Supermodel Bella Hadid has long been celebrated for her striking beauty, but in a candid 2024 interview, she revealed deep regrets about her childhood nose job.
“I was 14 and insecure. My mom [Yolanda Hadid] took me to a surgeon, and I woke up with a completely different face,” she shared. “I wish I had embraced my natural features.” Hadid’s original nose had a slight bump, which she now sees as part of her heritage.
Ironically, her post-rhinoplasty look helped her become a top model, but she says it came at a psychological cost. “I didn’t recognize myself for years,” she admitted.
Dr. Anthony Youn, a plastic surgeon, noted that teen rhinoplasties are controversial. “The nose keeps growing, and early surgery can lead to long-term structural issues.”
Many fans praised her honesty, while others criticized parents who allow minors to undergo cosmetic surgery.
Hadid’s story highlights the pressures of beauty standards—and the importance of self-acceptance.
