Ready For My Close-up: ‘Cement Face’ Woman Gets New Look

A WOMAN who was once dubbed ‘cement face’ after receiving black market surgery has a new lease of life after corrective treatment.The 48-year-old transgender woman fell prey to “toxic tush doctor” Oneal Ron Morris in 2005 - a fellow trans woman who went by the name of ‘Duchess’ and injected her clients with illegal substances - including cement, superglue and tyre sealant. For years, Rajee was too ashamed to seek help and hardly left home. But then a friend referred her to cosmetic surgeon Dr John Martin, who agreed to give her free treatment to repair the damage to her face and body. Seven weeks and four rounds of surgery later, Rajee is ecstatic with the results.
