Having a facial condition as a teen can be a challenge, but this inspiring girl with a facial condition rises above cruel comments and gets a flood of support.
Inma Franco has Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. This rare condition causes a premature fusing of the skull which means it affects the shape of the head and face. But Inma's not letting her difference stop her from showing her beautiful face to the world.

She posted, "The most important thing to be happy is to love yourself as it is with all its defects and insecurities. Thank you ♥ ️ and please, before commenting, think carefully about what you are going to say because you do not know how your comment may affect that person."
