Russian model, Yulia Tarasevich, 43, may never smile or close her eyes again after her face was left ‘disfigured’ owing to several botched surgeries.
According to reports, the beauty queen underwent several surgeries: facelift, mini-liposuction and a blepharoplasty (cosmetic correction of the eyelids) at a clinic in Krasnodar, southern Russia in a bid to correct aging and look young.
Unfortunately for the mother of two, after speding an extra £20,000 (N11.3m) to correct the facial anomalies, it dawned on her that she couldn’t close her eyes and move large parts of her face or smile.
It is noteworthy that the 43-year-old was a runner-up in the Mrs Russia-International beauty contest in 2020.
In the wake of her predicament, The Sun UK reports that Yulia has now dragged the two doctors, Andrey Komarov and Omar Khaled involved in her original surgeries to court accusing them of malpractice.
Meanwhile, the surgeons in their defense claim that the beauty queen had a rare genetic condition called scleroderma and that it was impossible to predict and deny any responsibility for her nightmare.
The surgeons noted that Scleroderma leads to hard, thickened areas of skin and can sometimes cause problems with internal organs and blood vessels as the victim’s immune system attacks connective tissue under the skin.
