Did Bret Michaels Undergo Face Transplant? Plastic Surgery
Bret Michaels probably underwent a face transplant.
Reportedly, in 1994, he had a car accident that seriously injured him, including facial fractures. Seemingly, he had plastic surgery on his nose and jawline to fix the wound.
Likewise, many of his fans are curious to know why he always wears a bandana in public. They even speculate about him hiding his huge forehead scar. But, it seems the theories were wrong as some of Bret’s pictures without bandana don’t show any marks. Similarly, many people believe that he wears a wig.
The differences in his before and after photos are why many think he underwent plastic surgery. At 58 years of age, he probably will get botox injections or even a facelift.
Bret Michaels Head Injury Details
On 7 June 2009, Bret Michaels got a head injury during his opening performance at the 63rd Tony Awards.
Reportedly, a large portion of the set struck him on the head, knocking him down. While he was ending his performance with Poison and exiting to the stage rear, the incident occurred. As a result, he had a broken nose.
After suffering numbness on his body’s left side, Bret became hospitalized on 20 May 2010. A diagnosis discovered a hole in his heart, patent foramen ovale (PFO). However, his condition was operable and treatable. That year, he underwent an emergency appendectomy.
Furthermore, doctors also diagnosed the reason behind the transient ischemic attack (TIA). They believed his brain hemorrhage of a few weeks earlier to be the culprit. This incident led him to file a lawsuit against Tony Awards and CBS, claiming the former head injury caused the internal bleeding.
However, the parties agreed to settle the lawsuit for an unrevealed amount on 14 May 2012. Michael said thanks to the Barrow Neurological Institute, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center, Phoenix, for saving his life.
Then, low blood sugar caused him to leave the stage in the middle of a performance in May 2014. Afterward, he had kidney surgery and spent several times in the hospital.
