I improved facial contour irregularities + a long face shape

My face shape had been my biggest concern for a long time. It had a lot of contour irregularities and looked long overall, so I was always conscious of it even when taking selfies. Especially when I saw photos taken by other people, it showed even more plainly, and that was really stressful. I hated how my face shape showed exactly as it was in candid photos, not photos taken from carefully chosen angles. So every time I took photos, my expression would stiffen for no reason, and I was reluctant to post photos without editing. Honestly, I hesitated for a long time because I wondered whether it was really right to go as far as surgery over a concern like this, but I started thinking that instead of living with constant stress, I should try changing it properly once. Now that I’ve actually done it, I almost wonder why I didn’t do it sooner. Once my face shape became more refined, my overall impression looked different, I became less picky about angles when taking photos, and I barely edit them anymore. Before, taking photos felt burdensome, but now I feel like it’s okay even if someone just takes a photo of me, so I feel much more at ease. These days, a lot more people around me say my face really looks better and ask which clinic I went to, and some friends have even gone for consultations after seeing me. Whenever I hear things like that, I feel proud for no particular reason haha If there are people who, like me, keep only worrying about their face shape, I think making the right choice for yourself sooner rather than dragging it out too long can also be a good option. Living with a face where you like photos taken just as they are, without relying on editing, turned out to be much more comfortable and nice than I expected.
