On Wednesday, the 56-year-old supermodel partook in a post on Instagram that she went through a CoolSculpting fat-decrease methodology five years prior that left her "permanently deformed."

Linda is probably the most smoking supermodel during the ’90s who graced Vogue covers, says around 5 years prior she went through a fat-decrease technique called CoolSculpting, yet she asserts as opposed to freezing fat cells, the strategy did the specific inverse.

“To my followers who have wondered why I have not been working while my peers’ careers have been thriving, the reason is that I was brutally disfigured by Zeltiq’s CoolSculpting procedure which did the opposite of what it promised,” her statement reads.

Linda continued, “I have been left, as the media has described, ‘unrecognizable,'” and later says she then developed Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia or PAH which creates an enlarged and firm mass under the skin, claiming that it was a “risk” she was not made aware of before the procedure.

“PAH has not only destroyed my livelihood, it has sent me into a cycle of deep depression, profound sadness, and the lowest depths of self-loathing,” she shared, adding, “In the process, I have become a recluse.”

She finished up her assertion by declaring that she is suing the company, “I am moving forward to rid myself of my shame, and going public with my story.”

“I’m so tired of living this way. I would like to walk out my door with my head held high, despite not looking like myself any longer.”

Agents for Zeltiq and Evangelista didn’t promptly react to any media sources’ solicitation for input.

@MDNASPEARSS

Deformed??? Why would she refer to herself in such a way?? She still looks so beautiful. 😔 This is so sad. #lindaevangelista

@becboynton

I hope you guys burn in heII for what you did to our queen Linda Evangelista.

@queenmarajesty

Me, thinking about the unimaginable suffering Linda Evangelista had to go through because her face looked fat after cosmetic surgery. 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ #chronicillness #vestibularmigraine #lindaevangelista

@IsaidNae

Struggling to have sympathy with Linda Evangelista calling herself “disfigured” (fat) after a botched cosmetic procedure when there are kids born with disfigurement such as cleft lip & palate. Just… stop.

@sophienotsoph

Linda Evangelista isn’t deformed, she just kinda got fat. I mean, body positivity, sweetie. You’re fine.

@PublicHarlot

The most alarming thing about this #LindaEvangelista story is not that a cosmetic procedure didn’t work. But that she’s referring to the mildly fatter face that resulted… as having been ‘brutally disfigured’ and ‘deformed’. No scars. Just fat. To me she looks perfectly normal.🤷🏼‍♀️

@SansSobriquet

This is another example of stop shaming someone’s appearance you never know what someone is going through! Many people did it to Chadwick Boseman then to Linda Evangelista who’s been suffering behind closed doors 🥺

@WillieSparks

Jesus Im praying for Linda Evangelista! This is so sad 😞
