Hello perfectpixel97.
First, congratulations on your large weight loss. This is one of the most difficult things to achieve and you have done really well.
It is hard to know where on your body the weight will go from. Certainly swimming and going to the gym 3 times a week are an excellent way of maintaining your weight loss.
I suspect that your reaction to yourself as hideous and ugly reflects your current state of mind rather than how you really look.
How have people reacted to the 'new' you? I would be very surprised if they agreed with your view of yourself. I am afraid that there is no guaranteed way of changing the shape of your face except by surgery. This, as you may know, can be very expensive and can go horribly wrong.
As a boy a well trimmed beard can make all the difference. Look up 'styles of trimmed beard' on the internet. You will be overwhelmed with images that could help provide the illusion of a slimmer face. As a girl, have you tried contouring makeup? It can create an effective illusion by highlighting some areas of your face and lowlighting others. Try looking for makeup tips on You Tube.
As time passes, there is every likelihood that your face will refine which is something worth bearing in mind.
Other than that, I would suggest that you be very wary of any advertisement that promises you instant results for a very high fee. You could be wasting a great deal of money.
Please try not to judge yourself by how you look. Do you judge others only by that one criteria? Or do other things matter to you?
I would suggest that if you can afford to talk to someone face to face it may help you to come to better terms with yourself.
Finally, in the same way as your goal was to lose weight, and you suceeded by strength of character and great determination, you could set yourself another goal: to like yourself and your appearance much more than you do at the moment.
I do wish you well and I really hope you succeed in this most difficult of challenges.
