Indy Clinton has clapped back at trolls after receiving harsh criticism over her new nose after undergoing a rhinoplasty.
The social media influencer, 27, took to TikTok on Saturday to defend the results of her surgery, saying that it’s only been ‘two weeks’ since she went under the knife.
‘I know I look crazy guys, it’s only been two weeks,’ she told her fans in a video, which showed the mother-of-three sporting a glowy makeup look.
‘I’m still numb but everything will drop slowly,’ she said, before adding, ‘Well, I hope it drops because I have a photo shoot in April.’
‘But I think it takes four to six weeks for your tip to drop and […] the swelling to go down and then another year for all the rest of the swelling to slowly go down,’ she added.
‘That’s what I’m telling myself anyway. If that’s not the case, don’t wanna hear it.

Speaking of her time in the cast, she said it was the ‘longest twelve days of my life’ but she was happy with her ‘super natural’ results
‘I have a lot of swelling obviously on the outside, but also internally which is making my nostrils look uneven so that’s fantastic.’
‘It’s going down everyday,’ she said of the swelling, adding that it was ‘so much worse’ and she’s been sleeping with little splints in her nostrils to help the healing.

Fans flooded the comments section with support.
‘Looks great! Stunning as always,’ one said.
‘I’ve had rhinoplasty and it def takes ages for swelling to go down and I taped it every night for 2 months. You look good for 2 weeks post op it’s going to look amazing,’ another added.
‘You look beautiful before and beautiful now. Do not worry about the bad comments they are just jealous,’ one more said.
‘I hate how negative everyone is being. I LOVE your nose and it suits your face perfectly,’ yet another commented.
‘It’s not THAT different from your nose before surgery the way everyone’s going crazy it’s just tip work.’
The influencer revealed back in February that she would be undergoing a nose job
It comes after Indy hit back at trolls last week that likened her to Michael Jackson following the procedure.
The TikTok star had been criticised for covering her face, like the late pop star, and not showing the aftermath of the surgery.
Indy posted a video of herself wearing a bandage on her nose as she sat drinking a smoothie in her garden and responded to a comment which read: ‘Ok weird – MJ vibes now.’
‘Don’t get me wrong, been there done that (Rhinoplasty) Yet for someone so transparent… can’t even ‘hear’ because of your obscurity,’ the troll added.
Indy, who is known for her real-life content and raw portrayal of motherhood on social media, clapped back in the post.
‘Just because I’m transparent doesn’t mean I need to show myself with bruised eyes, a swollen face, blood crusted stitches and my greasy hair,’ she said.
‘I made a choice not to show my recovery for many reasons, but the reason which bothers me the most, is the fact it bothers YOU so much.’
Indy revealed back in February that she would be undergoing a nose job.
She told her two million followers the surgery was to correct an injury she suffered while surfing in 2020.
‘I don’t want to promote this and I don’t want to sound like I’m promoting this because I’m doing it for myself,’ she said.
‘I am getting my nose done next month. A rhinoplasty surgery. I don’t know if I’m going to post my recovery. I haven’t decided yet.
‘I’m not trying to monetise off this or anything. I genuinely just want to get it done, recover, and move on with my life.’
