Plastic surgery will NOT make you happy

I’ve had 2 rhinoplasties, lip filler, nose filler and Botox.

My BDD is only getting worse.

I spend 10+ hours looking in the mirror obsessing over my appearance.

I was warned that this would be the case but I did not listen.

I was conventionally unattractive, had a VERY prominent ethnic nose and thought this would help, it does not help. In most cases the obsession gets worse.

My nose is much smaller and more “attractive” but I feel alien. I now do not recognise myself when I look in the mirror.

Body dysmoprhia is an illness of the mind. No amount of cosmetic surgery will change that.

Our perfectionistic brain is wired to find fault.

Plastic surgery will not make you happy, chances are it might even make you feel worse. It did for me.

It doesn’t matter how “ugly” you think you are. Just don’t do it. Trust me.
