Brandi Glanville doesn’t want her fans to make the same mistakes she made when it comes to plastic surgery.
After admitting she has had “tons” of work done, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum said during a 2015 episode of Good Work.
“I’ve definitely made some mistakes, but it’s hard to watch yourself get older on television,” she admitted.
Nevertheless, the star didn’t seem to regret the “mistakes” because “there’s no shame in my game.”
Years later, the reality TV star shared pictures of her face looking visibly disfigured.
“Some Dr.’s say I have a parasite that jumps around my face. Some say it’s stress-induced edema,” she told her fans.
She eventually discovered that her breast implants were to blame for the facial disfigurement.
The implants, inserted about two decades back, had ruptured and leaked silicone inside her body, which eventually led to an infection.
“Mine had completely ruptured, and I had silicone all over my lymph nodes,” she told TMZ earlier this year.
“That’s what caused the infection in my face; it couldn't get out as my lymph nodes were all clogged,” she continued.
It took appointments with 21 doctors and “so much money” to find the cause of her facial parasite.
“I definitely had a parasite, and then I was shocked because, I mean, honestly, my implants I've had for 20 years, almost," she told the outlet.
“They looked fine. They felt fine. The mammogram said they were fine. It wasn't until I had a sonogram.”
Glanville said she learned the hard way that “you really should change your breast implants every 10 years.”
“I just didn’t do it,” she said.
She didn’t dissuade viewers from getting implants but said it’s best to be vigilant and regularly check them.
“It just sucks to age 20 years overnight,” she confessed.
