Mom of 3 dies after botched Brazilian bum lift

A British mother-of-three has died after getting a ‘bottom lift’ at a Turkish clinic made popular by reality TV stars.

Leah Cambridge, 29, from Leeds collapsed shortly after the £3,000 operation that aimed to lift and increase the size of her bottom began at the Elite Aftercare Clinic in Izmir.

It is thought she died on the operating table at the celebrity clinic , but her cause of death has not yet been revealed, reported the Sun.

Last night Miss Cambridge’s partner, Scott Franks, 31, issued an impassioned plea for more information around the circumstances of her death, as his life, he said, had come crashing down around him.

Joining her parents in Turkey to fly Miss Cambridge’s body home, he told the paper:

‘I just wish this was a bad dream.‘Two days ago I was happy. Now I’m a broken man and will be for ever.‘I’m hurt so bad and this is only the start. My life has crashed.’

The so-called ‘Brazilian butt-lift’ procedure involves taking fat from the waist or the stomach and injecting it into the bottom.

It serves as an alternative to buttock augmentations using implants and is believed to offer a safer way of plumping your bottom due to the ‘natural’ fat used, which minimises the risk of silicon rejection.

The clinic’s website says the procedure usually takes between one and two hours and can either be performed under general anaesthetic, or a local anaesthetic with an epidural.

It says after surgery patients will feel ‘some slight pain and discomfort’ but ‘the majority of out clients are walking around the next day with no pain but some discomfort.’

Patients will be left with bruising for three to four weeks, but after a months the swelling will go down, and gradually disappear after three months. It can take up to six months to see the final result.
