Brandi Glanville has revealed she has had all her face fillers dissolved after facing health issues. The 52-year-old former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star claimed earlier this month that she had a "parasite" moving around her face while explaining why she looked disfigured. She left her followers in disbelief this week when she posted a photo of her face - and her fans didn't even recognise her.
In an update posted on Friday, Brandi had all of her face fillers dissolved in an attempt to solve her health issues. Writing on X, formerly called Twitter, she also addressed Botched's Dr Terry Dubrow's public offer to help her treat her facial problems. Brandi wrote: "I have zero drama with @DrDubrow I appreciate all the help I can get.
We have been in touch and plan to talk thank you for all the love. All fillers that were in my face have been dissolved. I have seen all the best doctors at Cedar Sinai and all the doctors they referred me to.
" The TV star previously claimed her former employer - US TV network Bravo - was to blame for her facial disfigurement. During the summer, she took to X to announce that stress was causing havoc on her appearance. "This is why I'm miserable and depressed," she wrote, sharing a selfie of herself that showed her left cheek severely swollen and bruised.
"I'm not even gonna share the picture of when it sinks in. Stress will kill you. How is your wealth? Take care of yourself people thank you Bravo.
I couldn't even work if I wanted to at this point." Brandi first began experiencing these symptoms around October 2023, when she had to be rushed to the hospital after her face blew up, eyes swelled shut and she collapsed. Since then, she has spent over $70,000 (£55,450) to try and rectify the situation.
After exhausting all other routes to the problem, a fan recommended that she should reach out to Dr Dubrow - one of the leading plastic and reconstructive surgeons in America. The doctor then shared his opinion on her condition, telling TMZ that her misshapen skin and sunken cheeks were more likely the result of an infection. He suggested that there could well be a parasite under her skin.
He also said the condition was a "ticking time bomb", as he urged her to get help from her doctors as soon as possible. The doctor added that he was "deeply concerned" that Brandi could be suffering from either an "infectious process" or a "foreign-body reaction to something she's had injected." He added that antibiotic treatments for mycobacteria or fungus could take six to 12 months, so it would be essential for her to get a solid diagnosis an a skin sample to determine what she was suffering from.
It comes after Brandi said: "I've been on meds this whole year. I don't socialize. I don't go out and I'm just spending all of my money on trying to figure out what's wrong with me, over $70,000.
Honestly, I have so many doctors and I've had so many tests ...
I did lab work for $10,000. I ran every test under the sun..
.. They're like, it could be a parasite that's, you know, new.
