These pictures may look like an attractive woman in her 20s and her grandmother.

But they are said to be the same person apparently taken just days apart.

The young Vietnamese woman at the centre of the improbable medical case, Nguyen Thi Phuong, claims the transformation may have come about because of an extreme allergy to seafood.

Nguyen, 26, says she developed this puffy face and sagging skin in 2008 but was too poor to seek treatment. Earlier this month, doctors said they would examine her free of charge.

Nguyens husband, carpenter Thanh Tuyen, insists the story is true and his love has not faded for his once-beautiful wife.
