She has spoken out about her harrowing surgery experience after she was left with lumps of fluid under the skin, and temporarily lost her eyesight in one eye and thought she was going to 'die'.
She explained to OK! Magazine: "It has been a living nightmare. I regret it so much. I just want to go back to England and see my family.”
Danniella also had a 'hole' in her head after the procedure.
“It wasn’t until I was washing my hair that I realised the stitches had come undone and I had an open wound," she added.
“I literally have a hole on the side of my head. It’s about an inch long. I could actually put my finger in the hole, which was awful."
She said that they put 200 threads in her nose in a bid to straighten it, but said that the procedure failed.
Danniella said that she's now going to return to Liverpool to get her nose fixed, explaining that surgeons need to rebuild the bridge in her mouth and build up the front of her nose.
They also took some fat out of her back, sides and stomach and have pumped it into her face to make it more symmetrical.
She explained that she thinks they took "too much" fatty tissue from her stomach and she's now "lost her six-pack".
