Mexican actress and cabaret star Lyn May was once celebrated for her beauty. But in the 1990s, a trusted friend led her into a disastrous cosmetic procedure involving cooking oil and baby oil instead of proper fillers. The result left her face severely swollen and permanently disfigured.
Despite several surgeries, the damage couldn’t be undone. Viral before-and-after photos shocked fans, but Lyn now uses her painful experience as a warning about unsafe beauty treatments.
Over the years, she’s also made headlines for bold claims—like an alleged affair with a former president and announcing a pregnancy at 68. Still, Lyn refuses to be defined by the past and urges others to seek self-worth beyond appearances. Her story is a powerful reminder to lead with compassion, not judgment.
