The mom of three began the process in 2022
Cardi B is giving fans an update on her butt injection removal process.
In a recent Instagram Live, the rapper, 31, who welcomed a daughter earlier in September, announced that she had more of her butt injections removed earlier in the year.
"In January, right after I shot 'Like What,' I went and got surgery. I got some more butt injections removed. Because, you know, it takes rounds to get your butt injections removed. I got some of my butt injections removed. And I also went to fix, like, you know, certain things [with] my fibrosis," said Cardi.
The Grammy winner previously revealed during a December 2022 Instagram Live that she had "95%" of her biopolymers removed from her buttocks that August. Biopolymers are silicone shots that Cardi previously told GQ she got for $800 in a basement in 2014.
In 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a safety communication warning consumers that "injectable silicone used for body contouring is not FDA-approved and can cause serious side effects that may be permanent or may even lead to death."
"Side effects can include ongoing pain and serious injuries, such as scarring, tissue death, and permanent disfigurement; if the silicone migrates beyond the injection site, it could cause an embolism (blockage of a blood vessel), stroke, infections and death. Serious complications may occur right away or could develop weeks, months, or years later," added the federal agency.
Later in the Instagram Live, Cardi also shared how she "automatically" knew she was pregnant again when she "woke up one morning and my mouth tasted like copper."
In addition to their newborn, Cardi and Offset share daughter Kulture Kiari, 6, son Wave Set, 3.
The mom of three has been candid about her postpartum journey on Instagram, giving fans a view of her stair master workouts and new mindset.
"This is my third baby and postpartum is a little different from my first two... I'm not doing heaving lifting, no muscle straining, squatting none of that... just cardio," she previously wrote on X. "Sometimes to avoid postpartum depression you gotta keep your mind busy and for me that's work and staying active..."
The Quran - Chapter Al - Muddaththir: 11 - 16
And leave to me ˹O Prophet˺ the one I created all by Myself,
and granted him abundant wealth,
and children always by his side,
and made life very easy for him.
Yet he is hungry for more.
But no! ˹For˺ he has been truly stubborn with Our revelations.
