Claudia Artiles took to the beach in a black bikini with all the confidence in the world, almost two months after her surgery. The Cuban influencer based in Miami featured in a photoshoot and video session in the sea this Sunday that left her followers speechless —and the photographer (Ultrack) with soaked pants.
In a TikTok video that has already garnered over 71,500 views, Claudia appeared radiant with a wide-brimmed hat, a small handbag, and a beach dress before reaching the shore, and she didn't hide her excitement: "I'm heading to the beach right now to show off this newly operated string."
The session was produced by UltrackTV, the channel of her partner Jorge Batista, and the images show Claudia posing in the sea with the water up to her knees while the content creator crouched around her to capture every angle. She herself celebrated the moment with humor in her Instagram Stories: "Photo and video shoot day. Got my butt wet."
But the detail that sparked the comments was another: in a second Story, Claudia wrote, "Thank you @elevatecosmeticcenter for this peach," expressing her gratitude to the aesthetic center in Miami where she had surgery, which left little to the imagination regarding the results on her figure.
The surgery was performed on April 28, 2026 at Elevate Cosmetic Center and included body reshaping, removal of excess abdominal tissue, and breast surgery. A few days prior, on April 23, she had also undergone an endolift on her double chin.
The path to the operating room was not easy. In October 2025, Claudia had already announced her plans with a phrase that went viral: "This yucca body is going to the operating room soon". However, a pregnancy detected during the preoperative tests delayed everything in November 2025, and a miscarriage in January 2026 postponed the date even further.
The recovery was as public as the decision to undergo surgery. On May 18, she appeared without a corset for the first time, flaunting a waist that left her followers in awe, and on June 3, she showcased her silhouette stating, "I am loving these results of mine."
Sunday's bikini session was the boldest chapter of that process. The comments on Instagram overflowed with praise: "You look absolutely beautiful," "What a gorgeous body," "All the pain has its reward, and it shows with that amazing figure you've got." Some followers directly asked if she had also enhanced her glutes, referring to the gratitude emoji of a peach.
Criticism was not absent, but her fans responded with equal intensity: "For those who criticize, she managed and still looks beautiful; the rest can deal with it."
