Blac Chyna very obviously has had a lot of work done on her body and facial fillers/injections. I didn’t think her work looked botched or anything — it seemed like she achieved the aesthetic she was going for and to her credit she did not pretend otherwise or say it was all from over-lining her lips or working out daily. Anyway, it seems like Blac Chyna is over all the stuff she’s had done. She had her boob and butt implants reduced and now she’s dissolving her facial fillers. She says the fillers made her face look like a box and she wants to go back to being Angela.
Blac Chyna is on a journey to get back to her natural self and she’s taking everyone along for the ride.
The TV personality, 34, shared her decision to remove her facial fillers and film the procedure in an eight-minute Instagram video on Thursday.
The clip, which has amassed nearly 250,000 likes as of Sunday, came just three days after Chyna revealed she’d had a breast and silicon butt implant reduction.
Speaking to camera in her latest video, Chyna, whose real name is Angela White, said that she’d heard removing facial fillers could “sting” but she wasn’t afraid because of how determined she was to remove them from her jawline and cheeks.
“Enough is enough and it all has to come out,” she said. The clip goes on to show Chyna, who shares her daughter, Dream Kardashian, with Rob Kardashian, arriving at Allure Laser & Wellness Spa in Los Angeles for the procedure.
When her doctor asked why she’d decided to remove the fillers, Chyna said that she wanted to embrace her natural looks.
“First of all, I’m tired of the look, and it’s just not flattering, it’s just not what I look like,” she said. “It totally changed my face.”
She added that she was ready to get back to “Angela,” a reference to her real name. “I feel like I’ve outgrown that, and it’s just time for a change,” she said.
Chyna explained that whenever she would get her makeup done previously, she’d feel like the character Jigsaw from the “Saw” films or like “The Mask” because of how defined her jawline and cheeks looked when contoured.
“I’d be looking like Jigsaw,” she joked, adding later in the procedure that the fillers made her face look rectangular. “It was making my face look like a box.”
While the doctor dissolved the filler, Chyna said she felt like she could see an “almost instant” difference in her face after the “easy process.”
“I’m on my journey right now, and I just want to start fresh, clean,” she said. “Shout-out to the girls who want to get fillers. We’re not saying, ‘Don’t do it.’ But just for me, I’m just kind of over the whole phase.”
Her comments reflected the views she shared in a series of videos about her butt and breast reduction.
“Honestly, I feel like that I’m past that stage. I’ve been there, done that,” she said, adding that she is “stepping into a different way.”
At what point do we start calling Blac Chyna by her real name, Angela White, again? I guess she’ll let us know. But in all seriousness, good for her for realizing she was done with that stuff and also for being completely honest about what she had done, what she was planning to do, and why she was making the change. And she’s totally right. A lot of the plastic surgery trends are not flattering and they do totally change people’s faces, and not necessarily for the better. They kind of make everyone look the same! Blac Chyna is not knocking fillers for everyone, but for herself because she feels she’s outgrown it. At least she has the option and hopefully she can get back to where she wants to be. And I really appreciate the transparency and the fact that she’s not holding up some fake natural unattainable ideal. I wish more celebs would be this honest instead of talking about Japanese potatoes and stuff.

I LOVE that she’s being completely upfront about her enhancements. Refreshing to see someone not trying to claim it’s all water and sleep.
I tried Botox for a couple of years and then let it go. Yes, the little line above my right eye bothers me, but not as much as the Botox process did. It felt like my forehead drooped for weeks afterwards and it made it hard to emote. I tried 2 different dermatologists and had multiple conversations about what I wanted but I just ended up looking like every other ATL 40 year old and honestly? I’ll take the forehead wrinkles.
I think she looks beautiful with them removed but this level of covering up and change when “finding god” is usually time to some highly fanatical or cult level religion. I hope for her sake it’s not. Religious trauma is no walk in the park
I don’t really know much about her (I don’t watch the Kardashian stuff, just read here!) but I like her talking about doing this and her reasons why. We don’t hear as much about people undoing procedures like boob jobs and fillers. This was a good conversation!
Also she is beautiful without fillers!
I’m not really surprised by this- I really noticed at the Oscars in a slideshow of pics, the Kardashians (and Xtina) were the only ones sporting that heavy, contoured, mask-like makeup. Fresh and natural is coming back in style!
I love a good rebrand. I’m curious to see the final results are and where she’s going to take this. I don’t for a minute think this is simply about being sick of the look. There is more to this. Even if it just about there being too many influencers looking like her these days. The market is saturated with her type.
Considering how she was perfectly fine playing into colorism and selling skin-bleaching products in Africa- you are probably right.
Thank you for mentioning her very recent history. Selling anti black products and stoking anti-blackness in Black women and men.
She looks better without all that crap. She looks human again, and like a beautiful indivudual at that, as opposed to a freaky clone.
Wow! What a transformation! She is beautiful, and I hope she keeps this look.
She looks so much better already without them.
I just heard a segment on the rise of reductions and removals. Women everywhere are opting for au natural (I doubt, however, there’ll be a huge drop in visits). Men are now opting to have their jaws broken to rebuild their jawlines.
On a podcast? I would love to listen.
She does look great. This is part of the “snatched” movement, I think, that has women removing their fillers (and buccal fat).
It’s exhausting to have to think about what’s “in” and “out” in style/fashion and as I get older (46 here!) I just want to look like the best version of myself. My face is my face, I’m not someone who is up for surgical or injectible interventions, so I want what I’ve got to please me visually. I think less is more with makeup for virtually everyone. I get my hair colored because it makes me feel better, but I also appreciate women who proudly rock their natural color. I know what clothing colors and silhouettes work for my figure and coloring, and I don’t care what the “trend” is.
Faces and bodies shouldn’t be “in” or “out.” It’s just noise, distracting us from how powerful we could be if we focused. Now I will go sit on the “get off my lawn” bench for a nap. #old
I am generally a “you do you” kind of person. If botox/fillers/surgeries make a person feel better, great.
But it’s gross that we now have trending FACES. I know that trends have always existed to an extent, but it was more like certain models or actresses would be popular because of their more or less natural looks. Small boobs/flappers in the 20s, buxom bombshells in the 50s, the late 80s Amazonian super models vs the 90s waifs, Etc.
And yes, people did get some surgery in all those decades. But we are now in a situation where individual people are changing their bodies back and forth to follow said trends. THAT IS ABSURD.
I can absolutely understand that we all have a feature that we don’t love, and it can be great for someone to get surgery to “fix” it, if that is how they feel. But to do these things constantly, to follow trends back and forth? It’s creepy. This isn’t so much aimed at Blac Chyna. I think she looks better without the filters, and she seems to agree. I can understand changing your mind and reversing something, but it sounds like a lot of people are doing it to be on trend and it just seems needlessly reckless. When does it end?
Their was a film that came out in 2008, a campy rock opera called Repo the Genetic Opera. Paris Hilton had a role in it, she played a rich girl who was addicted to plastic surgery and the drugs they used to anesthetize her whilst having them. She had a different look in every scene. This was meant to be a crazy future dystopia and yet, 15 years later we are living it.
I just googled this snatched jawline thing and I never knew about it! Personally I think it looks good from what I can see on Google (I dislike the fat under my chin and would love that look) but I am probably not ever going to do plastic surgery. It does seem to change the face dramatically! Versus buccal fat removal–I don’t think that looks good.
I am envious of my husband. Regardless of any weight fluctuations, his beautiful jawline could cut glass. His is “snatched” naturally. LOL
Her new face looks like she had buccal fat removal. I guess that’s the “in” look.
ama1977, I’m here to tell you that you are still a baby. You are not old, but in your prime. Embrace your beautiful.
Thank you so much!! I don’t know if you’ll see this, but you made me smile today. Thank you for your kind words.
