Reality TV star Jojo Robinson has revealed she recently went under the knife again.

The Real Housewives of Durban star said she wanted to get rid of her “thunder thighs” with her recent cosmetic surgery.

“Checked into hospital and ready to check the chubby legs straight out,” she wrote. “PS, I’m also doing this for comfort. Not having any thigh gap means my legs rub constantly together. Also, though, I mean, summer is coming.”

In pursuit of physical perfection, several South African celebrities have taken drastic measures, opting for surgical procedures to enhance their appearance.

Jojo has been candid about her journey. She has undergone 11 surgeries before, including:

  • a facelift;
  • neck lift;
  • four breast augmentations (two of them breast lifts);
  • side and back fat reduction;
  • arm liposuction;
  • a tummy tuck; and
  • three body liposuctions (stomach, back and sides).

This does not include the minor adjustments she’s made.

Taking to Instagram on Monday, Jojo shared photos showcasing her weight-loss transformation, revealing she was once more than 20kg heavier without her many tattoos.

“No-one understood why I needed so many surgeries to remove excess skin. Well, here you go. This was about eight years ago. I was about 20kg+ heavier at my worst. Unfortunately I don’t have pics at my worst weight,” she said.

“This has taken years. These are only the major surgeries. Let me know if you want detailed information of what I did initially to lose the weight (which I did myself). I then had surgeries to assist after that because the gym can only do so much. Now I hate the gym because sweat is gross.”

While she no longer uses Instagram facial filters, she said she wants to go under the knife one more time to maintain her youthful appearance.

“I have decided I need a nose job and liposuction on the legs. My last two surgeries.”
