Young Kannada actress Swathi Sathish is in the news after a root canal procedure performed on her recently by a qualified dentist in Bengaluru failed. Her face has been disfigured beyond recognition.

The actress took to social media and shared the pics of her swollen face. After her face was swollen due to the procedure, she approached the dentist, who assured her the problem will go away on its own in a couple of days. However, to the actress' dejection, the swelling became worse and her face was totally disfigured.

Swathi has accused the dentist and the hospital of not only giving her wrong information about the dental procedure but also of administering Salicylic acid in place of anesthesia. 

In May, an upcoming Kannada TV actress named Chetana Raj died after she opted for plastic surgery to reduce her body fat. The 21-year-old small screen star died because of accumulated fluid in her lungs after the cosmetic procedure.
