Krysta Carson, a 52-year-old from Seattle, Washington, recently shared a harrowing experience with dermal fillers that left her nostril detached and her face permanently disfigured.
In her quest to combat the signs of aging, Krysta underwent a routine filler session that went horribly wrong, causing her flesh to die and “melt off” just two weeks later.
Despite having received Botox treatments for nearly two decades, Krysta decided to address smile lines that led to her being mistaken for her husband’s mother.

Little did she know that a seemingly routine injection in 2020 would lead to necrosis in the skin inside her mouth, nose, and around her left nostril.
Shocking images reveal the extent of the damage, with Krysta’s entire nostril turning black and rotted before eventually falling off.
The once thriving entertainer, with a career spanning 30 years, found herself in despair as the disfigurement shattered her confidence and livelihood.
Despite her doctor’s reassurances that she would be fine within six weeks, Krysta’s condition worsened, leading to a traumatic Halloween day in 2020 when her left nostril detached, leaving her in shock and terror.
Krysta’s story serves as a cautionary tale about the potential dangers of dermal fillers. In a bid to raise awareness, she has shared her prosthetics journey on TikTok, using makeup and jewelry to conceal the scars while warning others about the risks associated with cosmetic procedures.
The once vibrant model and singer faced a rude awakening when a reconstructive surgeon confirmed that her lost tissue wouldn’t grow back.
Unable to afford reconstructive surgery, Krysta has been wearing a prosthetic nostril for over two years, highlighting the long-lasting impact of a single, misguided injection.
