The purpose of this paper is to examine the narratives of a woman participating in a self-help group for those with a facial disfigurement. I examine the process of how she temporally constructs and reconstructs a narrative identity based on appearance by make comparison with stories about facial surgery and love affairs. In so doing, I particularly emphasize that narrative identity is not something static but rather a changeable construct in which “the present is the conclusion.”
