A woman has died from undergoing cosmetic
surgery for a so-called 'Brazilian butt lift' at the same US clinic in
less than a year. New mum Ranika Hall, 25, travelled from Missouri to
South Florida for the operation last week because she was reportedly
unhappy with her post-pregnancy body. She went against the wishes of her
family who had urged her not to go through with the popular procedure
which uses liposuction to take fat from elsewhere in the body and inject
it into the buttocks.
“I tried to talk her out of it. I really did,” her mother, Nicole Hall, said. “Her sisters and her brothers tried to talk her out of it,” she said.
Ms.
Hall is the second patient in less than a year to die from a Brazilian
butt-lift procedure at the same Miami plastic surgery clinic. She
scheduled the cosmetic procedure at Eres Plastic Surgery in Hialeah —
the clinic where 29-year-old Heather Meadows died from the same
procedure last year. It also reports that Encore and connected clinics
were known to engage in deceptive practices resulting in patient
injuries, according to local investigations. Ms. Hall reportedly lost
consciousness and stopped breathing last Thursday, police said. She was
declared dead at the hospital at about 10pm.
