While plastic surgery has its supporters and haters, it is safe to say that not all surgeries will go the way they were supposed to. And this botched surgery proves that.

A 65-year-old woman went to get surgery done for completely other reasons and was woken up to a new body, including a new set of boobs and buttcheeks. But, get this: She has never asked for those surgeries. Additionally, she was asked to pay the expenses for the extra surgeries as well.

The Botched Surgery Was Not Planned

A 65-year-old woman named Kimberly McCormick faced significant medical expenses. They totaled $75,000 (£60,000) after a discounted surgery in Mexico went wrong, leaving her “disfigured.”

Six years prior, she had a successful $13,000 (£10,000) weight-loss surgery at the Mexico Bariatric Centre. In October, she returned for additional procedures. This included a breast lift and removal of excess skin from her arms, thighs, and stomach.

However, Kimberly McCormick experienced a shocking turn of events after her surgery in Mexico. She woke up to find that she had undergone an undesired breast augmentation and Brazilian Butt Lift. Distressed, she informed medical staff, denying ever requesting such procedures and expressing her dismay at the unexpected outcome. The medical staff claimed she had requested a full C cup, a statement McCormick vehemently denied.

What Happened?

Kimberly McCormick detailed her distressing experience. She revealed that in addition to the surgeon’s failure to address the loose skin on her arms and thighs, she unexpectedly received a Brazilian Butt Lift she hadn’t requested. As she woke up in the hospital, a realization dawned on her that something had gone wrong. She was shocked by the revelation that one of her lungs had partially collapsed during the surgery.

Despite the surgeon having marked out areas on her body for procedures, including a leg lift, arm lift, breast lift, and tummy tuck, the surgery deviated from the planned course. McCormick, who entered the surgery at 4:00 in the afternoon, was surprised to find out that the procedure extended until 1:30 in the morning. The marks on her body, indicative of the intended alterations, stood in stark contrast to the unexpected outcomes she faced. This added to the complexity and dissatisfaction of her medical ordeal in Mexico.

How the Botched Surgery Affected Kimberly

Kimberly McCormick’s post-surgery ordeal worsened as she found herself in a “filthy” room. Additionally, she was struggling to breathe, and eventually developing a severe infection. Misty Ann McCormick, Kimberly’s daughter, showed concern about her mother’s well-being and sought answers about the situation. However, Misty claims that when she asked about her mother, she was physically pushed out by armed security. Distressed and fearing for her life, Kimberly recounted her daughter’s forced exit, showing the anguish of being alone and unattended during a critical health crisis.

What Happened in the End?

Kimberly McCormick revealed that the weight-loss surgery she initially sought in the U.S. would have cost over $50,000. However, after a botched procedure in Mexico, doctors estimate the cost of fixing the damage to exceed $75,000. Kimberly alleges she was pressured into paying an additional $2,500 beyond the pre-paid price because her stay was longer than they expected.

Expressing gratitude for her survival, Kimberly acknowledges the need for another surgery due to complications with oversized implants that are not healing properly. She has since returned to King County for treatment by local doctors and strongly advises others to avoid cut-price surgeries, emphasizing the dissatisfaction and potential risks associated with such procedures. Her cautionary message urges people not to be swayed by enticing offers, as the ultimate outcome may not align with their expectations.
