The mother-of-two, who wore a black hoodie, khaki leggings and a pair of white sneakers, covered her bandaged face with a surgical mask when she returned home.
It is not known what procedure she performed in the hospital, but Nadia has said in the past that she “hated” her profile and nose.
She told announcer Geelong in an interview in 2016 that she spent $ 150 every time she went to the barber shop to have her wavy locks take the attention away from her nose.

Just weeks ago, in October, the fashion designer revealed that she is now ‘at peace’ after her five-year marriage ended.
She told the Herald Sun she was using her time at home during the Melbourne lockdown to slow down, focus on her health and fitness and take care of her sons.
“ I think it was a really good time to refocus and almost sit down and be at peace with things and focus on that, ” she said.
Nadia, who runs women’s clothing brand Henne, also revealed that she and Jimmy have set up a co-parenting program for their young boys.
“ They hang out with Jim one night a week, then another day, so they see him for a few days, and on those days it’s kinda handy because obviously I can do all my work, but at other than that, they’ve been with me all the time, ”she says.
