And I agree, I think she looks so much more gorgeous in the first photo with her pouty lips and big brown eyes. Just the way she is. As for me, nope, I would never change my face nor ever consider changing my face. I'm very happy for the way that I am. And i agree with your comment above, personality definitely wins over looks anytime.

I still feel like it isn't. I'm always surprised when people like me. So I guess part of life is trying to find the right people to be friends with. ;) I hope so but I felt like my personality wasn't enough back then. I still feel like it isn't.

I don't see anything wrong with altering your face as long as you do it safely and don't go to extremes. I consulted different plastic surgeons and I finally bonded with the last one, he got what I was trying to do, all surgeons had credentials, yeah I researched that and finally the last surgeon I went to I chose him to do my nose job. My nose job is the only plastic surgery I'll ever have. I don't want more. I don't see how plastic surgery is any different from losing weight, getting your hair dyed, getting clothes that fit you well. I don't have the perfect nose in the world. But its the right nose for me. I feel so much better about my nose now. Also when I was growing up kids bullied me a lot, people can say oh well love yourself but that's not going to make a difference when you have to deal with a visual world where people judge you for your looks even in adulthood. I was bullied in high school and I didn't want to go through that as an adult, so I had LASIK, a nose job, and veneers done, then I moved of state and started over. Before I moved,I even went to see a judge and changed my name (it was more personal because I wanted to no longer carry my dad's last name, my mom has recently remarried to a nicer guy). Most people have no idea what its like to be bullied extensively and I got tired of that. Anyway I'm done with my makeover, the thing with makeovers is you need to know when to stop. I didn't want to go into extremes. Growing up I thought I would die a virgin, I really did, no guys wanted to date me, there were so many years where I didn't have friends at all. There were some years where no one wanted to sit by me at lunch, didn't want to work with me on group projects,didn't want to do anything at all with me. It was so soul destroying. Something like that sticks with you, even in adulthood. I learned that in life we are always judged by our looks. It sucks but that's how the world is. At times I thought of committing suicide. Kids told me I was stupid, ugly, they called me all sorts of sad names. I don't think they even feel sorry for anything they did. I don't know what kept me going I really don't. Anyway I didn't die a virgin because I eventually found a bf who is my best friend first. And while having a makeover is nice, I've learned that in life I needed something else to be a more confident person, like an education and skills, which is why I went back to college this year. I'm glad I didn't commit suicide because I would have missed out on the life I have now. I also think when you have an education, skills and talents, those are the things that will last when I'm older and hit my 40s.

Two things I would change are my skin and other people have mentioned and my right eyelid, which is droopy. But the eyelid is genetic and I know I'll have it fixed in a few years when it really starts to droop. I would never want to change my face and not look like myself.

Ultimately, though, I know I'm not unattractive, so there doesn't seem to be much point. If I wasn’t so cheap, there are probably a lot of things I’d change.
