Selena has recently mentioned in an interview that she feels comfortable with her scar. However, in the beginning, she did not feel cool about it at all and every time she stood naked in the mirror, she was reminded of her surgery, feeling bad about the way the scar looked across her abdomen. Soon though, she started questioning herself on whether or not her scar was actually a thing to worry about. Taking into account of the number of people that are not able to do stuff that she can, she began to learn how to accept herself and accept her scar. Now, she wants to have it with her, in order to remind her the kind of things she has gone through.
“There are many things I could do which are completely fine, plastic surgery, lasers and creams, but I’m OK with the scar right now.” Said Selena during her interview for Billboard. She says that she could spend the whole day judging herself, her round face, her legs, her scar, she does not have perfect abs but she feels OK with herself and she sees life every time she looks to the mirror.
