"I remember waking up and seeing everything… and then I just started to have this dry mouth and couldn't breathe and went back under,'" Symoné shared on "The Best Podcast Ever with Raven and Miranda."
"Just knowing that the reason I opened my eyes and couldn’t swallow or breathe was because I was having a seizure, remembering that moment but not remembering the seizure… still freaks me out."
After her first procedure, the "That’s So Raven" star said she had to return to the plastic surgeon for another operation since she continued to "gain weight."

She continued, "It was just a mess, just being that young and the pain of it all.’"

Despite Symoné going under the knife multiple times, she was still criticized for the way she looked and dealt with being body-shamed.
