TV personality Nonkanyiso Conco, widely known as LaConco, has sparked a wave of reactions after revealing her latest cosmetic transformation. The reality star recently shared images of her post-abdominoplasty look, a procedure commonly known as a tummy tuck, which she described as a self-gift for Valentine’s Day.
“I am a woman who works out at least five times a week. I fought a lot on this one because I have gifted myself a tummy tuck for Valentine’s,” LaConco said. “This is a gift from me to me. Ladies, let’s love ourselves.”
In the Instagram photos, LaConco is seen wearing a figure-hugging, long-sleeve dress that accentuates her new silhouette. The post garnered numerous compliments from fans, though it also sparked debate on X (formerly Twitter). While some praised her transformation, others questioned whether the images were heavily edited or considered the procedure excessive.
This tummy tuck marks LaConco’s second cosmetic surgery. In 2022, she underwent a 360-degree liposuction, a procedure that removes fat from the abdomen, waist, and back in a single session. Ahead of her latest surgery, she explained that removing the excess skin had become a necessary step in her personal journey.
“After my 360 lipo in 2022, I knew during my healing process that removing the excess skin would be a necessary step ‘FOR ME.’ And now, that moment is here,” she shared.
LaConco’s openness about her cosmetic procedures continues to spark conversations about body image, self-care, and the lengths some celebrities go to achieve their desired look.
