Khanyi Mbau revealed her new look after surgery. She sparked debate because her new face looks different from what people knew it to be before.
Why is Khanyi looking different?
In August 2024, Khanyi Mbau did surgery on her face to look young. She underwent a blepharoplasty surgery, ‘a procedure that reduces bagginess from your lower eyelids and removes excess skin from your upper eyelids.’
After the surgery, her face was swollen, and you couldn’t recognize her. It was a healing process that she shared with her followers on Instagram. A lot of people were calling her an alien. Since then, she has been sharing pictures of her new face on social media and has never appeared in public.
So recently there was a function of launching a Netflix film called Meet the Khumalos; that’s where Khanyi Mbau appeared for the first time in public. Her new face shocked a lot of people. With some thoughts that she looks terrible while others still think she is beautiful.

How does she look now than before?
Khanyi displayed different faces throughout the years after going through surgeries. At first she was a beautiful Black woman. Secondly, she changed her nose to look straight and bleached her skin. Later she decided to undergo surgery to look younger so her skin doesn’t show wrinkles.
We can say she is evolving. It’s like the evolution of Khanyi Mbau. Let’s hear what she had to say about it.
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One’s beauty is not physical but a deep sense of self. Beauty is unspoken truth through the physical. It is one’s choice to express in any way they want. Over the years, my expressions have changed as I matured. I see myself in different ways due to my exposure to different cultures, places, and experiences,” she said. (1)

“Cosmetic surgery is an expression of freedom of self-expression. I am not of this body; it only houses my soul. It’s my character that should define my values, not what I look like. Confidence is not being boxed by the norms.”
“I have a very strong support structure. I am not defined by what I see in the mirror but by what I feel when I close my eyes or lie alone in the dark. That’s what my true self is. I have women gaining confidence through my brave choices, encouraging them to also explore and live out their wildest dreams.
“I do what I love, and it serves me. It waits for me to command what’s next.”
