Nollywood actress Lolo has highlighted the growing trend of body modifications among men, indicating that it is more prevalent than many people might think.
During a recent episode of her podcast, Say My Piece, she emphasized that while women tend to pursue body enhancements more frequently, men are also engaging in these modifications discreetly.
She stated, “Today we have a very interesting topic that we want to talk about and whether you like it or not, it has become the norm. I know a lot of times we say that women do body enhancements more, but let me shock you, men too are into body modification more.”
Lolo pointed out that although body modifications are not yet a widely discussed topic in Africa, they are starting to gain popularity.
“Men do it a lot but we’re just not focusing on it in Africa just yet, I’m not saying it’s prevalent; I said women do it more. Even if we look at the indices among men, maybe a small 5 percent, but it’s being done now,” she clarified.
Additionally, Lolo noted that cosmetic procedures like Botox are becoming more accepted among men, highlighting specific treatments such as subtle facelifts and tightening of the chin and eye areas.
She continued, “I have seen some men that I’ve subtly done facelifts in Nigeria. Sometimes it’s the chin and around their eye to tighten the face a little. Men even take Botox, Charly Boy has come out to say that he takes Botox. That’s a cosmetic procedure too, to give you a youthful look. In the world outside Africa, men do body modification all the time, they give themselves biceps, lipo, fake abs. Do you know that some men do penis enlargement now?”
