Failed surgeon warns Brandi Glanville urgently, shares new theory about her ‘parasitic’ face
The failed star Dr. Terry Dubrow has shared his concerns about Brandi Glanville’s disturbing claim that her recent facial disfigurement could have been caused by a ‘parasite’.
Dubrow, 66, threw cold water on Glanville’s “parasite” theory, thinking instead that her disfigured skin and sunken cheeks were likely the result of an infection, he said. TMZ on Thursday.
The plastic surgeon stressed that Glanville’s condition could be a “ticking time bomb” and urged her to seek help from her doctors as soon as possible.
The 52-year-old Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills alumna — who previously revealed she had been diagnosed with stress-induced angioedema — shared a photo last week of her looking unrecognizable, mainly due to her deflated, mottled cheeks.
Months earlier, she had the opposite problem when she shared a photo of herself with significantly swollen cheeks.
Dubrow added that in his opinion, the most important thing is that a doctor gives her a clear diagnosis so she can treat the root problem.

Dubrow, 66, threw cold water on Glanville’s “parasite” theory and instead thought her disfigured skin and sunken cheeks were likely the result of an infection, he told TMZ on Thursday.
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 an “infectious process” or a “foreign body reaction to something she had injected.” ‘
Dubrow also clarified that Glanville is not “at fault” because he wasn’t sure what was plaguing her, and instead blamed her doctor for not having a solid diagnosis and treatment plan.
However, he seemed pretty sure that what was wrong with her was “not a parasite” and “didn’t come from anything she ate.”
Instead, he suggested the problem was “something that entered her bloodstream and seeded a foreign body.”
Surprisingly, Dubrow even thought it was possible that Glanville would get ahead of her doctors, saying she could be right when she said she might have to have surgery.
He noted that she may have been infected with mycobacteria or fungi, which could be “very difficult to treat.”
Dubrow seemed particularly concerned when he said Glanville’s condition was “like a ticking time bomb” as the potential damage could become increasingly serious in a short time.
He added that antibiotic treatments for mycobacteria or fungi can last 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.

Glanville went to the hospital to see several doctors.
“Honestly, I’ve had so many doctors and so many tests…I’ve had lab work done for $10,000. I’ve run every test under the sun…. 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 and some of it was meat. In Morocco,” she offered.

Last week, she shared a photo of her puffy complexion over the summer.
She wrote on X: ‘What happened? I wish I knew that I have been in and out of the hospital this past year. I’ve spent almost every dollar I have trying to find out.
‘Some doctors say I have a parasite jumping around my face. Some say it is stress-induced edema. Personally, I say it’s Bravo.’

She wrote on X: ‘I read that I was not punished for the false accusations in Morocco. Um, I was fired, removed from the cast who were held hostage in a hotel in Morocco for days! The cast that sided with me did not want to continue without me.
‘Because of the bad and untrue press I have been cut from all jobs.
“I have no choice but to sue Bravo. I have four days’ worth of receipts. This stress has ruined my health. I have angioedema due to uncontrollable stress. I haven’t worked in six months. I’m too depressed to do my podcast to swell 4cameo or OF. I’m being used as Fallguy.
“I SO desperately WANT to tweet all my receipts but my lawyers won’t let me. I appreciate all your support more than you know. MY CAST FROM MOROCCO IS SO AMAZING AND SUPPORTIVE. I LOVE THOSE GIRLS! (sic)’
