Former Love Island star, Zara McDermott, told fans she got filler in her jaw in her early twenties because she felt like she ‘didn’t quite fit in’ with beauty standards
Zara McDermott has revealed she’s had her jaw filler dissolved after opening up about her past insecurities.
The Love Island star, 29, who is dating One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson, explained that she had the injectable filler in her early twenties because she felt like she “didn’t quite fit in” with beauty standards.
Speaking candidly on her Instagram Stories, sharing before and after snaps of herself with and without the filler, Zara said she was convinced to alter her face after an injector recommended a “bit of profile balancing”. Urging her followers to love themselves as they are, the influencer, sporting a black Nike zip-up top and a slicked-back pony tail, explained: “I’ve really wanted to get some of my jaw filler dissolved. For context, I started getting a little bit of jaw filler when I was 20 and I didn’t know a lot about it.”

Zara continued: “When you’re younger, you can have these insecurities. And I went to an injector when I was 20 or 21. She basically talked to me about like doing a bit of profile balancing and I got into all of that when I was in my early twenties.” The TV star continued: “I did that for a few years and the problem with that is the filler doesn’t actually dissolve internally from your face as quickly as you think it does.
“I was like, ‘Well, I need a top up after a year.’ Anyway, I feel like I ended up with a lot of filler in my face and a lot of volume.” Revealing she was now free from filler in her jaw, she added: “I’m jaw filler-less now. I forgot what this part of my body felt like naturally. And I wish I didn’t insist on getting all these top ups.
“My face has like literally completely changed since I was in my early twenties. As I’ve got older it just did not age well with me.” She added: “That’s one thing I will say about any kind of cosmetic treatments is that first of all it is so important to love yourself before you start finding ways to love yourself artificially.”
Heartbreakingly admitting she felt like she “didn’t quite fit in” with beauty standards, Zara urged her followers to take their time before undergoing any tweakments, signing off: “I think that I look back at myself wanting to have any kind of surgery or wanting to change my face because I didn’t feel like I quite fit in with the other beauty standards. And I feel sad about that.
“I feel really sad that that’s that was a feeling that I had and I feel sad that I was trying to change and adapt myself to be somebody else.” She urged: “Don’t undergo cosmetic tweakments and treatments when your face isn’t fully mature yet. Just wait and think about it and really take your time.”
