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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Various social media platforms have been awash with the viral video of the procedure since her death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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, claiming that she was fine after the surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omoruyi, who spoke to newsmen, 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cShe 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI can show you in our case note to show that everything was fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHowever, 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnfortunately, 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA very important investigation was done. It is called CT Pulmonary Angiogram. This can detect any clot that is present within the pulmonary system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe 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\u2019t have an embolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHer 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHowever or unfortunately, an autopsy hasn\u2019t been done; I don\u2019t know if the family is going to consent to that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However he added 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cThis can be verified with the Local Government because all local governments have primary health centres where practitioners give reports on the death toll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, we have only two recorded deaths.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the Lagos Police Command spokesman, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, was contacted, he said: \u201cTo the best of my knowledge, I am not aware of the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe family of the deceased have not reported to the police authorities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All efforts to get Genesis Specialist Hospital\u2019s reaction proved unsuccessful .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
