When Savahnah Pierre got breast implants last year, all her friends kept asking whether she was happy with the procedure and how she liked them — so she decided to show and tell all at once.
Pierre, 28, invited twenty of her closest friends to a themed party: her boob job reveal.
“I thought, why not just have a party to show everybody at the same time,” she told The Post.
Last September, they gathered in her Fort Myers, Florida, home, where she stood before the crowd and dropped her robe to reveal her new assets.
“I’m a party girl. I love to host a party,” Pierre, who works in social media management, said.
“I’m a person who likes to have fun. It was just fun, satirical, just a good time.”
Among the crowd was her surgeon, who she invited so everyone “could see the artist behind the art.” Her friends were celebratory and not at all scandalized.
“Living in Florida, I think people are just open about what they’ve done and looking good and focusing on their appearance,” she explained. “I never thought twice about sharing.”
Pierre got the idea off of TikTok, where young people are throwing reveal parties for their various cosmetic surgeries, including breast augmentations and rhinoplasties. It’s an indication that Gen Z is shirking the shame once attached to plastic surgery.
Sofija Tasevska of Hoboken, threw a nose job party for her twin sister, 28, and her best friend, 27, after the pair went to Turkey to get nose jobs together.
“They requested a cake and I just threw a whole party,” she recalled. “We’re all just a little extra, and we make fun of anything that we can.”
The pair, who still had their bandages on, were surprised to find eight friends gathered around balloons spelling out “GOODBYE NOSE” a cake that said “new nose who dis?”
Tasevska, who works in the beauty industry, had also made chocolate noses with a mold.
According to Tasevska, “everyone was just having a good time” and “no one got sensitive about any of it.” Not even rounds of the modified children’s party classic “Pin the Nose on the Face.”
“I think there’s so much more transparency around plastic surgery, and people are realizing more and more that it’s something that should be talked about rather than hidden,” she said. “People just own up to it now.”
Matthew Alhafez, 27 of Los Angeles, always wanted a nose job because it was seen as a “status symbol” growing up in Syria. Two years ago, he underwent the procedure and opted to throw a party.
“It started from a joke. It’s always a nice thing to celebrate, really anything, any accomplishment, any milestone as stupid as it is,” he said, noting the party was intended to be ironic. His friend brought a cake with “natural beauty” written in icing, which matched his shirt that said the same.
Looking back, Alhafez, an executive assistant, thinks the whole thing symbolizes Gen Z’s radical honesty.
“There used to be a lot of shame,” he said of cosmetic surgery. “I think the party was illustrative of this shift in mindset where I had no shame around it… Gen Z has a sense of humor about things that, more often than not, would have caused shame before.”
