However, she managed to get hold of a bottle of silicone and a syringe to self-inject but when that ran out she resorted to use cooking oil. Her face was so altered that her own parents did not recognise her and local children also used to call her 'standing fan' because her face was so large compared to her small body. Numerous operations paid for by donations have managed to reduce the size of her face and neck but she is still significantly disfigured. Recently the former model was working in a recycled clothes shop, called The Beautiful Shop, and receiving handouts from the state.
