It is rare for a celebrity or public figure to come forward and discuss their experiences with plastic surgery. However, Zahid Ahmed decided that he wanted to keep his promise of being true and honest with his fans and followers and thus decided to open up about his nose job which went wrong.
Zahid started by saying that opening up about his nose job experience was hard for him because the topic is a sensitive one. But because he made his YouTube channel with the intention of being true and honest to his fans, he decided to open up and talk about this.

Zahid then went on to label his nose job a gunnah (sin), saying that it was a big mistake.
“Your ego sometimes makes you do things which are not right for you,” said the actor.
Zahid said that despite achieving great success and Allah’s countless blessings, his nose bothered him. He shared that the left side of his nose was different from the right side and that when the camera would be at a certain angle, it would make his nose look unflattering and this would irk him and make him feel conscious.
“I asked my director multiple times to change the camera’s angle, but he would tell me that I should focus on my performance and that there is nothing wrong,” said Zahid, adding that his self-criticism blinded him at that point.
Zahid said all of Allah’s creations are beautiful and only He can create perfection but because we are so involved in our own ego, we often forget that and continue to point out flaws in ourselves.
Zahid said that he had contemplated getting rhinoplasty (nose job) for a long time and then just decided to go for it.
“It’s a common procedure and everyone around the world gets it done. So I thought ‘What’s the big deal?'”
Zahid explained that the six months which follow the rhinoplasty are very sensitive and that one has to be very careful. However, following his procedure, things went down. He said that while he does not believe that someone should shed light on their sins but because the matter had become so public, he thought it would be a good idea to discuss it as well as educate his fans not to mess with the rule of Allah.
“Things can go wrong,” he asserted. “Focus on your blessings and not on your shortcomings. Don’t look for faults in your appearance.”
Zahid said after his nose job went wrong, it took him two years to get his nose back to normal. He said that he was very lucky that his work wasn’t affected by this.
“Please learn from my heartbreaking experience and don’t make the same mistakes. Allah has made you perfect and most of the time it’s only us who see these nuqs,” concluded Zahid.
