Featured 05/05/2015 in ftw

A lesser person might have never expected to see herself again.

1. 28-year-old Dana Vulin had methylated spirits thrown in her face by a jealous girl.
2. Vulin was subjected to 30 surgeries in about 30 months.
3. She was forced to wear this mask for 2 and a half years.
4. She didn't think she could ever look in the mirror again.
5. But she took this event head-on. "I’m going to make this burn my bitch, I’m going to kick it in the face, and I am going to rock scars, look hot with my scarred-up body and just make this work," she said.
6. She stayed motivated, exercised regularly. "I have worked so hard on it, and I figured if I’m going to be burnt – I’m going to have a s**t hot rig."
7. Vulin is enjoying her freedom from the mask and being able to show her face again.
8. She is unrecognizable from the burned and scarred girl she once was.
9. One of the first things that made her happy was being able to go out for coffee with her sister and not have to sip it through a straw.
10. All said and done, she can strut the runway and look great doing it. "I hope they’ll see strength, power, confidence, self respect, courage, determination – and I hope they see the scars because it’s a part of me now and they see a new Dana. I am who I am, and this is it."
