Farrah Abraham has sported a variety of faces (and body types) over the years, but the fired Teen Mom OG star is insisting that she’s had minimal cosmetic surgery work done.
During her appearance this week on Bunnie XO‘s Dumb Blonde podcast, the Backdoor Teen Mom stated that she hasn’t had many plastic surgeries, and that she is now embracing her natural mug (and body) more than ever before.
“I’m really happy I don’t do much [cosmetic surgery] work. I take things out of my face. I’m really on a journey of really getting back to myself,” she said.
Farrah blamed her seemingly ever-changing face on cameras and filters.
“It’s funny when we do a Live [session on social media] and our cameras are weird and people think I’ve gone crazy with plastic surgery but that’s not the case,” Farrah said.
Bunnie straight-out asked Farrah to reveal which cosmetic procedures she’s had done, and the Backdoor Teen Mom claimed that her work is minimal.
“I will just say that I’ve had a nose job. I have had a chin implant. I dabble here and there with fillers at times,” she said. “And [fillers] stay and then they go.”
Interestingly, Farrah failed to mention a slew of other plastic surgery/cosmetic procedures she’s had over the past 15 years or so. She even left out the fact that she has breast implants, a procedure she first had in front of Teen Mom cameras in 2010! (If you want a blast from the past, click here to read The Ashley’s recap from that episode. And, yes, The Ashley agrees that she’s been writing about this crap way too long.)
After that surgery– which took Farrah from an A-cup to a C-cup, the Word Salad Connoisseur has gone on to have at least two more confirmed breast augmentation surgeries— even having some of them filmed for various outlets.
(For those keeping track at home, Farrah has confirmed at one point or another that she’s had at least three boob jobs, at least one nose job, butt injections, other butt procedures, the chin implant and chin implant removal surgery, vaginoplasty, labioplasty, cheek filler injections, and lip fillers. She has also stated that she has tried to get a Brazilian butt lift at one point but didn’t have enough fat to transfer to have the surgery done.)
On the podcast, Farrah spoke about her failed attempt to get a lip implant back in 2015.
“I was trying to do a lip implant and I was on Botched, the show, because I almost died from [that surgery],” she said.
(Back in 2016, the ‘Botched’ docs– Dr. Paul Nassif and Dr. Terry Dubrow– told The Ashley that they declined to perform cosmetic procedures on Farrah, due to her being “difficult.”)
Farrah said– surprisingly— people always tell her to “go back” to the face she had during the 2015-2016 time period.
“For some reason, people always go back [to pictures from that time] and compare [and say], ‘Farrah looks great like this,’ with a face that had a chin implant, a swollen nose from a surgery. I was actually really depressed at that year of my life…”
The former ‘Teen Mom’ star then reveals that– as many fans have suspected over the years—she did suffer from mental health issues surrounding her appearance.
“It’s like a face dysmorphia…I had that at the time, when I had that chin implant,” Farrah said. “So for people to say, ‘Oh, we love Farrah better than’ when I was definitely anti-myself, and peer-pressured and just like, ‘Oh, I want to look good.’ That was just way too much.”
“I love my face now; I love who I am,” she said. “I love coming back to myself. Maybe [I’ll have] just rejuvenation and skin-tightening and really taking care and upkeeping myself. That’s what I pride myself on. That’s good self love!”
