Depending on how I interpret what you wrote, I reach either a negative or positive conclusion.

To start with the negative:

She's basically fooling herself. She's avoiding the real problem of "not accepting herself for who she is, abd changing what can be changed"

IMO, The filtr only shows her a big lie, merely suppressing the pain, and not helping solve the real psychological problem.

On the positive hand, the filter allowed her to break a deeply-ingrained false belief about he past, which helps with one's healing journey.

The question is: does she believe her current looks are pretty?

Yeah I think there needs to be some serious research here to answer these questions.
