Brandi Glanville shows her face in public for first time after having her facial fillers dissolved
Brandi Glanville showed her face in public for the first time since she revealed she had all of her facial fillers dissolved.
The former Real Housewives star attended Twitch streamer Amouranth’s Winter Wonderland birthday party in Burbank.
Brandi looked festive in a leopard accented Santa hat, paired with a leopard pattern furry coat with a black dress and thigh-high boots.
Her appearance comes after TMZ reported that plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow connected with her on the phone over the weekend to discuss how to repair her face.
The outlet reported that Dr. Dubrow may recommend surgery, but first needs to take a sample of her facial tissue to see what it is in order to make the right diagnosis and treatment plan.
Brandi shocked fans last week when she posted of her face, claiming that her recent facial disfigurement may be caused by a ‘parasite.’

The 52-year-old Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills alumna — who previously revealed she had diagnosed with stress-induced angioedema — shared a photo last week in which she looked unrecognizable, particularly due to her deflated, mottled cheeks.
Months earlier, she had the opposite issue when she shared a photo of herself with significantly swollen cheeks.
Dr. Dubrow had told TMZ last week that he didn’t think it was a ‘parasite,’ but instead thought her misshapen skin and sunken cheeks were more likely the result of an infection.
The plastic surgeon emphasized that Glanville’s condition could be a ‘ticking time bomb,’ and had urged her to get help from her doctors as soon as possible.
The cosmetic surgeon — who is married to Real Housewives Of Orange County star Heather Dubrow — said he was ‘concerned’ that Glanville could be suffering from either an ‘infectious process’ or a ‘foreign-body reaction to something she’s had injected.’
Dubrow also clarified that Glanville isn’t at ‘fault’ for not being certain about what is plaguing her, and he instead blamed her doctor for not having a solid diagnosis and treatment plan.
However, he seemed fairly certain that whatever was going on with her is ‘not a parasite’ and is ‘not from something she ate.’
Instead, he suggested the issue is ‘something that got into her bloodstream and seeded some foreign body.’
Surprisingly, Dubrow even thought it was possible that Glanville could be ahead of her doctors, as he said she could be right that she might require surgery.
He noted that she could have been infected with either mycobacteria or fungi, which could be ‘very difficult to treat.’

Dubrow looked particularly concerned when he said Glanville’s condition was ‘like a ticking time bomb,’ because the potential damage could get more and more severe in a short period of time.
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 and possibly a skin sample to determine what she was suffering from.
Dubrow concluded the interview by offering the services of himself and his Botched costars.
One day later, Brandi shut down any rumors that both she and Dr. Dubrow were feuding – and explained on X that they have already been ‘in touch.’
‘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.’
She then revealed to her followers, ‘All fillers that were in my face have been dissolved. I have seen all the best doctors at cedar Sinai,&all the doctors they referred me to.’
The cover girl also spoke with Entertainment Tonight‘s Brice Sander about her recent issue with her face.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills veteran told Brice that she thought it could be a potential face parasite from Mexico.

During the time of the interview, the ex-wife of actor Eddie Cibrian said she treating it with a ‘cell sound procedure’ and the help of Dr. Nicholas Nikolov.
Before, she has claimed to have stress-induced angioedema and said she has lost five teeth.
‘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,’ she told ET.
Glanville has been going to the hospital to see a variety of doctors.
‘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.’
Brandi thinks she knows how she contracted the potential parasite.
‘I mean, we had food sitting out for hours on end and some of it was meat. In Morocco,’ she offered.
‘Six months after I got back from [filming in] Morocco, I started having this speaking thing and the swelling up thing, it started in July and we’re still here trying to figure it out.’
Earlier this month, she shared an image of her swollen complexion over the summer.
She wrote on X: ‘What happened? I wish I knew I’ve been in and out of the hospital this passed year 1/2 spent almost every dollar I have trying to figure it out.
‘Some Dr.’s say I have a parasite that jumps around my face. Some say it’s stress induced edema. I personally say it’s Bravo.’
Earlier this year, Brandi took to Twitter to blame the channel for her ‘stress induced angio-edema’ which she claimed had left her unable to work.
Also on Friday, Brandi shut down any rumors that both she and Dubrow were feuding – and explained on X that they have already been ‘in touch’
He added that antibiotic treatments for mycobacteria or fungus could take six to 12 months, so there was no time to waste. Dubrow also offered the services of his Botched colleagues
