Not only did he suffer from "emotional distress" but also heavy "economic losses". For this Linda Evangelista, the Canadian super model "disfigured" by the side effects of a cosmetic treatment, is asking for $ 50 million in compensation from the responsible company.
The 56-year-old supermodel told her drama on social media: five years ago she underwent a very special aesthetic treatment. This is "CoolSculpting" (cryolipolysis) which causes a non-invasive reduction of body fat through localized skin cooling.
But something went wrong: the fat cells increased, they did not shrink, making her "unrecognizable" and preventing her from doing her job like so many other colleagues, from Claudia Schiffer to Naomi Campbell. The model on Instagram explained that she underwent other painful surgeries to no avail, but it was all in vain.
A situation that threw her into a deep depression and suffering, pushing her to live like a recluse: “I'm so tired of living like this - she said -. I want to get rid of this sense of shame, I want to leave the house walking with my head held high even if I no longer look like myself ".
To begin with, she is now asking for super compensation from the company that provided her with the treatment and which, according to her, did not give her a cent after the disaster, apart from reimbursement for a campaign before the beauty treatment. At that time he had had to give up appearing in public. He couldn't imagine that soon he would never do it again.
