Rose McGowan feared she’d be scarred for life by a recent freak car accident that left her with a deep cut to her face. The actress was the passenger in a car that was struck by another vehicle. The impact pushed her glasses into her face, slicing into the skin beneath her eye.

She was forced to undergo plastic surgery to erase the resulting scar. McGowan tells PageSix.com, “I didn’t realize I was hurt until I put my hand to my face and felt the flap of skin. My glasses had sliced me under my eye.”
