Neyo White, who went viral on Tiktok for detailing his experience as a burn victim from a botched chemical peel, is now getting a hefty check for his trauma.
TMZ revealed that White will receive $1 million for his successful lawsuit against Diamond Facez Skin Care Bar and its CEO, Shamari-Rene Cherry, who rendered the service.

The Georgia resident went to the social media platform to showcase his burns from the facial service that left his skin discolored and blotchy in various places, having to seek medical attention at the hospital for his injuries. He insisted that the videos were not an attempt to gain clout, and warning his followers of his seriousness by planning to sue the Atlanta-based business for ruining his face. It is evident based on the compensation owed after the verdict that the content creator had a strong case behind him.
However, that is not the only matter that White has taken into his own hands. Since the incident, his face has nearly recovered, getting laser treatment at Emerage Medical with dermatologist Jason Emer, self-described as the “world’s most recognized cosmetic dermatologist and surgeon.” White also launched his own brand, Neyo Skincare Brand, in another way to capitalize off his own struggle.
As for Mr. White, it is safe to say that while his skin may never fully recover, his pockets are currently overflowing.
