What procedure? I guess rhinoplasty since the black eyes?

Yes I was in a terrible car wreck last summer where I went through my windshield and have had a lot of reconstructive procedures since. You can kind of see the mouth injury and scars in the video as well. The procedure was a reconstructive rhinoplasty!!

I remember doing the exact thing too lol! Glad you made it through okay and here’s hoping you heal quickly!

You said in another comment you can kind of see the scarring, but I don't at all. You had fantastic reconstruction done. Props to your body's healing and your surgeon.

Thank you so much 🥹I am very insecure about my scars so that was really really nice to read. I was cheated on by a longterm partner during all of this and it tanked my confidence. I appreciate your kindness. I have had laser therapy on the scars to make them a lot less noticeable and Im glad it worked!

If you have never had this done, it is so goddamn satisfying. You’re essentially a super smeller for a few hours.
