Fast-rising Nigerian actress, Ogechukwu Anasor has revealed that she recently underwent cosmetic procedures and she’s loving the results. In a chat with NollyNow , the actress said, “I got my body done and I’m absolutely loving it.”

According to her, the decision was personal. “My body, my money, my choice. It was a personal decision that I made for myself, and I’m happy with it,” she said

“Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but at the end of the day, it’s my life and my decision. Do what works for you, and allow me to do what works for me. And please, let’s be honest, I’m not the problem of Nigeria,” she added.

The actress, who hails from Enugu State and has spent 10 years in the industry, said resilience and self-belief have been key to navigating Nollywood. She revealed that she never allowed directors who tried to “box her in” to limit her growth.

“Acting has actually helped me discover different parts of myself, build confidence, and embrace my individuality. It’s been a journey of growth both professionally and personally,” she said.

Reflecting on her journey, the actress said she’s impressed by how far she’s come, even though life has taught her resilience, patience, and the importance of believing in herself when no one else does. “Every challenge has shaped me into a stronger and wiser woman,” she added.

On social media scrutiny, she said she stays focused on her goals and refuses to let public opinion dictate her decisions. “Social media can be loud, but I’ve learned not to let public opinion dictate my decisions. I listen to constructive feedback, but I stay focused on my goals, my growth, and the kind of career I want to build,” she said. She also said she doesn’t let trolling or negative comments distract her. “Not everyone will understand you, and that’s okay. I focus on the people who genuinely support me and the work I’m doing. Protecting my mental space is very important to me.”

Anasor agreed there’s pressure as a celebrity to always look perfect. “I’ve realized that authenticity is more important than perfection. I love looking good, but I also give myself room to simply be human.”

The actress said she’s also sticking to her resolution this year to prioritize her health, meaningful relationships, and personal growth. “It’s still a work in progress, but I’ve become more conscious about protecting my peace, taking care of my health, and investing my time in people and opportunities that align with my values. I’ve learned that living intentionally is not about perfection, it’s about making better choices consistently.”
