Buttocks, breast enlargement may cause death, plastic surgeon warns
A plastic surgeon, Rex Dafiewhare, on Tuesday in Abuja warned that complications arising from the process of buttocks and breast enlargement might lead to the death of the patient.
According to him, the procedure is done under general anaesthesia, which can result in complications arising from general anaesthesia itself just like in any other surgery. “Blood clots may form in the legs especially in overweight people due to long surgery time. If they get dislodged into circulation that may cause severe breathing problems, otherwise called pulmonary embolism or even death,” Mr Dafiewhare said.
According to him, while this may result in death, embolism is particularly more likely to occur when the fat is injected into the muscle instead of under the skin.
