has revealed that a cosmetic surgery that went wrong had a severe impact on her mental health. During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, the 40-year-old actress explained that a botched nose surgery in the early 2000s led to her face looking completely different, causing her to enter a deep depression. She was later fired from three movies and thought her acting career was over.

Her father, a doctor, encouraged her to get corrective surgery, which helped her regain her confidence. Chopra Jonas had previously shared details about the botched surgery in her memoir, Unfinished, where she wrote that the results left her feeling devastated and hopeless. The aftermath of the surgery was made even more difficult by the media giving her a nickname, “Plastic Chopra,” and she ultimately had multiple corrective surgeries. Now, Chopra Jonas feels like her “nose normalized” and has made peace with her appearance, stating that while she may be flawed, she is still herself.
