Montana Brown has opened up about her regret over having filler injected into her cheek, nose and lips which transformed her appearance.
The Love Island star, now 30, who has now had all the filler in her face dissolved, admitted she had only undergone the pricey procedures in desperate bid to combat her insecurity and to ‘look like everyone else’.
Taking to her Instagram Stories on Friday Montana shared a snap a the age of 24 with enhanced features following filler and botox, alongside a picture of her naturally beautiful face now.
She penned: ‘I don’t know who needs to hear this but you don’t need filler and botox. I remember so clearly going to clinics and asking for chin filler, cheek filler and lip filler at 24’.
‘I wanted to look like other people and I was very insecure about my appearance. I did not love myself like I should have done. It makes me so sad that I spent so much money to try and make feel more confident’.
Montana went on: ‘Now I get no filler, no botox just skin treatments and I feel so much better in my own skin.
‘Ultimately everyone has the right to do whatever they want to their face but I’m just saying you’re beautiful in your own skin, and don’t strive to look like everyone you see on Instagram as a lot of it is editing’.

Earlier this month Montana attracted criticism for her latest discourse about schools.
The reality star turned influencer told her 589k TikTok followers in a new post that she thinks she is ‘going through a quarter life crisis’ because she’s ‘petrified’ of being tied to school drop offs.
Filming from her car, Montana, who has two children Jude, two, and Miley, 16 months, said that she would not be sending her eldest son to a nursery setting and was growing more ‘panicked’ about the idea of sending him to school.
‘I don’t know if any other parents can relate to this,’ she began her video. ‘I mean I say parents but I’m going to target this at mothers because I feel like this is a mother’s issue.
‘People keep asking me “oh why don’t you have Jude in school”. I am petrified of him going to school because it means I’m tied to the school run.’
‘And I don’t know why but I’m having like a freak out. I feel like I’m questioning everything and I feel really unsettled at the minute because I feel like all my possibilities are coming crumbling down.’

Montana, who was a student studying Economics at Bournemouth University when she applied for Love Island, went on to list all the ‘possibilities’ that she feels she could be missing out on.
‘I’m like what if I want to study something. What if I want to become a doctor or something? What if I want to travel South America?’
‘All my possibilities are gone and I know that they’re not gone and I can still do those things but it feels like I can’t because, quite frankly, my kids need me.’
Montana went on to admit she was feeling ‘really panicked’ and ‘claustrophobic’ at the thought of putting her children in school in the future before asking her followers for advice.
‘I don’t know if anyone else can relate to this or if I sound clinically insane but I just feel really young, and I’ve got two children and I’ve got dependables,’ she explained.
Montana’s video was met with criticism though as many pointed out that ‘most people think about this before having kids.’
‘I don’t think you’re clinically insane, I think you’re privileged,’ wrote another. ‘Most of us mothers are studying/working whilst our children are at school? Did you not consider the school run when having a baby?’
‘You can’t deny your child an experience at school because you want to pursue your dreams. You can still have time for yourself, career etc, but yes, being a parent has to fit around them and their needs. Once they are older you can really go for it.
‘If your biggest concern in life is not being able to go on holiday to South America, then you have ZERO problems. Genuinely you’ve won the game – congrats’ posted another.
Another quipped: ‘Is your attachment style avoidant?’
