PHILIPPINES | "Hello, my name is Jenny, and I am from the Philippines. I was born with a port wine stain birthmark, and living with this kind of birthmark has been challenging. Throughout my elementary days, I faced bullying, but my journey took a positive turn when I began laser treatments at the age of 13. Seeking medical treatment not only improved my condition but also helped me understand my birthmark better, fostering self-love and acceptance. This newfound confidence inspired me to share my experiences and create content about my travels and outfits to inspire others with facial differences.

Furthermore, I recently graduated from college and am a certified bookkeeper. While I enjoy working with numbers, I am also passionate about creative pursuits such as photography and social media content. I aspire to become a content creator one day, using my platform to spread positivity and encouragement. So to all of my fellow birthmark friends, I would advise seeking medical experts or joining organizations like this because knowing your condition more can make a difference, and it might shift your mindset towards a positive path." ~ Jenny
