- *just realized this morning, that it might be because i now have Invisalign that i look a little more swollen again? I'm not sure, but I definitely have felt the muscles in face become a little sore, so it's possible it's just inflammed from that.

We often have a tendency to judge ourselves far more harshly than others judge us. You look great!
I was thinking this same thing.
You've said it so nicely. ❤
I'm very sure her entire face is still healing. So changes should still be expected.
I'm more concerned with Shelby's perfection issues?
At least it's starting to seem like she's having issues with expectations of perfection, or maybe it's just instant gratification?
Maybe I'm wrong.
Struggling is difficult no matter what the root causes are.
Maybe it would be a good idea to find a professional to talk to, and learn how to let go of some of these worries.
I'm not judging you Shelby, really I'm not.
I just don't sugar coat things.
I'm simply seeing patterns, and am concerned from one human to another. ❤
Please, take that a face value. ❤
I agree. She looks good! We all tend to be very critical of ourselves so definitely understand
I think she looks good too ❤
@@gardengatesopen She is a beautiful person inside and out. I think sometimes people don't understand the scrutiny people are under by being on youtube and her channels are huge - I cannot imagine it with that large of a channel. Sometimes people leave such insanely terrible comments Other than that, I agree that we are always our own worst critic. I am the same way. Hope it gets better. I think these things can really take a long time to heal. Sometimes doctors say it will take 6 months and it can take way, way longer. I had a foot surgery (obviously completely different) years ago and it was supposed to heal within a few months and it took well over a year.
I agree with you. You look great Shelby, you are a beautiful woman!
Shelby, you need to practice self love! I know that’s much easier said then done but honestly, your nose has never stood out to me (and I’m sure that’s the case for most people). Changes can always be difficult and that’s okay, you might just need some time to adjust. You look great and you’re out here achieving more than most of your subscribers! We look up to you and find you an inspiration. At the end of the day, it’s your face and you can do whatever you’d like but from the bottom of my heart, I really don’t think you need to worry. You look great after surgery ❤️
And I’m sure that’s the case for most people your´re right @Abigail people where here to watching her videos like the person how she is.
Yea so stop complaining 😒
I had my jaw removed and replaced 3 weeks before you got your surgery done. We’ve been healing at relatively the same pace so I understand where you come from. I haven’t felt 100 back to normal and still feel insecure about my appearance but just know you are not alone! It’s okay to go through the motions and honestly everyone’s experience is different.
*Hugs*
Removed and replaced! Hope you're doing well.
I learned this a few years back. When you're 20 you think everyone is thinking about you. Then at 40 you don't give a dam what others are thinking about you. And at 60 you finally realize that no one has been thinking about you at all because they are to busy thinking about themselves. You look great and just keep telling yourself that. When I was 14 I was in an accident that left a huge scar on my chin and it took a few years to completely forget that I have the scar on my face. Now I never notice it and nobody ever says anything about it. Your new look becomes you and you look great!
Hi large scar friend ^_^ got one on the side of my face from a dog bite when I was 5. I agree it takes time for it to just be the normal then you barely notice.....
love this one
Very true, I tend not to care about what others think
Okay so as someone who has had your jaw surgery in the past, I completely relate to feeling like your face doesn't look "normal". For me it wasn't my nose but my chin, but like you, I didn't have feeling there for ages, and it was just kind of puffy looking. And people would tell me it didn't look that different, but I felt like it looked different and it made me pretty upset. It really did eventually go away, but it took a little over a year for me to feel like I was totally normal again. I think it's just when it's your face and you don't have partial feeling in a body part, you're always kind of aware of it. I don't think your nose looks weird or bad at all, but I completely understand why you're upset, and I don't think it's ridiculous or vain. You have to stare at your face so much for videos; I get why it would bother you. Anyways, I hope you feel better! Everyone in the comments section is rooting for you :)
I second this, it gets better and takes time to heal, its a huge surgery!
I think this is common for many surgeries. I didn't have this surgery but I had abdominal surgery to repair diastatis recti (separated abs) and I was so swollen for nearly a year and even 4 years later the skin/muscles don't have the same sensitivity. Once you start getting your body cut into it's never quite the same.
Can I ask how old you guys were when you got the surgery I’m contemplating but starting to feel concerned because I’m older.
I had jaw surgery about 8 years ago. And it took a long time to really recognize and reconcile my new face vs old. I still am completely numb in my chin. I honestly almost never think about it anymore you really do get used to the numb stiffness. If I were you, feeling the way you feel, and doing the kind of work you do, I’d wait six months and if you still feel the same way about your nose, see a surgeon and get it 100% the way you want it. It is totally worth it, not at all silly, and could have such a big impact on your mental health. Also maybe find a therapist and chat with them about it. It can be so helpful to process. Just my two cents!!
I think they say that it takes over a year for your face to settle after jaw surgery! And I think we have a tendency to pick on ourselves extra hard when we're going through a stressful time, so that probably adds a lot to it!
It may not mean much coming from a stranger but I think your face is SO beautiful.
Swelling will continue to go down for a year after surgery, you are only half way there ❤️
The thumbnail is making me emo already 😰 Edit: I do not want invalidate your feelings, but I truly think you are beautiful Shelby. Beautiful then and beautiful now!
Think about all you've been through the last year: A pandemic and lock down that turned all our lives upside down. You moved to a new neighborhood and house, with new roommates. Had jaw surgery, then bought a house in Palm Springs that needed way more renovations and money than you planned.
I think I would be bawling my eyes out every day if I were in your shoes!
You're strong, smart and pretty Shelby. I'm rooting for you! ♥♥♥
Very Nicely Said.. Crying is very normal when you're at your wits end. Life is filled all sorts of Pain and we blame ourselves so much for it.
That was cool. Yeah she did a lot last year! She’s got this 🙏💖
You are just fine Shelby! You are one of the most inspiring content creators I have ever seen. Keep going!!
I don't want to discredit your feeling about your face. That said, I'm rooting for you, Shelby. What she said!
I’m really sorry that you don’t like how your face has changed. I have a friend that went through jaw surgery and she felt the exact same way. Her nose changed and she had a hard time adjusting as well.
It’s ok to feel like this and to be sad. It’s your face - you have to look at it everyday so what’s most important is that you like it. However you get there is personal to you. People don’t understand that having a constant source of anything, whether that’s pain, regret, etc is so difficult!
I feel for you. Wishing you the best on your healing/adjustment process, Shelby 💕
I agree completely. Well said.
I was born with a cleft palate and had 7 surgeries between 6 months to 20 years old to correct it. I know how it feels to hate your face and cried looking at my nose many times because of swelling. Our face can take YEARS to heal. I can even see a difference from my healing from 22 to 24 years old. Trust the process and don’t compare yourself to others. Healing takes time 🤍
As someone who has also had surgery that changed my face (temporarily), I can relate to how you are feeling. It’s perfectly normal and valid, as so much of our identity is how our faces look. Keep reminding yourself that you had MAJOR surgery! It’s not unexpected that your body will still be adjusting after 6 months. The Invisalign will also likely be a frustrating process for you - having work done on my teeth was the worst. But I feel much more confident now that I have better dental health and my teeth look better. In another year, you’ll feel much better about the situation. Hang in there for now, and enjoy your youth!
Understandable how you feel looking in the mirror that your face changed after years of looking at yourself but just know you still look bomb girl ! I could never
Aww Shelby, you're still enviously stunning! Your kindness also comes through ❤️
Give yourself some grace girl!! It's been a very hectic year for everyone plus you had major surgery and bought a house, it's totally okay to not be okay 100% of time!!
I’m in my early 30’s and I am inspired by you. Your so beautiful and hardworking. Big hug to you
Have you considered going to therapy? That might be a great outlet for you to talk about these insecurities and your feelings in general about the house and so on :) xo sending love
Great idea! A place to vent without restraint or judgment! Could only be helpful ❤️
I think you look amazing!!!! I’m sure it makes it so much harder because you make your living off being on camera and so you’re much harder on yourself, and I’m sure being in LA is also hard because it’s so focused on image. Once again, I think you look and sound great, but also remember that you are a smart businesswoman who owns two properties with your sister?? Incredible. You are a talented filmmaker. You have so much to offer. Sending you love. ❤️
Thank you for being so open and vulnerable, I think a lot of people can relate to feeling ugly. I can! Having to be on zoom meetings daily, I see myself every day and think, eek I could use some work. But I tell myself that I am pretty and this is how I look. thank you for sharing your struggles, it is comforting knowing that we are not alone. BTW I think you look amazing, your face has heeled and you look fantastic. Just keep practicing self-love and hang in there, you will get through this.
Zoom is literally the WORST! I had such struggles getting used to it especially because I started getting acne again from wearing my mask so every time I had to get on Zoom, I also had to cover my acne. I started to just do my makeup and that surprisingly helped me feel better overall. Now that my skin has settled down I have reduced the amount of makeup I wear each day but what made me sad was feeling like I needed to put makeup on just to feel human. I've never before in my life felt that way.
I have been watching your vlogs lately and you are so down-to-earth and relatable. I’m getting lower jaw surgery in a week and I’m both excited about it and anxious. Watching you document your recovery has really helped me gain insight into what recovery looks like. Thank you for taking the time to film, I’m really glad that I found your channel. I also think you’re stunning like...omg.
Shelby you’re absolutely gorgeous and I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way and still struggling.
It truly takes time. I’m 11 years out from my surgery on my jaw and you do accept those changes. I understand that feeling of longing for your old face but perception of how you look is completely in the eyes of the beholder. I think you look great!! Be patient with your body it’s still healing and needs time to settle.
Living through a house reno seems super stressful. Glad you got away for a bit. Don't hesitate to get help for what ails you. Well meaning fans will tell you to stop feeling the way you do but that's about as helpful as telling people to stop hurting.
It’s not superficial at all to feel stuck in a different body and especially a body you don’t love. I understand. 3 years ago I developed a chronic pain and fatigue condition and let me tell you the HARDEST part was feeling like my body was against me. Not a safe place for my soul anymore. And it sucks. So I just want to send love your way and tell you that it’s okay to feel this way and it’s not petty or superficial or materialistic at all. It’s a struggle and we are here to support you in any decision you make to help yourself through it❤️
your words are truly amazing
You’re soo pretty! Don’t be hard on yourself because there is sooo much more to life than to worry about all the little things. Stay strong!
Thank you for being so open and honest. We all feel this way sometimes. I can't imagine being online and seeing myself constantly. You're not alone and on top of that, you are inspiring and beautiful inside and out!
I've honestly followed you because of your surgery and because of you struggling with liking how you look. You continue to inspire me to have it done and your real honest feelings help me to know im going to be ok and I will have support. I have read it could take up to 2 years. 6 months down so good for you sis. Hang in there. You were beautiful before you are beautiful now. I do not want you to regret getting it done and everything over time will be better. You are so loved. Again I appreciate your honesty
You look gorgeous Shelby! Itmakes me sad to see you sad, you're such a lovely, sweet person! Watching your vid about the house craziness yesterday made me want to give you a hug, and this vlog has me feeling that even more so. It seems like you've got quite a lot on your plate at the moment and I hope you know there are lots of us cheering you on through all the challenges. You've got this! 💛
I have followed you for years and seeing you upset hurts my heart😭 I have always considered you such an inspiration. You are so beautiful and I wish you could feel that everyday, but of course we all have seasons where we struggle. Just know that there are people out there who seriously see all the beauty in you that you’re blind to. Keep your head up, this too shall pass! ❤️
Love all your content and all the house vlogs. Dealings with changes in your face is hard and nobody can tell you how to feel about it. The best thing to look at is that your face looks great regardless of the surgery and honestly it looks more mature now. A big thing is that you’re getting older so your face was bound to start looking different/more mature as time goes. You look great and we’re all here for you!
I almost started tearing up. Shelby you're beautiful inside and out. I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better, but I know it'll take time to adjust post-surgery. Your smile looks so amazing and I hope you love the way you look again soon🤍
hope you find peace and love for who you are! youre beautiful! and those little things you dont like about yourself is what makes you who you are we all have them. go easy on yourself you are an incredible human being and your videos are inspiring.
I honestly feel like you look back to normal so it sucks to hear that you don’t feel confident! I hope you start feeling better because you truly are so beautiful.
Shelby!! You are so beautiful, but most importantly you are a beautiful person too! Boss babe running her life with so much success. I am 44 years old and wish I had half the wisdom you do at your age. Chin up baby girl! You are a beaming light of sunshine!
girl i went back on your old videos and you look even better than before! you are beautiful
My heart goes out to you. I can’t even imagine the pressure of having a career like your where you really have to put yourself out there. Being brave is beautiful. Being honest is beautiful. Being vulnerable is beautiful. Please know that you are doing a phenomenal job and your content is genuine and full of obvious talent.
Aww I’m sad that you’re sad!!! I’m so sorry you’re struggling with your post surgery image. I can’t imagine how hard that must be. I know we tell you all the time in the comments how beautiful you are but you truly are!! Old nose and new nose!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Don’t worry, you look great!!
Also, love the A-Frame cabin you stayed in, especially that loft area at the top.
I have seen your older videos recently. The improvement that you had by having surgery is amazing!
You’re awesome Shelby!! Keep your head up! You got this!
Thanks for the vlog Shelby as well as your honesty again. I was also shocked that it was your first time going to Yosemite haha, but glad you enjoyed it. The Airbnb looks amazing, can't wait for that video and the interview with the owner. But even though you don't see it at times, I and countless others still think you look great!
Shelby, I promise you, you look amazing ! The recovery looks great! Don’t be so harsh on yourself.
Aw Shelby!! This broke my heart to hear. It’s weird because I so easily say those kind of things about myself but hearing you say it makes me so sad. It’s something that I would never notice and it doesn’t change you at all!
It's no superficial not to like your face. It's what you see everyday, what people see first of you and they will form a first impression out of it. So it's very important to be comfortable with how your face is. You still look beautiful tho, but it's different of feeling comfortable. Hopefully you'll feel comfortable with your face soon
That was heartbreaking when you started crying :( but I know you will see brighter days Shelby. I hope you feel better, thanks for being you!
Hi Shelby. Thanks girl for sharing your story and being so honest about how you feel about your face! Thank you for persevering and posting your videos anyways. Am learning so much from you and enjoying your videos ❤️❤️
6 months is not that long, you're still healing!! and you are still beautiful! ❤️✨⭐️🤍✨
Girl you are so incredibly inspiring. Keep being you and you'll feel like yourself again someday
We look up to you and what you create. Be proud of who you are!! ♡ i'm sure you will heal, it's a really hard process, mentally and physically. I hope you find comfort soon. Praying for you.
Sorry your still feeling that way! Wishing you more healing and comfort as time goes on. 💕✨
Aww Shelby!! I really enjoyed this vlog and appreciated your vulnerability. Self love is not easy but please know you make awesome content that people really enjoy! I love watching your vlogs as an escape from law school and especially loved the nature-centered content in this one! Sending you so much love and support!
I know the feeling, your nose changes your entire face. I hated mine my whole life until I finally got a nose job when I was 22 and have never been self conscious about it again. Not saying surgery is the answer but I know how frustrating and depressing self hatred can feel and not wanting to ever take pictures. That being said it took over a YEAR for my swelling to go down, I think noses are sensitive. You are probably just still very swollen in that area!Sending love ❤️ You’re beautiful!
Awe.. I wish I could just give you a big hug. From the videos I've watched, you seem beautiful inside and out...and yes, still right now 💕
I went back just now and reviewed a video pre-surgery. You are most definitely in a better place today. The look is different now but most definitely a positive, better look now. You made the right decision to get this procedure done now. No need to stress over this.
I’m so glad that you are able to express how you are feeling post surgery. I’m sure you are helping other people. ♥️💕
The A frame was in such a beautiful part of your country.
I’m so glad you’re sharing that genuine feeling of not liking your new face. I’m 7 weeks post opt and you are the first person to express your experience that is very similar to what I’m experiencing. I’m not happy but it is only 7 weeks post op for me 🥺
Honestly, I started watching your videos after your jaw surgery (didn’t even know you had it for awhile tbh) and I’ve always thought “wow, she’s so pretty and I love her style” I really look up to you and what you’re doing!
Shelby, don't be so harsh on yourself. I am sure it will take some time. You look great and your personality is beautiful! Many Blessings.
Looking at you from the side of your face ( profile ), I do see the difference. I can't see the overbite issue, you had anymore. I personally think you are so beautiful. Loved how you looked with the tan you got the other day. I love your usual everyday routine. The jog. The to do list that you make yourself, everyday. Thats something, I have put into practice in my own life. You are so hard working and your not afraid to tackle projects. You just go for it. Like the primering and painting of the cieling in your Palm Springs house and putting together the desk. I love that you talk about the stock market and you school us on it. You are so beautiful and so inspirational. You have so much to offer!
Loved this vlog! And that cabin! I def need to stay there with my friends for a weekend! Beautiful!
I learnt a lot of being productive from ur videos u r a legend
Hang in there! I absolutely understand where you are coming from. I went back to your old insta pictures and I can see swelling going on in the tip of your nose and also your jaw. It takes a year to heal. I am sooo sorry that it’s bothering you so much. Please be patient and try to focus on the positive aspects of the results! Remember that you still look beautiful!
Sending you positive vibes and I hope you feel happier no matter how you look. Hopefully you find peace in your journey of self love.
Shelby! Allow yourself to be sad and upset. You are experiencing a shift in your life. Just because six months have passed by you don’t have to be over this and happy with your face. Really let your body release your feelings, give yourself grace. We all know we are our toughest critics, and it’s hard to face what’s worrying us. And then it’s okay if the thought comes back even after you’ve let everything out. Honestly feel these feelings.
I have watched your entire jaw surgery journey Shelby and I think you're looking great! I bet there is even more healing to come too as inflammation can takes ages to settle down. Please be kind to yourself.
Shelby, thanks for being so honest about what you're dealing with after the jaw surgery. You are such a sweet, intelligent and hard-working person. I hope it will continue to heal and the swelling will go down. But, if it were me (you probably already have done this) I would talk to my doctor about it. If it ends up bothering you excessively down the road, you may want to do something about it. You need to do what's right for you. I think it sounds like it's still healing, based on what you said. And, even if it's been 6 months, it was a major surgery and I think it could definitely take way longer to go back to normal. Hope the situation gets better. I think you are beautiful! 🤗
girl!!!! We notice, but the knowledge you have and the information you give is great and make you beautiful because you share what you learn. let time past you by and let your face heal is just about time and patients. Love you and stay positive xoxo
love you Shelby! you are super strong and beautiful, and all of your feelings are valid! we are all here for you in this process and you are so beautiful! don't let the enemy get you down
I think you look better than pre surgery, even better when you talk with confidence. Love you.
Best wishes for your recovery
Dear Shelby, you look beautiful just the way you are. As a potential jaw surgery patient, your vlogs helped me to understand the surgery process more realistic and i can't thank you enough for that. Thank you for showing your emotions and thoughts without filter and fear. I watched lots of jaw surgery videos and i still think that you are swollen. I heard that the recorvery process could even take 2 years. So 6 months is nothing. You still have a journey ahead of you and you are rocking it! Even if your nose stays like this(tbh i don't think there is anything wrong with your nose) you would still have options to change it if it affects you mentally.
Be easy on yourself Shelby. You're beautiful and loved.
I had the same jaw surgery you did, and it took over a year for my swelling to fully go down and for me to feel good about how I looked. It's such a long process. A lot of what you don't like is swelling, and you will see such a huge difference at the one year mark (same with the numbness...the swelling in your nose will go down too). I didn't even realize how swollen I still was at six months until I looked back at pictures. My face changed SO much after the first year. I promise you will feel confident again. I know what you are experiencing, and it's so tough. You are absolutely stunning, but I know that doesn't help because you're the one that sees the changes and things you don't like. But just know you are beautiful! And you will feel that again once you are fully healed. Sending you so much love! :)
Shelby you are so so so beautiful! I know you feel like your face looks different, and even though there is a slight change it hasn’t changed how beautiful you are. You are one my favorite RUclipsrs. It breaks my heart that you don’t feel pretty. I hope you start to feel better about how you look soon. Maybe once the house is finished you’ll be less stressed and will view yourself the way we do...smart ,beautiful and chill af. You are literally goals!
Aw Shelby, don't cry. You're so beautiful.
❤️❤️❤️
listen shelby you have a better smile and jaw than i have so let that be something to be happy about .
I hope you start to feel better. I really think between the changes in your face and the renovation you're STRUGGLING and I just want you to know we hear you. I did a major renovation on my bathroom - JUST THE BATHROOM - in my house that was complete over a year ago and I STILL stress about it. Your stress over the house is totally normal I can't even imagine with the scope of your project . As for your nose, I feel like since it doesn't feel right it IS still healing/swollen. I hate that you're struggling. I highly suggest chatting with somebody (a therapist) if you don't already because these feelings you're having can possibly be managed with an outside perspective. Sending you love!!
Your side view is so awesome now! Your surgery achieved its goal. I hope your headaches are gone now from not having your proper bite before. Now, you have taken care of that part... just take time to heal emotionally a bit. You are an amazing young lady and from an amazing family. Always remember that!
Yes, your nose is a bit different now because they have to push back inward. If you still feel unhappy about your nose, get rhinoplasty. I wanted to that when I was your age because I also feel my nose is too big, but I come to terms with it now. I am an old lady and I still feel unhappy about it sometimes. Find it in yourself if you really want the nose job then go for it, and when you make that decision, try your best come to terms with it.
Sending big hugs to you Shelby , we can never see about ourselves like other people do you look amazing Shelby xxxx💐
You for sure look different after your surgery, but you look better gurl. I love it. And I love your new nose specifically. Its more button-y now. Thanks for your vids Shelby. They're really lovely.
Shelby you look fine! I know we can be hard on ourselves with insecurities and things we wish we had physically. Especially if we feel different. When I’m emotional I like to pray and run. Hang in there but you are really being too hard on yourself!!!
Shelby I had a year when my husband worked in another city which was a four hour drive away and I used to drive there every weekend to see him (I had a 3 day weekend at the time so it made more sense for me to go). I found that the secret to making the long drive go buy was listening to mysteries and thrillers. Those kind of stories are written to keep you 'turning the page' so I'd be happy to do my extremely boring 4 hour drive each way just to listen to them. Get Audible to sponsor you and try it!
You look just fine it will take a year to fully recover it all !
hikey i’ve been MAJORLY!! struggling with my face due to sudden acne that i’ve had for about five months now. it’s been really hard having clear skin for most of my life and then having to deal with it. i totally understand what your going through w/ your face (not the same issue but the same concept) just know that ur beautiful and your definitely not alone❤️❤️
Your nose looks fine but if you don’t end up liking the end result - don’t torture yourself and just get it fixed with surgery. You are the only one that matters when it comes to opinions about your own face so do what is best for you - even if that ends up being surgery.
This is truth!
Came to say basically the same thing. I would give it a full year and if I was still unhappy I would go talk to a plastic surgeon. It’s hard not to recognize yourself and it’s okay to have strong feelings about it.
You look so beautiful, and the surgery looks really good on you. I feel like you’re just not used to seeing this new face in the mirror it’ll take time. I know it’s hard to not judge yourself but I promise you look amazing. 🤍🤍
Ooo the waterfall looks amazing, and I look forward to seeing the Airbnb video:)
Shelby you are so so beautiful, I know it can be so hard to see and experience physical changes to our body but you are so strong and still look amazing!! keep your head up gorgeous!
You'll always be beautiful to me Shelby Church. My first love and crush on RUclips ever since I came across your channel. Cheer up you are awesome and you still look great as far as I can see!!
Completely understand where you're coming from when it comes to being saddened with the change in your appearance. I had to have a skin lesion taken off my nose a couple years ago and it was really hard for the first year+ because I felt like I didn't look like myself anymore. You get so used to your appearance and it can be really jarring to have a change. For me it got easier with time, but I still get sad sometimes when I try to take pictures. Sending you positive energy and an air hug.
Obviously, you're feelings are totally valid and it's your body so you should be happy and comfortable in it... But, for the record, i think you are literally gorgeous. You have such an effortless beauty about you!!
Shelby, you look great. Be grateful for what you have and the surgery did help you speak more clearly.
Could you do a video on how you're doing with Medium or takeaways from podcasting, what you would do differently, etc.? Or maybe doing a channel with livestreams/interview format?
Thanks for posting.
Wish you a speedy recovery Shelby، you are a Diligent person 💕
Hey Shelby, I had my jaw surgery 6 weeks ago and watching your videos helped me alot. I don't feel alone with my troubles and I'm sure that you are helping many people out there. People tell me that I look good and they see nothing wrong and it can be upsetting sometimes because it feels like nobody understands me (even though they mean it and they are trying to be supportive).
I do see that your nose shape has changed after the surgery, I don't think it looks bad, but I understand how you feel because we are all extra harsh on ourselves and I will also feel bad if I had gone through the same change as you did. I am thinking of having a cosmetic surgery after the swelling goes down to fix the parts I don't like, because as much as positive thinking is good, I look into my face everyday and it's important that I like it. Our problems are something that can be easily fixed with a cosmetic surgery, if you can find some relief in that. Also if your nose still feels weird & stiff, there is a possibility that it is still the swelling, since it can stay for 1 year. I hope you feel better :)
Awww don’t cry 🥺 you look beautiful.
Omg I want to give you a hug 😭 I’ve literally thought through out your last few vlogs that you looked so good... but I understand how you might be feeling because changes to your appearance is hard. We all think you look gorgeous and you always have!
And also, not saying that you need a nose job, but it’s always an option if you continued to feel so unhappy with your appearance. No one can judge you girl you have been through it with jaw surgery, you deserve whatever will make you happy!
