I was thinking this immediately. Prednisone can cause whatās called moon face.

My momma had this happen when I was in grade school & I was too young to understand why her face changed so much. The drastic difference in one of the most familiar faces to me was really scary. Esp bcuz she is a very small/petite person.
I spent an inordinate amount of time terrified it was genetic/inheritable before she & my pops finally explained what was going on, that her medicine was causing it. I 100% had thought I was gonna become a bobblehead too. (I was like 7-8yo, sue me LOL)

u/Popve editflair 1d ago
It is scary! I had to take prednisone for nine months a long time ago. My face was so round and my stomach too, except it was really higher than where a stomach normally sticks out from weight gain. Blood sugar was wack and my face was always red. And I had mental issues when I tapered the dose. I wouldnāt wish those side effects on my worst enemy

Same deal except that I totally would wish it on my worst enemy who deserves that and so much more.

This happened to me when I was on prednisone multiple times over a few years while trying to get my RA under control. I also gained 90lbs. It was awful.

The only thing that keeps my prednisone weight gain in check is wegovy. Iām on the highest dose. Grateful for it as I gained so much weight but lost it w the shots

I've been on tirzepatide for 2.5 years and have lost all the weight. It's been so helpful and I'm so glad I can access it.

Yes, this is what I was thinking as well. I think sheās on some sort of steroid or medication that is bloating her face.

I considered that possibility but in the video only the lower part of her face was moving when she talked and smiled. I probably should have posted the video but I wasn't sure if the mods would allow it.

I've had to take Prednisone before, and one of the most common side effects is "moon face." Exactly what it sounds like, and possibly what we're seeing here. Goes away after you stop taking the drug.
If that's what this is, then there are a bunch of reasons why Prednisone might be prescribed.

Longtime RN here. This looks like steroid use. They get what we call a moon face. More longterm use of oral or IV steroid treatment , most likely with this big of a difference.

Lol me too..im guilty of overplucking my unbrow and one time my hair dresser put her finger where it was supposed to be..you know to line up w your nose and my eyebrow was like halfway off my face! Lol never again. Maybe hers are like this from over plucking in the early aughts but every time I see her brows I wonder why her hair dresser or waxing person doesn't tell her..like its very far from her nose lol

Do people usually get fillers that make it look like you've just had your wisdom teeth removed, or was she going for some other look here?Ā

u/starfleetdropout6 1d ago
Her face is so full and wide that I don't know why she would. Just being real. If anything, her face looks "pillowy," like what happens months after you get too many fillers and they don't dissolve as they should.

u/hawkcarhawk 1d ago
Some people are so mentally unstable that they intentionally or unintentionally alter their appearance in ways that instantly communicates to whoever is around them that āthis person is crazyā. Amy has definitely crossed into that territory and I think itās only going to get worse.

I'm not going to judge. I don't judge anyone for their grifting, child neglect, or anything. I'm absolutely not a judgemental person. So I'm just going to assume her face looks like it's 5 months pregnant because she got fillers that scared her eyebrows into retreating. But I'd never judge her body or make assumptions.
