Former Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham has always been an open book about her extensive plastic surgery history.

However, her latest procedure was not for cosmetic reasons. The 35-year-old reality star shared an update with her followers after undergoing jaw surgery due to a non-consensual assault.

“After a non-consensual assault left me with serious jaw damage, I spent years suffering in silence just trying to eat, talk, breathe. I find it odd everyone says sue my doctor when I should sue the animal who did this to me. It’s in the news, and I am,” Abraham wrote on Instagram. “This double jaw surgery was planned for months — custom-molded jaws, amazing doctors, PAs, ICU nurses + engineers who built them just for me.”

She did have a sense of humor about the procedure, which left her with an extremely swollen face, adding, “TIP: Get jaw surgery before Halloween and you’ll fit right in — Frankenstein & Terminator (stitches + titanium).”

Abraham also thanked her dad and 17-year-old daughter Sophia for helping her recover. The former MTV star also made sure to remind her followers she is running for the Austin City Council, and used the experience to hopefully attract voters.

“We must STOP medical billing scams and support our doctors over the criminals who caused this,” she explained. “Twice before surgery, billing tried to charge me outside my insurance without verifying. I’m running for District 5 City Council to save YOU money on medical billing.”

In December 2022, Abraham sued former California Mayor Dominic Foppoli for sexual assault, accusing him of drugging and raping her the year prior. In September 2026, Foppoli was found liable for sexually assaulting seven other women and ordered to pay $13 million in compensatory damages. Abraham’s trial is currently scheduled to begin in February 2027.

According to Abraham, her jaw should be back to normal by January 2027.
