Anastasia Pokreshchuk has risen to fame thanks to her massive cheeks, which she claims are the biggest in the world. However, she wasn’t born with the extreme cheekbones
A model who believes she has the “world’s biggest cheeks” looked unrecognisable 10 years ago.
Anastasia Pokreshchuk posted a throwback picture of herself on Instagram and admitted she was “very different” back then. Instead of dyeing her hair pink, wearing heavy makeup or going under the knife, she seemed to prefer a much more understated appearance.
In fact, the Ukrainian woman scraped her hair back off her face to celebrate her natural beauty. She looked comfortable in jeans and a loose-fitting top, which is a more simple outfit choice than you’d see her in today.
Anastasia’s old photo has garnered more than 5,200 likes on Instagram since it was posted – and plenty of people rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts.
One wrote: “You were very beautiful without interventions. Nowadays, few women accept themselves. Very sorry, but you need to find beauty in the way you are.”
Another agreed, writing: “You were such a beautiful woman before you started with all your fillers.”
And a third added: “Anastasia, I am in no way criticising you but you were a beauty without interference. Appreciate yourself!”
Even though many said they prefer Anastasia’s original look, others are in love with her more extreme appearance nowadays.
One gushed: “You have always been a beautiful person but now you have become even more beautiful and brighter.”
A second said: “I really like what you are now. Charming and incredible.” Meanwhile, another added: “I like it better now.”
No matter what fans think, the 36-year-old seems to prefer her cosmetically enhanced looks.
Her journey started a decade ago, when she got her first face filler at 26. The procedures probably looked quite natural initially, but they soon started stacking up.
After months under the needle, the influencer’s cheekbones started jutting from her face. She also got lip filler and Botox injected into her forehead.
The model has had veneers fitted to create her signature pearly white smile, as well as booking sessions to smooth out her skin.
Due to her eye-popping curves, she’s also rumoured to have had a Brazilian butt lift and boob job done in the past.
While some aren’t keen on her new look, the Instagram star loves it.
Previously, she revealed: “After I had the injections and saw the changes in my cheeks, I fell in love with them… I understand that they look weird for other people but I don’t mind.”
