Nigerian comedian and skit maker Zic Saloma has shared the reason behind his decision to undergo nose surgery, revealing that it stemmed from years of insecurity about his looks.
In a video posted on his Instagram page, the entertainer explained that he had missed out on several opportunities in the entertainment industry due to his appearance, which eventually motivated him to opt for cosmetic surgery.
According to him, the procedure significantly improved his self-esteem and helped him feel more comfortable with his appearance.

He said, “I decided to undergo nose surgery because I wasn’t comfortable with my appearance. I had lost several job opportunities in the past because of how I looked. If you can afford cosmetic surgery, do it. If it will make you feel better, go for it.”
Zic Saloma, who had earlier disclosed that he underwent rhinoplasty in Turkey, revealed that the operation lasted over four hours and included a facelift and eye rejuvenation.
He also mentioned that the procedure cost around $11,000, but he did not personally pay for it as it was part of a collaboration deal with the hospital.
Known for his comic skits and versatile character portrayals, the comedian said the transformation has renewed his confidence and prepared him for fresh opportunities in the entertainment industry.
