I was rushed to A&E after ‘botched’ liquid Brazilian Bum Lift – any later and I would have been dead

A woman almost died after getting a Brazilian bum lift and going rushing to A&E ‘delirious’.

The patient who asked not to be named, sought medical attention just six days after getting having filler injected into her buttocks.

After suffering serious complications doctors told her she had a major haematoma, which is when blood pools inside the body.

The BBL practitioner had allegedly injected one of the patient’s veins, causing a bleed that resulted in sepsis.

She explained: ‘The doctor told me if I hadn’t gotten to the hospital when I had that I would be dead.’

She continued: ‘When I arrived at the hospital, I was seriously unwell, delirious and unable to stand or walk.

‘Surgeons arrived and confirmed I had sepsis and that I’d be going straight down for an emergency, if not life-saving, surgery.

‘I was taken down to theatre not really knowing what was going on and I woke up three hours later.

‘I spent two weeks in hospital, bed-bound and on a lot of medication with a lot of care.

‘After two weeks I was allowed home but had daily checks from the district nurses.

‘It was like this for the next five months.

‘I was unable to live a normal life – I couldn’t bath or do any activities.

‘At this point, I would say I was at my lowest mentally.

‘I was embarrassed.’

The filler had also seeped into the woman’s leg, which lead to another infection and an additional ten days in hospital.

The surgeons were forced to remove all of the filler, which left the patient disfigured.

In images provided, her buttocks appear visibly uneven and her skin is sagging.

Once out of hospital and desperate to get her body back to normality, she looked for options to get her bum back to its previous shape.

Fat is first harvested from the hips, lower back, abdomen, thighs and other areas via liposuction . Special equipment is used to prepare it for transfer before it is injected directly into the glutes at specific points, giving the buttocks a bigger, curvier appearance

 She booked a consultation with Dr Ducu, a highly regarded aesthetics practitioner who has his own clinic in London.

She said: ‘I was unbelievably scared but as soon as Dr Ducu and I had a consultation, I felt so much better.

‘He reassured me and explained everything in great detail.

‘We came up with a plan and he executed each appointment with extreme caution and safety.’

Dr Ducu was able to fix the botched job.

He performed his own personal procedure on her known as a ‘DBL’ (Ducu Butt Lift) at a cost of £2,500.

The DBL uses filler injections to reshape the buttocks and requires minimal downtime.

Dr Ducu said: ‘She sadly had a bad experience after having hyaluronic acid injected in a non-sterile way.

‘Whoever injected her didn’t know how to manage the complications and so she ended up septic in the hospital, and she could have died.

‘What I have tried to do for her is fix everything without doing surgery.

‘In the right hands, using hyaluronic acid for the buttocks area can be very safe and can give amazing results.

‘Also, using an ultrasound minimises the risk as close to zero as possible.

‘This procedure should be done by doctors who are very well trained and who have surgical experience.

‘They should also know how to use the right amount of local anaesthetic, and be able to assess their patients.’

The patient is thrilled with her results, but she still requires additional surgery to remove the excess skin that has been left under her buttock area.

She said: ‘I’m extremely happy with how he’s fixed me.

‘I will forever be grateful to Dr Ducu and his team.’
