I Look Like Me 8-10 years ago, Me 6-3 years ago looks like a different person

I know this sounds really out there, but please hear me out, for some reason since mid/late 2020, I started looking like my teenage self, I am an adult. I am just 24 now, but since some point in 2020 i began to notice I just looked better and also...different like my face looked familiar yet unfamiliar.

Last year I found an old Six Flags card that a had a picture of me from late 2012, and I realized it looked alot like how I look now, like ALOT. I went in a storage box at my parents' house and found a thumbdrive I had from 2011-early 2014, I saw pictures of myself from 10 to 8 years ago (which I hadn't seen in about that long) and noticed how much like my old self I look.

From late 2014 to maybe early 2020 I looked like another person, my eyes looked different, my hair looked different (not due to stylization, just how it grew), my face, etc. It wasn't makeup or anything either, not was there a noteable weight difference, I was about the same height... the difference is in the face in a way i struggle to convey without doxxing myself with actual pics.

I showed a friend (who I've never talked to about this or anything ME related) in my college class a couple pics of me age 14 or 15 - 18 and told them it was me about 8 or 10 years ago and they said "hmm your face hasn't changed all these years somehow", then I showed them a couple pics of me from 2015-2019 and they said "WOAH, what? that's you??" I just responded with "yeah i know, wierd right?" And class begun, but they still were processing the surprise.

I just thought y'all would wanna know
