[@AggravatedCassowary.]

I wouldn't get fillers. Don't jump on trends. I thought about it for a good time in my life, but I always waited to see what the repercussions are and there it is......botched, makes you look WAY older than you are and there are so many reasons not to. Its a good thing for older people, possibly, but young? You all getting these procedures are falling for media standards and getting used for easy money. This is what they wanted.

I’m glad Gabbie has finally gone through her healing journey and will continue to heal and work on herself. I always hoped she would when everything went down and the internet started to call insane.

[@megharoni]

A phrase that has REALLY worked for me and my self-confidence is: "Yup, I look like a normal human." On my good days and my bad days, remembering I'm human and made in the image of God despite whatever "imperfections" I think I see has been really reassuring for me as I get older.

[@TheGabbieShow]

oh I love that

[@FlorDL904]

Perfected faces tend to look "uncanny valley" bc no human face is perfect. They look beautiful but they don't make you feel comfortable and humanly connected, especially when the facial gestures are affected and non verbal communication is compromised. Imperfect faces are human faces that make vulnerable human conections (obviously is not that extreme there are levels but yk what I mean)

[@extraterrestrial615]

You know Gabbie, this video will help a lot of people. It sure helped me a lot. Recently, I was at my first consultation for a nose correction and I caught myself trying to justify the risks of going blind or losing my nose to necrosis, to a point where I realized that the usually rational human being in me just vanished so quickly because I wanted to look a certain way to everybody else. Your video made me cancel my next appointment, and I will honor my nose because it shows my heritage and family history. Thank you, G.

I understand getting procedures done for things you're insecure about but for drs to constantly suggest to change parts of your face is sooooo unacceptable. I don't think they should be giving their unwillingly opinions on COSMETIC surgery.

[@TheSwauzz]

To be fair, medical doctors are not supposed to do that per their code of ethics. Cosmetic surgery places get around this by have techs give suggestions or just simply break their code. Be wary of pop up cosmetic procedure places too, where faked medical licenses run rampant. To add--ANY doctor/surgeon suggesting something you are even remotely "uhhh I don't know" about, get a new doctor/surgeon. Even if you are someone overly anxious, there is a doctor out there who is actually going to make you feel comfortable with any decision.

Not only because I hate going under, but because the amount of lack of self love I have for this body right now, is huge. I mean, so huge that I’m literally get chopped and stuffed because of it. When I was 20 I wanted fake boobs, because I hated my body then too. Later I came to a point of acceptance and love and 20 years later, I can’t seem to come to that point again. I pray that my surgery helps me and not harms me. I pray that anyone watching or reading this loves themselves soooo much, they can figure a way to just adore themselves as they are.

She always points out features she hates about herself. Funny enough, people always say I am her TWIN. You said something in here that sparked my brain to say “she is always talking down about her looks, but if I look like her, am I ugly? Why does she think I’m pretty but not herself?” That’s why I sent her this. Thank you for this. Thank you for sharing your experience and your truth because we definitely can all relate. P.S.

How easy it is to be lured into those traps and lose yourself, and more importantly... come back. Her attention to detail, noticing these things after the fact and rather then leaving them as noticed, to understand what they mean, the positives and negatives and more importantly acknowledging the damage done is not only uplifting to a viewer on a platform but a true informer to the growth of the creator posting this. I commend you Gabbie.

I want to look better and more symmetrical” I didn’t really pay much attention to fillers or know all you could do until Gabbie. So I am glad she is recognizing the harm in promoting that because I regret ever touching my face with filler. It’s gone now and I’m back to my old face but at the same time… it doesn’t feel like mine anymore

Gabbie, Thank you for this video. I was one of those followers you spoke of in this video. I'm part lebanese also, and my nose is different compared to others in my life and it's crooked. I have hated it for so long... I remember your video of you getting your nose done and I wanted mine done so badly but could not afford to have it done. I'm now 41 and let me tell you, it's been rough. I have always been known as the hair and makeup girl and I hid my insecurities behind it all. Well, at this point my hair is flat and won't do a thing I want it to do and my skin is dry and has lines that make me look haggard. feel gross and I have gained about 20lb since December.... I have never expressed my feelings to anyone until now. It nice to hear the truth about the truth beauty industry and most of all it nice to hear that it is possible to learn that not being "prefect" is okay and that it is okay to love ourselves anyways.

[@SarahsSpareCorner]

I’m so glad you’re speaking about this. Not only is it really interesting but it says a lot about what influencing was like when the job started getting more attention about 10 years ago. Obviously this was recent, but I am referring to the appearance obsession that was hidden for many years and thus leads to the cultures now. I remember around 2019 when things started getting harder for you, and the increase you did talking about your face not being symmetrical. Attention to your nose, lips and the right side of your face. As a view I honestly could not tell at all but I noticed how much it was effecting you. Then I remember the video you did posted (since deleted) about maybe getting surgery on your neck. I remember how cruel everyone was about that video, but my heart went out to you. We are similar in age, and I could imagine how it must have felt being in the influencer world as long as you had and the struggles you had previously mentioned with your self image. I am glad you are speaking about this with good boundaries set in place. Thank you for being so honest

Thank you, Gabbie, I see myself in you. I have since the start of your youtube career, and seeing you heal shows me I was right in believing that healing is possible

[@bryahrisdon2605]

Damn, beyond just being incredibly moving, this was such a well-done piece of work! Clearly well-thought out but so organic and passionate. Very courageous and mature of you to own how your hurt allowed you to hurt others. But I'm also so sorry for the violent ways that medical professionals abused their power and took advantage of you. Sending you so many prayers, you are powerful. First video I've ever seen from you, btw!

[@TheGabbieShow]

thank you for your prayers! glad to have you here :)

I feel like this reflection could be a poem or essay especially with the repetition ❤❤❤

I’ve been thinking about lip fillers for a while this video alone has just made me realise that I don’t need it, my lips are made perfect for my face, and changing anything is unnecessary! ❤ loving this version of you! Thankyou!

[@kakigreen]

wow this video has been major confirmation to me Gabbie. Thank you so much i'm very impressed by your mental development and exposing the worldly beauty standart that has been an illusion all along set by the enemy to hate and reject ourselves

[@undertheseathatsme]

This made me cry. as I struggle with PCOS and weight staring at myself in the mirror picking myself apart became so natural. This just really made me feel seen and really encourages the whole "be kinder to yourself and treat yourself as your bestfriend" mentality we should all have. Thank you Gabbie

[@Swish_Ish_Bish]

Love you Gabs!!! Im so happy to see you healing and happier. Never gave up on you and please don't give up on yourself! Whether you're struggling or in a good place, you're an amazing person and I adore you as do a lot of people! ❤

2:20 the second image is a woman who *has* had rhinoplasty, you can see the scars. Not only that, but you can measure her nose in both images and clearly see the major reduction in mass. It is misleading to post that image while saying "here is a picture of nose filler, a non-surgical procedure".

[@rebecaguilty]

Gabbie I’m so happy that you are better, that you’ve come to peace with your looks. Honestly it made me kinda sad when you made the video about nose filler cause I never understood why people feel so comfortable to point out your nose just cause it’s not what they are used to. As you said, features that give you character, uniqueness of it, that’s what makes us beautiful.

[@Cuzzy2695]

I’m so happy that you’re feeling content and happy in yourself now @TheGabbieShow. This video and its message is so important.

[@tkdchic78]

Story times is what brought me to your channel. Glad you’re back ❤

[@MultiSuperdinosaur]

I’ve thought about treatments at various times and you have deinfluenced me in the best way

[@mnmusic_culture]

You have so many good stories and experiences of the dark side of being an influencer and have so much inside information about the industry. Someone should do a documentary about the influencer industry and the reality of what it is like.

[@2089kholcomb]

You can see your confidence exuding from your soul! I am happy to see you happy. This video was so refreshing. Thank you for the message. I am so glad that you see your beauty, Gabbie.

[@holly3530]

it’s really good to see you being healthy gabbie, it’s really inspiring and good to see. keep on healing ❤

[@wturrtle333]

the storytelling was exquisite, you are gifted at captivating an audience.

[@marthafay4587]

The nit picking and flaw enhancing remarks is truly the slow progression of the beauty industry. So incredibly said and relatable! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and clarity 💕

[@sophiaschneider4680]

I remember how mean the vlog squad would be to her and I was always shocked that she wouldn’t say anything to defend herself. Now knowing how insecure she was it makes sense. Thanks for sharing your story, girl. I’m glad you love yourself now ❤
