… she was fine after surgery, surgeon claims

A 23-year-old girl, Destiny Benjamin, has been reported dead four days after a hip surgery, popularly known as Brazilian Butt Lift, BBL, at Cynosure Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Lagos.

Various social media platforms have been awash with the viral video of the procedure since her death.

Confirming the development, owner of Cynosure Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Dr. Ogbe Omoruyi, denied the allegation that the lady died in the hospital during the surgery.

Omoruyi, who spoke to Vanguard, explained that the deceased underwent the surgery on March 8, and had complained of difficulty in breathing before she was referred to the Genesis Specialists Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos, where she gave up the ghost.

Omoruyi, who is also a plastic surgeon, further told Vanguard that the deceased was 23 years old and not 20.

He said: “She is a 23 years old girl according to what she wrote on documents. She had a surgery and after that she was fine, her surgery went well.

“I can show you in our case note to show that everything was fine.

“However, after days she was having difficulty breathing. We placed her on oxygen and she was stabilised before we referred her to an intensive care unit, which is 10 minutes away from our facility.

“Unfortunately, as we all know, surgery has its own risk, and if you ask any professional doctor or surgeon, who knows about life consumptions and tractions, it is very easy to think that she could have fat embolism or clot embolism, but she had difficulty breathing.

“A very important investigation was done. It is called CT Pulmonary Angiogram. This can detect any clot that is present within the pulmonary system.

“The test was done in the facility where she was referred to. When I was informed and showed the results, it was said that she didn’t have an embolism.

“Her cousin, Sunset, was with her after her surgery. They went around because they were together. She came here to see her and they took pictures together, moving around the clinic compound two days later.

“This is to let you know that she was fine after the surgery.

“However or unfortunately, an autopsy hasn’t been done; I don’t know if the family is going to consent to that.”

Contrary to social media reports that the medical clinic recorded five deaths in a year, Ogbe said only two deaths have been recorded in the clinic, noting that it happened in the year 2018 and 2021.

He said: “This can be verified with the Local Government because all local governments have primary health centres where practitioners give reports on the death toll.

“So, we have only two recorded deaths.”

When the Lagos Police Command spokesman, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, was contacted, he said: “To the best of my knowledge, I am not aware of the incident.

“The family of the deceased have not reported to the police authorities.”

However, efforts to get Genesis Specialist Hospital’s reaction proved abortive.

But the person who answered Vanguard’s call at press time said he does not know what happened.

Even with the sad news, another girl elsewhere is mobilizing money for nyash lift.

The Nigerian medical association will never admit any errors even in the face of glaring evidences . Anyway, RIP to the dead

.




Good riddance to bad rubbish


No ripS to waste darling

Lost soul. Let her rest in pieces. Lesson for others to learn.

Same procedure that once took away Nigeria's first lady of then in far away Spain yet so many are still going for it.

Instead to focus on her breathing issue it is hip surgery that top her priority.

May lord comfort her loved ones.

A lot of Nigerian girls between the ages of 16-25 suffer from low self-esteem a lot. Even with your flat hips and nyash, if you're confident a girl, discard every atom of self condemnation and have a wonderful heart, men would flock around you.

so HIP SURGERY is the new name they use to call BBLs now....?! lets be honest and tell it like it is: she went to get a new nyansh and died.

They don't want to learn

Every girl wants to have a big back
But one a serious note, these deaths keep happening every year. Something needs to be done about it.

There's a popular believe in naija that as a lady once you are loaded front and back Men will worship you and lavish you with the best things of life. Maybe that's why everyone is rushing to go and pump their body

Hip hip hip hurrayyy!!!

it cost 16k to run a check up on me and gave me 1 card of drugs and 2 eye drops..just for a swollen eye...now who knows how much this gal spent just for something that is irrelevant..is big backside an achievement?

sometimes I look at all this older women with hips and big backies and I observed that most of them find it difficult to take a long walk,all this doesn't make sense at all.stick to normal size,who loves you loves you the way you are...Omoh is hard to type r.i.p this gals refuse to learn...

I'm happy she died.
I pray more like her die.

Give me that surgeon's number let me buy him mortuary standard beer.

What on earth would our sister tell the Lord JESUS Christ?
Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity.
There is much more to life than all these irrelevant things we pursue in the name of gratifying the flesh.

Beware of this flesh. It is a deceiver.

The Greatest thing you can do for yourself is to Have a genuine relationship with JESUS CHRIST and adhere to His words and commandments.

Hmmm...

What I have naturally in full abundance.

Pls ladies, be confident with what u have.

Everything is Self Esteem. Give urself good judgement about yourself regardless of what u have. Please.

I don't want to talk too much cos if I talk, some people will be looking at me with one kain eye.

So, they're not yet wise enough?
Now the men you're trying to impress, where are they?

I hate it when women think with their bodies instead of their brains.

Social media oppression is real.

She felt so inferior

What a stupid way to die
