A Muslim aspiring model Resham Khan and her cousin Jameel Mukhtar were attacked with acid in a parked car on the eve of the model's 21st birthday in June. The incident made headlines over the world, and the model was left with "life-changing" injuries.

However, two months later, the model took to Twitter and shared latest pictures after going through a harrowing ordeal of coping with her injuries.

Resham shared her pictures on Eid, and there are no visible signs of facial injuries as opposed to her previous pictures which surfaced after the attack.



The brave 21-year-old student had been documenting her recovery on social media and her blog and posted a picture of her face after months of painful recovery. In July, she mentioned how she was even afraid to walk to a local shop.

"Today  I was too petrified to walk to my local shop. Too scared to face the world. Too scared of the looks I might get. To scared to tackle the question “how are you”. Just too scared. That’s all I’ve been. Terrified and reluctant. My life on pause, frozen with fear," she wrote on her blog.

It also seems as if the model has gained back her lost confidence and is now moving on. She tweeted, "When you're raring to go on a night out but the taxi man has smooth radio on. Kills my vibe everytime."
