In November 2020, pro skateboarder and model Brooklinn Khoury was visiting family in Arizona when her life changed in an instant. A relative’s pit bull suddenly attacked, tearing off her entire upper lip and part of her nose. 💔🐾😢

Doctors couldn’t repair the damage immediately. In the days that followed, Brooklinn faced the mirror and saw a face she barely recognized — but inside, her spirit remained unbroken. 💪🌹

A year later, in December 2021, she began an extraordinary journey of reconstruction — at least seven surgeries so far — using skin from her arm to rebuild her lip and reshape her nose, allowing her to breathe and smile again. 🏥🩹✨

Each surgery brought both pain and progress. Yet through every scar and setback, Brooklinn chose grace over grief, courage over fear. 🌈💫

Today, she stands as a symbol of resilience and self-acceptance — reminding the world that true beauty isn’t about perfection, but the strength it takes to rise after being broken. 💖🕊️
