British teenager Zara Hartshorn suffers from a rare genetic disorder called lipodystrophy. This disease removes the body's natural ability to grow fat cells beneath the skin. This is especially noticeable in a patient's face, where the skin is wrinkly and causes them appears much older than they actually are. Unfortunately, there is still no known cure - Zara also received a sort of "facelift" surgery which did not produce dramatically different results.
