Brandi Glanville accepts Dr. Terry Dubrow‘s help amid her health issues.
Glanville, 52, has been through it abnormal swelling of the face which she claims could be due to ‘facial parasites’. However, the 66-year-old Dubrow stated that he does not believe this is the case.
“I saw one of her interviews and I saw the photo of her, the photo where she’s swollen, the photo where she’s really deflated because of the irregular skin,” says the actress. Failed doctor told TMZ on Thursday, December 12. “Here’s the thing, this is what Brandi really needs to focus on… and it’s not her fault, it’s her doctor’s fault. Brandi needs a diagnosis.”
Dubrow delivered a message to Glanville via TMZand offers to help if needed.
The reality star acknowledged his offer on Friday, December 13.
“I have no drama with @DrDubrow. I appreciate all the help I can get,” she said wrote via Xadding a praying hands emoji. “We have been in touch and plan to thank you for all the love. All fillers that were in my face have dissolved. I’ve seen the best doctors [Cedars-Sinai]’ and ‘all the doctors they referred me to.’
Glanville has been open about her health setbacks. She previously shared a photo of her facial deformities and revealed that this is the case $70,000 spent looking for a cause.
“Honestly, I have so many doctors and I’ve had so many tests… I’ve had lab work done for $10,000,” she said in an interview with Entertainment tonight published on Tuesday, December 10. “I ran every test under the sun. … They said, ‘It could be a parasite.’ That’s, you know, new.”
Glanville explained that before a doctor theorized that she might have contracted a parasite, she experienced “swelling” and “couldn’t talk.” When she sought treatment, some medical professionals suggested the problem might be due to old facial fillers that were dissolving. But Glanville stated that she had not done fillers in a while and that her older fillers had already dissolved.
Initially, Glanville identified the source as food poisoning in Morocco during filming The Real Housewives: The Ultimate Girls Trip.
Glanville told it AND that she has felt a parasite under her face. If Glanville “messes with it,” she said, it will jump to another area and look like “little bubbles bursting” on her skin.
I have zero drama with it @DrDubrow I appreciate all the help I can get. We have been in touch and plan to talk, thanks for all the love. All fillers that were in my face have dissolved. I saw the best doctors at Cedar Sinai, and all the doctors they referred me to💕

“She needs to find out if there’s a microorganism in there,” Dubrow said TMZ. “It won’t be a parasite, it won’t be something she ate, it will be something that got into her bloodstream.”
Dubrow shared his concerns about what could happen to Glanville if she doesn’t get a diagnosis as soon as possible.
‘She’s like a ticking time bomb. Every minute that microorganism remains in her skin and causes potential damage, she could suffer worse,” Dubrow added. “It could be harder to treat and she could form more scars and more lumps. So Brandi needs a diagnosis. She probably needs a surgical procedure to get a sample of tissue and find out what’s going on.”
