Blac Chyna opens up about cosmetic treatments revealing her quest for perfection was literally blinding.
During a recent Instagram Live, the video vixen turned entrepreneur, who has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent years—including the removal of facial fillers—revealed that her appearance has significantly improved since she stopped using dermal injections. “Yeah, my face is way better,” she said while responding to fan questions. “Way, way better. I had ‘filler blindness,’” she added, explaining that she was “blind to the fillers.”
According to Blac Chyna, she kept returning for more facial injections, admitting she was “looking crazy.” However, she’s since turned things around, unveiling a fresh new look in a “no filter” selfie earlier this spring. “Just pure skin, baby…and the sun,” she said.
In March 2023, the socialite and entrepreneur revealed she had silicon from illegal injections removed from her buttocks and had face fillers in her jaw, lips, and cheeks dissolved.
“This is me now,” she explained during an appearance on The Tamron Hall Show. “So you can see the difference, right here in the cheek area. Yeah, see when I smile, now you can see all of my teeth. I had so much filler in my lips that I could barely smile, but you see now when I smile.”
As part of her transformation, Blac Chyna also gave up drugs and alcohol, celebrating 21 months of sobriety in June. She shared a video of herself dancing in her backyard while holding a sign that read, “21 months sober.”
Last year, during an interview with Tamron Hall, Blac Chyna revealed that she is completely finished with plastic surgery procedures.
“I’m done with it y’all. No more,” she stated. When asked why she had initially opted for cosmetic work, Chyna replied, “Insecurities and, honestly, what was kind of in at that moment.”
“Being in the industry, you want to have this image of yourself to look perfect,” she continued. “And there’s no such thing as that. There’s no such thing.”
Chyna also reflected on her past, saying, “I was an exotic dancer for six years, from the ages of 18 to 24 years old.” She explained that being in the strip club environment led her to compare herself to others and feel pressured to alter her body. “I’m looking at the [other] women, I’m looking at myself like, ‘Okay, that’s not it. This is not gonna make the money. This is not gonna do it.’ So I felt the pressures of trying to hurry up and build my body when I should’ve just waited until I was older.”
“At 19, 18 years old, your body’s not developed. In my mind set, I wasn’t thinking about that, and nobody was telling me, you know, right from wrong,” she added. “It was the golden ticket. I was not worried about [the health risks] at all.”
