asianrhinoplasty It was my own journey...In finding self- love. I grew up being told I was ugly, fat, and that I was a geek/nerd. I was constantly ridiculed and bullied as a child through my teens in school. It got so bad that my parents constantly had parent-teacher conferences. The bullying followed me from LA to moving up north. It never stopped and the trauma started there...
In 2020, like many people, I felt burnt out and gave up. I was the most sad and depressed I have ever been. The last photo is a real photo I submitted to Dr. Yoo for my initial consultation. I was ready for a change. Surgery wasn't the answer to all my concerns, but it was the spark that was a pivotal moment for change. The second to last photo is a before photo from 2018, with caked-on makeup and heavy contour.
I worked hard to lose weight and improve my overall physical and mental health. I figured out what gave me peace and balance. I weeded out the negative things that no longer served me. I did all of this while I was recovering from surgery.
I can finally say that I love myself more now. I am happier, more confident in my own skin, and most importantly, I am more gentle with myself.🦋
