The movie revolves around the story of a young girl named Rosanna (Maritoni Fernandez) who was born with a severe facial deformity. She was shunned and ridiculed by her peers in society, causing her to be withdrawn and lonely.

Despite her difficult circumstances, Rosanna finds a job in a shoe factory where she meets Jaime, played by Cesar Montano. Jaime is hardworking and charismatic, and he takes a special interest in Rosanna, helping her overcome her fears and become more confident in herself. They eventually fall in love, but their relationship is challenged by Jaime's mother who is against their love affair.

Meanwhile, Christopher De Leon plays the role of Dr. David Henares, a renowned plastic surgeon who is known for restoring the confidence of patients with facial deformities. He encounters Rosanna in his clinic and offers her a chance at a new life by offering to perform plastic surgery on her. The operation is successful, and Rosanna is transformed into a beautiful young woman, which changes everything around her.

Rosanna soon gets caught up in the attention she receives with her new looks, and she gets arrogant and forgets about her old life.
