Efia Odo has weighed in on the ongoing discourse surrounding women and body enhancement, asserting that such procedures do little to dispel underlying insecurities.
Taking to X, the Ghanaian socialite urged women to seek internal affirmation through Christ rather than resorting to physical alterations in pursuit of self-worth.
“Plastic surgery doesn’t fix insecurities. You must be self-validated within. Nothing outside of you can save you apart from being in Christ, because that’s your true self. Christ is not a religion; it’s one’s true self,” she wrote.

“I feel that it is a mental thing. It is a lack of confidence,” she stated.
Yvonne went on to issue a cautionary note to young girls, highlighting the potential dangers of embarking on the path of bodily modifications.
“I do not expect any of you to do that, because the minute you do that, it never stops. The minute you alter any part of your body, you would want to alter another part. You would want a fuller lip. You would want a bigger ear. You would always want to change something about you,” she stated.
