Virginia’s journey to a new smile was anything but easy—but it was worth it. After getting braces in March 2023, she underwent double jaw surgery and shared every step of her recovery on TikTok. Her raw honesty and stunning transformation captivated millions—her video racked up over 75 million views and 3 million likes.
The surgery left her swollen, on a liquid diet, and in pain—but Virginia pushed through. “I’m now about 3 months and 3 weeks post-op and feeling better every day,” she said in an update.
Her followers cheered her on, praising her strength and glowing post-surgery smile. “You look amazing,” one wrote. “I can see the happiness in your face.”
Despite setbacks like an infection, Virginia’s biggest moment came 4.5 months later—when she finally got her braces off. Now, she feels healthier, more confident, and proud of the transformation she worked so hard for.
