Admitting Regret, Now Mpok Atiek Has to Undergo Surgery More than 21 Times to Remove Silicone

Kapanlagi.com - Mpok Atiek tells the story of how she could be tempted and addicted to silicone injections in order to look beautiful. Apparently, she has been doing it for decades.

From the confession of a woman named Atiek Riwayati, she revealed that silicone injections on the face became a trend in the 90s. It started with being treated by a friend, and then she became addicted.

"Back in the 90s, it was really trendy. Oh my God, when I saw my friends who used to have average faces suddenly looking like Caucasians, who wouldn't want that? It's not an endorsement, a friend paid for it. Long story short, I wanted to get silicone injections but I didn't have the money, so my friend paid for it. I got addicted after that," said Mpok Atiek in Tendean, South Jakarta, on Thursday (15/7).

1. Admitting Regret

But now she realizes and regrets having done so. Because of the effects of silicone injections, lumps will appear on her face if her body condition is not healthy.

"Really, really regretful, it's called Allah (wanting to be beautiful). Yes, true beauty comes from the heart, if the heart is beautiful, the face is guaranteed to be beautiful," said the 65-year-old woman.

"So when it entered the body's tissues, when she felt a little unwell, the lump would rise again. And when it's as big as a peanut, it's removed again," she continued.

2. More Than 21 Surgeries

Therefore, Mpok Atiek has now undergone silicone removal surgery more than 21 times in order to avoid skin cancer.

"It will never end, (surgery) 21 is not the last. Removing the silicone inside. Astagfirullah, no plastic surgery, just removing the silicone on the face. Because if it's not removed, it can cause cancer," she concluded.
