I can't quite understand your question

If you mean - "If you were to look directly at Medusa, what would happen?" - Then you would most likely be instantly turned to stone due to her Gorgon appearance and curse. It is said that could of been revived from that stone by flicking blood of slain Gorgon onto the stone imprisoned person, reversing the ffects. But others thing that once you are stone, you simply die in that state.

If you meant - "If you were to look directly at Medusa, what would you see?"- Then you probably see a vicious female monster with brass hands, sharp fangs and hair of living, venomous snakes. Some say it isn't Medusa's actual appearance that causes people to turn to stone but actually the curse Athena placed upon her along if the curse of being turned into a Gorgon - That's right, Medusa was human to begin with :) as some versions of the myth say
