A lady has finally received the life-altering operation she had always wanted after her face growth grew so huge that she would nibble on her own skin while eating.
When Starrina from Arizona appeared on Botched By Nature last night, she expressed her optimism that medical professionals might treat her facial abnormality.
Following their consultation with Drs. Paul Nassif and Terry Dubrow, Starrina discloses that she was previously diagnosed with a hemangioma by a different physician.
The stunning revelation from the medical professionals, however, is that she has really been misdiagnosed for thirty years.
“We can safely say that this is a misdiagnosis after looking at Starrina,” Dr. Nassif states.
“This is a vascular malformation, blood just sits in there in pools,” he continues, explaining that a hemangioma shrinks with age but has become bigger in Starrina’s case.
