A MUM has tragically died after having a botched nose job by a doctor who was allegedly unqualified.
Miriam Mitma Yalli, 37, underwent the cosmetic procedure on 10 November after passing pre-operative tests.
But the mum-of-two was given a higher dose of anaesthesia than her body required, according to her family members.
Minutes after being administered the dose, Miriam reportedly went into cardiac arrest.
After days in intensive care, she was diagnosed with hypoxic-anoxic leukoencephalopathy, a condition associated with a severe oxygen deficiency in the brain.
Miriam, whose children are aged 15 and five, died in a hospital in Huancayo, Peru, on December 8.
Her husband Daniel Gómez Rufasto has called for an investigation.
Miriam’s family have slammed the doctor and accused him of being unqualified for the surgery.
The victim’s mother said: “My daughter was healthy, just one operation and this happened.
“I want justice for my daughter.”
Family members and sympathetic locals staged a protest at the Public Ministry headquarters in Hualhuas to demand justice for Miriam.
The authorities are still waiting for the results of an autopsy to decide the next course of action.
They’re continuing to gather testimonies and information to clarify the circumstances behind the victim’s sudden deterioration in health.
It comes after a mum-of-three was left in a coma after undergoing cosmetic procedures abroad.
Chloe Mowday, 31, booked two straightforward plastic surgeries to take place while travelling around Southeast Asia.
What was meant to be the trip of a lifetime was cut short two weeks ago, soon after she went under the knife.
What are the risks of getting surgery abroad?
IT’S important to do your research if you’re thinking about having cosmetic surgery abroad.
It can cost less than in the UK, but you need to weigh up potential savings against the potential risks.
Safety standards in different countries may not be as high.
No surgery is risk-free. Complications can happen after surgery in the UK or abroad.
If you have complications after an operation in the UK, the surgeon is responsible for providing follow-up treatment.
Overseas clinics may not provide follow-up treatment, or they may not provide it to the same standard as in the UK.
Also, they may not have a healthcare professional in the UK that you can visit if you have any problems.
