Brooklinn Khoury, a well-known influencer who rose to prominence following a harrowing dog attack back in 2020, has been chronicling her journey to recovery on various social media platforms. With an impressive following of over 450,000 on Instagram, Khoury has garnered significant support and has also shared her inspiring story through vlogs on her YouTube channel, becoming a beacon of motivation for countless individuals to never abandon their aspirations.
The trajectory of this woman’s life was forever altered in the blink of an eye. Renowned professional skateboarder Brooklinn Khoury recently took to social media to unveil the results of her latest reconstructive surgery. Having endured a traumatic pit bull attack that resulted in the loss of her upper lip and a portion of her nose, the 23-year-old has undergone an arduous series of seven surgeries aimed at reconstructing her face.
Through a series of photographs, Khoury proudly exhibits the outcomes of what she hopes will be her final procedure, while also opening up about the emotional journey she has traversed during this process.
“In essence, my doctor is recreating my upper lip during this surgery—fashioning a Cupid’s bow and central columns. The goal is to enhance the aesthetic appearance of my lip,” Khoury explained during her interview, revealing that these surgeries usually span the entire day due to her doctor’s meticulous approach. “My doctor is exceedingly cautious and strives for perfection in every aspect.”
According to Khoury, the recovery period following her latest reconstructive surgery may encompass up to six weeks. She disclosed that she would experience temporary numbness in her upper lip immediately after the procedure, with the possibility of sensation returning over a span of four months.
Surgeries have now become an integral part of Brooklinn’s life. Having survived the pit bull attack, she now finds herself in a perpetual patient-doctor relationship with a plastic surgeon—a circumstance that presents both physical and mental challenges.
Despite her doctor’s renowned pursuit of perfection, Khoury maintains no specific expectations regarding the final appearance of her face following the reconstructive surgeries.
“My personal aspiration, just like with any surgery I undergo, is to learn to embrace and love what I see,” she shared. “Previously, I would fixate on insignificant details that held no real significance. For instance, right before the attack, I was insecure about a pimple on my upper lip. And then, within minutes, my entire lip was gone.”
Brooklinn has emerged as a genuine inspiration, touching the lives of many with her unwavering optimism. On her Instagram account, she continues to share the progress of her recovery, imparting a sense of hope and resilience to her followers. In one of her posts, she writes, “Nearly three weeks post-op! The healing process is progressing admirably. Still experiencing some swelling, but I feel incredibly blessed with the results!”
“I have always possessed confidence and never truly cared about my physical appearance. I genuinely love myself and the way I look. However, society doesn’t always align with my perspective,” she revealed, explaining her decision to openly share her story on social media despite the occasional judgmental glances and critical comments she encounters.
“For me personally, there’s no point in harboring self-consciousness, and I believe that posting on social media has definitely aided in my healing process,” Khoury expressed. “On social media, I am transparent and authentic. What you see is what you get.”
Woman defends decision to tattoo boyfriend’s name on forehead, says it’s an expression of love
A woman who tattooed her boyfriend’s name on her forehead is defending her face art, suggesting that anyone who refuses to do the same, isn’t really in love.
Ana Stanskovsky, who penned a permanent love letter to Kevin on her face, insists it’s an expression of love, but online users are saying “it’s stupid” and that her “next boyfriend will hate it.”
Polish-born Ana Stanskovsky surprised her 588,000 TikTok followers by sharing a post of her newly transformed face.
In a viral TikTok clip, Stanskovsky is seen sitting in a chair, having some work done to her forehead.
The “my new face tattoo” video, which has 18.3 million views since it was first shared November 6, shows Stanskovsky getting her boyfriend’s name, penned in large black cursive letters, across her forehead.
The clip zooms in on the artist permanently inking over the stencil that reads “Kevin,” and Stanskovsky wincing in pain.
When the art is complete, she stands up to view her extreme expressions of love in the mirror
“Done? Okay let’s see. Oh my God, I love it. Wow, Kevin’s gonna love it,” she says.
She finished the clip by asking her followers “Do you think he will like it?”
Responding to her question, one netizen jokes, “He’ll love it! Your next boyfriend will hate it though.” Another user writes, “I don’t know who Kevin is, but wherever you are…. Run!”
As the video hits the eyes of the puzzled social community, people are warning her of future regrets.
“Great decision here. I don’t see how you could ever regret this,” one fan shares.
Replying to the overwhelming suggestions of regret, Stanskovsky fired back with another clip saying she will never regret the Kevin tattoo.
Stanskvosky replies, “I know many of you said I’m gonna regret that and what if we break up and all of this stuff, all of this horrible stuff and I just wanna say this is how I’m expressing my feelings so if I love someone, I’m doing this.” She continues, “I’m loving it, I’m definitely never gonna regret that. How can I regret this? It’s beautiful.”
“A handwritten note is a precious way to express your feelings,” quips one cyber citizen.
Fans still aren’t convinced, and many think her outrageous announcement of love must be a joke.
“Wait. Wasn’t it a joke?” writes one while another says, “I was waiting for them to say it’s just a prank but they never did.”
The influencer then tells viewers that every time she looks in the mirror she is “in love.”
“I’m in love with the tattoo and I’m in love with my boyfriend,” she said. “I think if you really love someone, you’ve just got to show it you know, you’ve just got to prove it…So I think if your girlfriend doesn’t want to tattoo your name on her face, you just need to find yourself a new girlfriend because I don’t think she loves you.”
Shocked by her comment, users jumped in saying she needs to reconsider her shows of love.
“‘if [your] girlfriend doesn’t want your name on the forehead she doesn’t love you,’” One netizen writes, quoting her. Then offering this advice to Kevin, the user continues, “dump her ASAP.”
Given the uncertainty of relationships, one netizen asks, “and if he breaks up with you what then?”
Stanskovsky answers: “What if we break up? I’ll just have to find myself a different Kevin.”
But one person has a better idea: “It would be better if you wrote on it that I am stupid.”
At the moment there’s been no response from Kevin.
What do you think of this woman getting her boyfriend’s name tattooed across her forehead?
There are far better ways of expressing your love, and if you insist on a grand gesture, maybe a smaller tattoo in a place it’s not so visible?
