Danniella Westbrook says she's 'living a nightmare' and regrets going abroad for surgery

Danniella Westbrook has revealed that she regrets undergoing her fifth facial reconstruction surgery in Turkey. The former EastEnders star, 49, went under the knife last month for a surgical thread lift - a procedure where temporary stitches are used to produce a “lift” in the skin - and fat transfer in a bid to fix a past botched surgery.

“I had a surgical thread lift where they put over 1,200 threads into my face,” Danniella explained. “They were also supposed to reconstruct my nose, which is what I went there for, but they haven’t done that. They put 200 threads in my nose to straighten it, but it hasn’t worked. So I feel like I’ve wasted my time. The main thing I wanted doing was for my nose to be reconstructed.

"I’ve been waiting for nearly four years. So I’m going back to my surgeon in Liverpool to get my nose fixed. They’re going to rebuild all the bridge in my mouth and build up the front of my nose. I need to wait to heal first, but I’ll be getting it done when I can.”
