To be annoyed at this?

[mnthrowaway202020]

Went out for a casual lunch with 3 of my colleagues today. We get lunch together often and no one posts about it. This time one of them posted photos of us two, where I look awful and she looks nice.

I had filler last week so my face is swollen still, I look awful and to be honest, want to dissolve it regardless of swelling. I told her I didn’t like any of the photos we took because the filler is obvious and I feel insecure. We discussed my botched filler on the day so she knew how I felt.

Aside from the filler, my hair looks shit and I wasn’t ready for the photos. I look rough generally.

I thought it was just a low-key lunch, if I knew she was gonna post lots on her social channels I wouldn’t have gone or at least would have prepared myself. I’ve already had “wtf” messages from people we know as I look that bad so the posts didn’t go under the radar. It’s like she chose the ones that I look the worst in!

I do look better natural, this is my first and last time trying filler! Having said that, I don’t think having filler is a big deal, particularly amongst my age peers (20s). I saw a doctor that didn’t listen to my subtle wishes nor do it very well. Hence why I’d prefer to avoid photos until I get it dissolved soon. These photos look bad due to an off guard/bad angle, the filler making my top lip protrude/swollen cheeks etc.

They said sorry and deleted the offending photos though.

Great news they deleted it 👍
Not convinced about fillers - I don't really know anyone who has them. But does the product ever go away? Will people have to carry on having it forever more just to look 'normal'?

OP - I thought you were much older. Having fillers in your 20’s is absolutely ridiculous. Where do you even go from there? You’ll end up looking like the bride of wildenstein! (Google her).

I hate that women in their 20’s (or any age) feel the need to do this. I bet if you surveyed 100 people they would mostly tell you you look better without it. It’s so sad.
