Priyanka Chopra has taken a trip down memory lane to when she was 19.
The Hollywood actress, 38, shared a snap from her teenage years - before an unfortunate accident during surgery saw her appearance altered.
Priyanka tells in her book that she'd sought out surgery upon finding a benign growth in her nasal cavity.
"Fortunately, a polypectomy sounded like a pretty routine procedure," she writes.
"Unfortunately, it wasn't."
Priyanka explains that the surgeon "accidentally shaved the bridge of my nose", and her bridge fell.
"My face looked completely different," she continues in the book, "I wasn't me."
The surgery lost her work, and she was fired from two movies.
"All the talk of body parts and skin tone collectively made me feel devalued and unseen and uncertain about my future," Priyanka - who's now married to Nick Jonas - adds.
"Having experienced the aftermath of a supposedly simple polyp removal, I knew I wasn't willing to follow the course he'd laid out for me, even if he, as the highly successful expert, was right.
"…My difference is my strength. If I looked like other 'classically beautiful' girls, then I wouldn't stand out, and more important, I wouldn't be me."
She sought out a number of "corrective surgeries", and the beauty queen says she's now "gotten accustomed to this face."
Meanwhile, Priyanka recently paid tribute to husband Nick, who shot to fame as a teen alongside brothers and bandmates Joe and Kevin.
Priyanka and Joe tied the knot in late 2018 in a lavish three-day wedding in Mumbai, before a fourth ceremony in North Carolina.
Nick had messaged her on Twitter as far back as 2016, and they soon found a romantic spark - Nick getting down on one knee within just two months.
"My parents were both doctors and they always said it was so great to be married to someone in the same profession, because they understood the hours and they understood the life," she told Glamour magazine.
"I feel really grateful that I'm married to someone in the same profession who understands the requirements that my job has, and also understands the creativity of it."
