Overview
- Gina‑Lisa Lohfink used her 40th birthday on 23 September to publicly say fame has harmed her life and that she would undo her celebrity if she could.
- She reports ongoing daily pain and visible problems after a 2023 Brazilian Butt Lift, telling outlets that old filler, infections and pus accumulated in her buttocks and that some material migrated into her legs, prompting corrective surgery.
- Lohfink has said the surgeries were driven in part by trauma from a severe sexual assault, a claim she made on the podcast 'tigges trifft' in July and repeated in recent interviews to explain her body changes.
- She is now warning others to avoid cosmetic operations or choose surgeons carefully, saying such procedures can be deadly and urging people to consider long‑term health risks.
- Her candid statements reconnect with a nearly two‑decade reality‑TV career that began on Germany’s Next Topmodel in 2008 and with a 2016 court case that still shapes public views of her, while also feeding broader concerns about high‑risk procedures like Brazilian Butt Lifts and the pressures of influencer culture.
