Anitta's Post-Surgery Health Scare: Infection Forces Her to Cancel Appearances

Brazilian artist Larissa de Macedo Machado, better known as Anitta , has her fans worried after the cancellation of several professional performances, including the Coachella music festival last May.
Last week Anitta was due to give a concert in Brazil , which was cancelled due to "a bacterial infection", which the Brazilian press attributed to her most recent plastic surgery .
However, his management company, BPMCom, recently released a statement denying these rumors, but it did not calm the concerns of his fans.
"The information that Anitta had a failed surgery in the United States is completely false. The singer underwent a cosmetic procedure (as she usually does), without any complications or special needs. Anitta was discharged normally and returned to Brazil within the timeframe stipulated by her medical team. Recently, the singer worked in the studio and also filmed a campaign in São Paulo. The bacterial infection that led to the cancellation of the show in Campina Grande is in no way related to surgical complications. The condition was identified, is already being treated, and is gradually improving."
The Brazilian star's last appearance was on the Today Show in New York City on March 7. However, just days later, the cancellation of her highly anticipated performance at São João Stadium in Campina Grande was announced. Initially, it was only stated that it was "for medical reasons." However, amid the commotion that the news sparked, her team revealed that she was improving, but that her doctor had ordered her to rest.

However, fans of the queen of funk continue to wonder how Anitta is really doing. The artist has spoken openly about her cosmetic procedures and confessed that she has had more than two dozen.
In an interview in Brazil in early May, Anitta revealed that her next procedure would be on her face to remove a bothersome vein. She also expressed interest in frontoplasty, a facial cosmetic surgery that lifts the forehead muscles and reduces the need for Botox.

The star has shared in other interviews how, once she had the resources, she began modifying her appearance. With her characteristic spontaneity, she revealed that she designed her own face using Photoshop . She virtually changed her nose and chin, and took the image to a doctor to make the changes in real life.
In addition to rhinoplasty and chin modification, she also underwent a breast reduction and abdominal augmentation many years ago, among other procedures.
