‘OZEMPIC COST ME SH100K PER MONTH’  MUTHONI NJOBA REVEALS DETAILS OF HER 6 COSMETIC PROCEDURES

Renowned make-up artist Muthoni Njoba has candidly shared her experience with Ozempic and her decision to undergo several cosmetic procedures reclaim her confidence.

In a social media statement, Njoba revealed that she began using Ozempic in July this year, after receiving it from a close friend who sourced it from abroad. “The dose I took was 0.25 mg. I lost weight within the first week. It comes off fast, and it continued all through the five weeks. I lost a total of eight kgs. You can get the original ozempic pen. It’s Sh100,000 per month, that’s four doses.”

She described her experience with Ozempic as positive. “I had to stop taking Ozempic two weeks before my surgery, and I have not gone back to taking it. It’s now been six weeks since I last took an Ozempic shot, and my appetite has never come back. I honestly had the best experience taking it. I never had any nausea or negative symptoms. It improved my health so much that I had positive effects, like improved sleep, which I struggled with insomnia for many years,” Njoba said. 

The make-up artist did not stop there, she underwent several surgical procedures, including liposuction 360 (Sh600,000), a tummy tuck (Sh500,000), liposuction of her upper arms (Sh250,000) and inner thighs (Sh300,000), and a hip deep correction procedure (Sh400,000), where fat was transferred to her hips. Additionally, she underwent a nano fat transfer under her eyelids (Sh200,000) to address the hollowness caused by her rapid weight loss. Spending over Sh2.2 million in total.

Despite fears that come with major surgery, Njoba was comfortable with her decision, “Yes, I was very scared, but I was more determined to follow through the major challenges. The thought of being stuck in a body I did not like in my 40s was what drove me to commit to this transformation,” she said.

Choosing to stay close to home for the procedures, Njoba explained her decision to have the surgeries in Kenya. “I didn’t want to fly out of the country. I wanted to do it at home, close to my family, and more importantly, have access to my doctors anytime I needed them,” she added.
