After a horrifying attack by a vicious pit bull a brave little 7-year-old girl is about to have her 57th surgery to reconstruct her face after the dog mauled her in 2006.

Amaya Hess was in a stroller while her mom Bobbie Tomlin was taking her for a walk when a neighbor's pit bull grabbed her and chomped on her ear, eye, nose and ripped off her scalp.

After the attack Amaya spent three months in a coma, but now she's bounced back and is like all other little kids.
