Irene Aldana spent three rounds in the octagon with Norma Dumont at UFC 306 but it looked like she was tangling with Jason Voorhees just one day after Friday the 13th.

A clash of heads opened a horrific cut on Aldana’s head that had blood running down into her eyes as she kept wiping at her face while trying to mount a comeback against Dumont. Despite a valiant effort, Aldana just couldn’t get the job done with Dumont ultimately winning a unanimous decision.

While the loss probably stung enough, Aldana then had to go backstage to get treatment on her cut with UFC CEO Dana White showing off a photo of the gruesome gash before she got medical attention.

Dr. Greg Hsu — the UFC’s on-staff physician and surgeon — then took it one step further by posting a video that showed him moving the cut around Aldana’s head before eventually stitching her up.

The video definitely isn’t for the faint of heart as Hsu shows just how deep the cut went on Aldana’s head.

The next slide over shows the aftermath with Hsu literally sewing Aldana’s forehead back together again following the damage done from the fight.

It’s safe to assume that Aldana is going to need some plastic surgery in the not too distant future to ensure that machete-like wound doesn’t leave her with a permanent scar across her forehead.
