Girl, 16, has face lift, raises awareness
Updated | By Damon Beard
Zara is sharing her story with the world hoping to raise awareness for others like her.

If I had been told that a 16-year-old girl was going to have a facelift, I'd think it was absurd!
But my heart went out to this same girl who is now 20 and suffers from a rare condition that makes her look decades older than she actually is.
She's now creating awareness for others like her who are often mistaken for woman in their forties.

Zara was ecstatic about her new look and started to exude confidence, even inspiring her mom to undergo the same procedure to help her also look her real age.
Unfortunately, Zara’s world came crashing down because four years since her surgery, her facelift is slowly failing.
