Did Zully have breast augmentation? Yes, and she showed it herself

She shared the process step by step: a photo on the pre-operative bed wearing a surgical gown, compression stockings and a cap, followed by the first images after surgery, in a wheelchair and wearing a post-surgical compression garment and surgical bra. In a later video she described having a hard time with pain in her chest area while she still had a surgical drain in place. In the most recent clip she shared, the pain had eased: she was shown having breakfast normally and even joined a viral trend, dancing in a silk robe.

That is all this article relies on. Zully did not name the clinic, the surgeon or any technical detail of the surgery beyond "I had surgery," so we do not guess at them. Where the text below explains breast augmentation and recovery, it describes the procedure in general, not her treatment.

That kind of documentation gives followers who are curious about the procedure a realistic picture of what the days right after surgery can involve, instead of only the finished result. This article does not comment on her appearance or judge her decision; the point is simply that she chose to show the real process rather than hide it.

The operation is performed under general anaesthesia and the surgical drain Zully mentioned in her video is a routine part of recovery for many patients: a thin tube that removes excess fluid from the operated area in the first days and is then removed at a follow-up visit.

• A health screening is required beforehand, including blood tests and, depending on age, a mammogram or breast ultrasound.
• Smoking and blood-thinning medication are usually paused for two weeks before surgery, only under medical supervision.
• Implant size and placement are decided together with the surgeon after examining breast tissue, skin elasticity and the patient's goals.

Most patients return to office work without physical exertion after 7–14 days. Around 3 weeks, post-operative swelling eases and scars start to form; lifting over 3 kg and raising the arms above shoulder level are avoided during this period. By 1 month the swelling has gone down further and the breasts take on a more natural shape and softness. Fitness, swimming, pools and the sea are usually allowed again at 4–6 weeks, once the compression garment comes off, and by 3 months remaining discomfort has typically disappeared and strength training can resume. Patients are followed up over about a year until the final result settles.

To be clear: City Medical Centre has no connection with Zully or her treatment. Her story is simply a recent example of a public figure who documented a breast augmentation openly on social media.
