Carissa and her mother, who is also disfigured, experience abuse and mistreatment as a sideshow in a town perya, where they were abused and mistreated. Despite of this, she was defended by Mendez, a man who befriends the disfigured Carissa and who eventually falls in love with her despite her feature. Finally finding a chance to escape, Carissa is nearly run over by the car driven by Hugo (TJ Trinidad), a renowned plastic and cosmetic surgeon, who was also at the time working on a new, revolutionary surgical procedure. Also in the car is Alicia, Hugo's beloved wife, who shortly after the incident, dies in a tragic airplane accident. When fate decides to cross Hugo's and Carissa's paths anew, Carissa decides to take Hugo up on the offer to be a test patient for Hugo's new procedure. Hugo, meanwhile, decides to mold Carissa's new features on that of his dead wife. After having a charming new look, Carissa returns to her hometown to seek revenge over the locals who made her life a living hell. But can Carissa truly be happy with a face - and a life - borrowed from a woman long dead? How will Hugo live with a woman who shares his wife's face? And what will happen to her relationship with Mendez, a young man who was the only person to see the true beauty behind Carissa's "ugliness?" Written by Anonymous See less
