A woman whose face was left disfigured after she received black market injections from a self-proclaimed ‘physician’ has finally had the cement nodules removed from underneath her skin after more than a decade of living with the damage that was once deemed untreatable.
Rajee Narinesingh, a 48-year-old transgender woman from Hollywood, Florida, who received harmful injections made up of cement and tire sealant in her cheeks, chin, and lips at a ‘pumping party’ in 2005, met with Los Angeles-based surgeons Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif for the second time on Tuesday’s season premiere of the E! reality series Botched.
The day we graduate medical school we say, “Doctor do no harm.” Rajee has never been offered a surgical solution because the risks outweigh the potential benefits,’ Dr. Dubrow explained of the reason why he and Dr. Nassif turned Rajee away last year.

Rajee was one of the victims of ‘toxic tush’ doctor Oneal Ron Morris, who performed illegal plastic surgeries using substances such as Fix-a-Flat, Super Glue and mineral oil.
After the life-changing injections, Rajee was left with a face that was filled with hard lumps, but she felt too embarrassed to go to the authorities.
Rajee turned to Dr John Martin of Coral Gables Cosmetic Reconstructive Surgery in 2012 for treatment of the harmful procedure, and she was given softening injections and laser therapy.
Hoping to finally have the cement nodules removed from her face, Rajee appeared on Botched in 2015, but she was turned away after her consultation because Dr. Dubrow and Dr. Nassif felt it was ultimately safer to leave her face as it was.
However, just a year later, the doctors were ready to give Rajee’s face another look because Dr. Dubrow desperately wanted to help her, however, Dr. Nassif was admittedly still skeptical that it couldn’t be done.
