Actress Danniella headed to the hospital with bandages wrapped around her head and neck and a large plaster across her nose.

The former EastEnders star was checked out by a surgeon and later showed off a painful-looking wound on the side of her head.

Danniella underwent "nightmare" surgery in April after years of battling cocaine addiction and osteoporosis left her with her with a collapsed septum and crumbling bones in her face.

In the horrific experience, an unlicensed doctor allegedly struck her and performed a facial operation without using anaesthesia.

More on Danniella Westbrook

She told The Sun in an exclusive chat last month: "I was doing it in Liverpool with a professor there. I should have stayed with him but a friend convinced me to go to Turkey. It's my own stupid fault.

"I'm going back to him though but I'm gonna pay for it this time. I'd been quoted £500,000 before, I don't care what it is.

"If I don't have it done, the palate in the back of my mouth will collapse and I'll suffocate to death.

"When I went to Turkey, I could have died. I could have died if someone had just botched it any further. I'm not the youngest person in the world and I haven't been the wellest."

Despite her experience with surgery, Danniella was undeterred and earlier this month underwent her eighth boob job in order to go "four sizes bigger".

A source told the Mirror ahead of the surgery: "Daniella is flying Turkey to get her boobs done four sizes bigger.

"She will also be getting facial contour and thread lifts in elbows and knees."
