Priyanka Chopra Jonas opened up about botched cosmetic procedure that significantly impacted her mental health. In interview with Howard Stern, she talked about how botched nose surgery affected her confidence and mental health. Surgery was performed in early 2000s when doctors recommended removing polyp in her nasal cavity.

Chopra Jonas described it as dark phase in her life, where she fell into deep depression. Aftermath of surgery was so bad that she was fired from three different movies and she thought her acting career was over before it even started. “It was tough time. I went into deep, deep depression. It affected me emotionally, physically, everything.”

However, her dad who is doctor himself encouraged her to get corrective surgery done. He offered to be in room with her and held her hands throughout surgery. Her father’s support helped her regain confidence and she started to build back her career. Doctor accidentally shaved off bridge of her nose while removing polyp, resulting in collapsed bridge. “My original nose was gone. My face looked completely different. I wasn’t me anymore,” she said.–Agencies
