Quick Summary

Brandi Glanville, 53, is set to undergo facial surgery on Friday where Dr. Carlo Henrado will perform an exploratory procedure to remove what he believes are either fungal balls or a living parasite identified under her skin. The doctor will charge an additional $5,000 beyond insurance coverage for the operation, which Glanville describes as involving a "power wash" and spinning her blood for platelet treatments inside her face. This surgery comes after Glanville's recent diagnosis with multiple health conditions including highly resistant bacterial infections and fungal issues.

Story summary

As of October 25, 2026, Brandi Glanville, a 53-year-old reality TV star, is scheduled for an exploratory surgery on her face to address years of unexplained health issues. In a podcast episode, she revealed that facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Carlo Honrado (identified as "Henrado" in the New York Post article) will perform the procedure, which involves removing parts of her skin to investigate two spots he believes could be either fungal balls or parasites based on their movement. Glanville had previously been diagnosed with multiple conditions including highly resistant ESBL Klebsiella and Enterobacter with biofilm, coccidioidomycosis (Valley fever), Demodex dermatitis, and mononucleosis. The surgery, estimated to cost an additional $5,000 beyond what insurance covers, aims to relieve her ongoing health struggles that have included daily IV treatments costing between $3,300 to $6,000 per month.
