Adopted at 9 months Gabrielle had a scar on her face, but no one knew where it came from
Officials told the family it was a bite and it would heal, but as she continued to grow, the scar became deeper and more pronounced
The children would point and stare and ask her what was wrong with her face
The appearance was “ridge-like” as described by her mother
She became upset and withdrawn with the questions
The family took her to a specialist, Dr. David Vasily, M.D. who told the family it was a thermal burn
Her parents said they just wanted to give their daughter a break
The equipment and Dr. Vasily gave them a massive improvement – 600% improvement easy!
Now 9, Gabrielle says no one teases her about her scar anymore which has been reduced to some discoloration which they hope will dissipate as well
