Under the knife: Surviving the unthinkable pt. 2
This is by far the hardest post I’ve ever had to make, but I knew I had to be vulnerable and honest, regardless of my discomfort in sharing it. I hope it reaches women out there who are thinking about going under the knife because there’s something about their body that they don’t love. Risking my life for beauty is my greatest and only true regret. I wish I would’ve loved myself a little bit more. I wish I would’ve accepted my imperfections and understood that there is no such thing as a “perfect body” and that self-acceptance and beauty start from within and that we have all been created in God’s image regardless of what we look like. We seek external validation and compare ourselves to people on social media forgetting that none of it is real!
I’m not here to demonize plastic surgery. I know there are incredible surgeons out there who truly help many women and genuinely care for their patients. But just like there are amazing doctors, there are also some extremely evil people in the industry who care only about money and power, preying on women’s insecurities to profit at any cost, including women’s lives.
Please help me share my story. Send this to any women you know who are considering changing something about their bodies, especially outside the U.S.
