Hi,
I’m a 23 year old woman looking for some financial assistance to help me get my plastic surgery journey started. I’ve been battling chronic illness for a long time, and all of my money goes to medical expenses. I’m desperately trying to fix my health, but I’ve also wanted cosmetic surgery for many years and now it doesn’t seem remotely possible. I’m unable to work right now and don’t have financial assistance. Before my health got worse, I looked better, but in the last couple of years my body has been through the wringer and changed my appearance. I used to have a nice body and only wanted to do my face, but I feel that the only things I liked about my appearance (mostly my body) have been taken from me too. I feel devastated, and because I’m so young, I feel like I’m the only girl who doesnt get to be “young and beautiful.” I just feel like The Sick Girl. And I look it too. I also am tired of being “short and adorable” (people think I’m 15 sometimes), I’m an adult now and I want to be considered beautiful.. or hot..or whatever..and treated more like my age. I want to feel ~womanly~
There’s much more I need done than a nosejob but I’m posting in this category. I’m looking for potential buccal fat removal, fat grafting to fix deep undereye hollows (or a blepharoplasty-unsure), lipo & fat transfer for a BBL and potential breast augmentation, smartlipo or coolsculpting for my neck and other areas, ptosis surgery, rhinoplasty, and a sliding genioplasty for my chin. Also looking to get Cellfina, a cellulite treatment.
The nosejob is PARTIALLY medical- I have a deviated septum with chronic sinus issues & some breathing issues. I had braces in my teens to fix a major overbite and they tried to correct my jaw but it’s still misaligned and I have TMJ. My teeth, jaw, and nose are all related. Along with a sliding genioplasty for my chin, I’m considering fixing my jaw the rest of the way and hopefully correcting the TMJ. I may need further dental work but unsure. I also have had chronic acne and other skin problems for 11 years, I’m covered in scarring I can’t get rid of and some premature lines and nasolabial folds. Still have some acne but after many years without a single “clear skin day” I’m totally traumatized and tired of no one knowing what I look like without makeup.
I’m looking to get laser resurfacing & any other skin procedure recommended to my by my dermatolgist and/or plastic surgeon, but have no money. I owe my dermatologist $4000 for years of acne treatments still, too. And finally, I’m looking to get electrolysis. I’m a hairy Persian girl and I got laser hair removal years ago, didn’t work for me (lol). Tired of shaving my whole body daily tbh. So I’m gonna try electrolysis. The hair removal isn’t as big as a priority to me as fixing my skin and other surgeries.
I know this is a LOT, and I don’t expect much to happen, but I’ve been looking into surgery for years amd have been to several free consultations in the past, just unable to finance anything. Being sick for so long has done things to my appearance that I never thought could happen. Just to add, my main health problems (out of many) are chronic Lyme disease, mold illness, Candida, fibromyalgia, digestive disorders, etc. On a more personal note, I’m a survivor of domestic abuse & live with PTSD & other issues.. I really just feel completely desperate and stripped of everything. I’ve struggled with my health since I was 4, but the last 3 years of my life have been the worst.
Since there are multiple things I’m looking to get done & nothing is really set in stone, I’m using this as a fundraiser for everything and anything I may be able to get done down the line. If I’m able to get in to see a good surgeon I actually want (I can’t even afford a consultation & most aren’t free for really good surgeons), and am more decided on what I’m doing first, I may create an individual fundraiser for that one procedure alone so I know exactly how much I need. But for now, this is my “general surgery fund” and ANY and all donations are extremely appreciated.
*I can add more photos if requested, I just feel really insecure about posting photos where I’m totally un-posed…lol
*Will be perks for those who donate..
