Incredible Australian Woman Takes Mask Off To Reveal New Face After Being Set On Fire By A Woman Jealous Of Her Looks

An Australian woman who suffered horrific burns after being soaked in methylated spirits and set on fire has revealed her new face for the first time.

The 28-year-old was doused with methylated spirits and set on fire in her own home by a woman jealous of her beauty in a horrific premeditated attack to 'ruin her pretty face' on February 16, 2012.

After 30 months of agonising reconstructive surgery and more than 30 procedures, Ms Vulin's new look was unrecognisable as that of the woman whose life had been hanging in the balance with third degrees to two-thirds of her body just a few years ago.

Despite enduring constant pain since the horrific attack, Ms Vutlin worked hard on her rehabilitation to get her body in in shape.

'It would've been easier to die but I've never taken the easy road to anything so. It is the hardest, rockiest, biggest mountain you can possibly think of,' she said.

And what did she want people to see when she revealed her new look?

'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,' she said.

Ms Vulin was on her sofa at home in Perth, Western Australia on February 16, 2001, when a woman's voice said: 'Hello, Dana.'

Natalie Dimitrovska, who was said to be jealous of Vulin’s beauty and desperate to reconcile with her husband, broke into the victim’s flat in the early hours while under the influence of drugs. She had previously bombarded Vulin with abusive phone calls and threatened to “ruin her pretty little face”.

After the attack, which Vulin said turned her into a “human fireball”, Dimitrovska left her victim for dead.

'The moment I was on fire, [Dimitrovska and a male accomplice] just laughed and ran out of my apartment,' she added.

Neighbours raised the alarm and Vulin was rushed to Royal Perth Hospital – her mother said she was unrecognisable.

Dimitrovska was sentenced to 17 years in jail. She will be eligible for parole in 2027.
