The TV Personality Gave Healing A Shot With Plastic Surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow

Glanville had a brief moment of improvement last year thanks to Dr. Dubrow's intervention for her facial issues, which are tied to a mysterious illness. 

However, her condition has since worsened. Dr. Dubrow recently provided an update, noting that a permanent solution has yet to be found despite ongoing efforts.

He mentioned that Glanville will undergo a surgical tissue sampling in hopes of uncovering the root cause of her symptoms. After initially hesitating to seek his help, Glanville fully trusted Dr. Dubrow, particularly after her December miracle under his supervision.

She was eager to showcase her positive results on Instagram, where she confidently posed in a hot pink bikini while enjoying a cocktail.

The Socialite Noted That Her Sickness Cost Her Valuable Social And Romantic Connections 

The New York Times best-selling author emphasized that her decision to collaborate with him was based on his expertise in plastic surgery and medical challenges. She also declared her openness to working with more qualified professionals who can accurately diagnose her condition.

This change in Glanville's perspective about Dubrow is significant, especially since she had previously considered him unsuitable for her needs. Last December, she declined his assistance, largely due to the overwhelming prospect of a five-year recovery period.

Glanville admitted that the long recovery timeframe was daunting, revealing on her podcast, "Brandi Glanville Unfiltered," that her facial issues had slowed down her social life and intimate relationships for over a year.

"Five years is way too long for me to wait. I have things to do, places to go, and people to date. I haven't had sex since last October. I haven't kissed or made out with anyone. I haven't really socialized," she explained.

For the reality TV veteran, time is of the essence when addressing her current health condition. Based on Dubrow's analysis, Glanville's facial disfigurement could be linked to microorganisms that entered her bloodstream through an injection.

He emphasized the urgent need for medical intervention, referring to her situation as a "ticking time bomb." In respect to this, Glanville spoke about her appearance's negative impact on her ability to work.

Dubrow warned that the longer these harmful microorganisms remained in her system, the more severe the potential damage to her face would be, risking extensive scarring and nodules throughout her body. He finally offered to assist her in finding a trustworthy doctor if she encountered difficulties.
