‘Botched’ Doc: Brandi Glanville to Blame for Swollen Face

“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum has her own theory for the disfigurement, but a TV doctor disagrees.

A doctor has rubbished Brandi Glanville’s scary medical theory about her “deflated” face, saying he’s concerned about an infection that started via an injection. The 52-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum claims doctors told her that it may have been caused by “a parasite that jumps around my face.” But Dr. Terry Dubrow, from Botched, has said he’s “concerned about an infectious process”. He told TMZ: “It’s an infectious process or a foreign body reaction to something she’s had injected.” A foreign body reaction is the response of biological tissue to any foreign material in the tissue, despite it often being inert and nontoxic, according to ScienceDirect.com Dubrow added: “Brandi needs a diagnosis... she has to figure out if there’s a microorganism in there. It’s not gonna be a parasite, it’s not gonna be something she ate... it’s going to be something that got into her bloodstream though, and seeded some foreign body.” Dubrow thinks Glanville either has a micro bacterium, a type of bacteria, or a fungus, a type of organism.
