Janhvi Kapoor has finally responded to the bizarre viral rumour claiming she underwent a so-called ‘buffalo-plasty’ procedure to enhance her upper lip. During her appearance on the talk show Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle, Janhvi addressed the speculation head-on, clarifying the truth behind the odd claim that had recently been making rounds on social media.

Janhvi said, "I was one of the young girls who was very impressionable with the onset of social media and seeing everyone being judged to look a certain way. I don’t want to perpetuate in young girls this idea of perfection. I'm a big believer in ‘you do you,’ do whatever makes you happy. I would be very happy to be a completely open book about things."

Janhvi also shed light on how she came across a video that claimed to break down her surgical procedures. "I saw this video the other day, some self-proclaimed doctors said: 'Let's do a review of everything this person has done to their face.' They said something like buffaloplasty. I think I have been very intelligent, conservative, and proper about what I have done. Of course, I had the guidance of my mom, and I'd like to share that. Also, as a cautionary tale, because if a young girl sees a video like this and decides mujhe bhi ye buffalo-plasty karna hai (I also want this procedure) and something goes wrong, that would be the worst thing ever. I think transparency is important."

What is Buffalo-plasty?

The term ‘buffalo-plasty’ refers to a relatively obscure cosmetic procedure designed to address the elongation of the philtrum — the area between the nose and the upper lip. By surgically reducing this distance, the procedure aims to create a more proportionate facial balance and enhance the overall symmetry of the face.

One of its most noticeable effects is the subtle lifting of the upper lip, which results in a naturally fuller and more youthful appearance. Though not widely known or commonly performed, buffalo-plasty has recently drawn attention due to social media discussions surrounding its aesthetic impact and the celebrities allegedly associated with it.
