.
Experts link this to Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), where people obsess over perceived flaws, no matter how minor.
Additionally, studies show that those who seek out cosmetic procedures are up to 15 times more likely to have BDD than the average person.
For some, one procedure is just not enough - it’s a never-ending chase for an unattainable level of “perfection”.
And once the glow-up high fades, there’s a new insecurity waiting to be “fixed”.
And let’s not pretend social media isn’t making things worse.
With filters, Facetune, and AI-generated beauty, real-life faces just can’t compete. This phenomenon is called “Snapchat dysmorphia”, where people want to look like their filtered selves.
And with influencers constantly flaunting snatched waistlines, plumped lips and sculpted features, the pressure to keep up is intense.
