Michelle Heath (41), was delighted with the £4,000 surgery she found abroad to remove excess skin following her impressive 10 stone weight loss. But her treatment in Turkey became a nightmare, returning to Belfast with open wounds, serious infections, and says surgeons performed liposuction, and gave her a Brazilian bum lift without permission. Michelle needed further surgeries and skin grafts to correct the botched procedures. But the consequences could have been worse, the Foreign & Commonwealth Office say they are aware of 22 British nationals who have died in Turkey since January 2019 following medical tourism visits. Today Michelle tells her story alongside the UK’s leading cosmetic surgeon, Dr Riccardo Frati, with a warning for anyone considering surgery abroad.

That’s really bad. I had surgery in turkey and had the complete opposite. Couldn’t fault them at all and very happy with what I got. I did research my surgeon for about a year before and also I knew a few friends that had gone to the same surgeon so they had great things to say.

@jenniferstrachan7084 Год назад

Sadly the expense to the NHS is dreadful for those who then need treatment for when things go wrong Someone on a tictok feed showed how her bariatric surgery went wrong resulting in her having a leak from her stomach making her very poorly and how much the NHS has had to spend to get her botched surgery addressed One of the comments made by her was that she did not feel guilty about this expense because she had paid into the NHS system but of course she hadn’t not by any stretch of the imagination Our NHS can not afford to address botched cosmetic surgery performed abroad!!!

@donnabaardsen5372 Год назад

Great point, Jennifer. American here. In the U.S., people go to Mexico; however, our insurance companies cover dental and medical care there, because it's cheaper. American's too, must be extremely careful going there, for the same reasons as this woman here.

@SweetSassyBull 2 месяца назад

I'm not sure if I agree with your comment. At least this lady and people like her have done something about their health, what about the millions who put massive strain on the NHS by not losing weight and having ongoing and ever increasing health issues. Type 2 diabetes costs gazillions every year and is mostly just a lifestyle illness not a real illness. The NHS is totally flawed. Doctors aren't trained in nutrition and the advice given for decades has been absolutely wrong and very harmful in some cases. Advice from the likes of BHF and Diabetes UK is still shockingly bad. If people looked after themselves our health system would be second to none. Don't mean to be argumentative just wanted to say my bit 🤣

@eilidhm9322 Год назад

I don’t understand how people continue to go abroad for these procedures, the poor woman said she hadn’t heard any horror stories but I don’t know how. Its the first thing I think about when turkey and surgery is mentioned!

@NoNameEst1992 10 месяцев назад

@@eilidhm9322because you can find just as many problems in English Surgeons if you searched the Internet for it. There are plenty of botched operations over here just as there are in Turkey. You may hear about a few botched Turkey operations here and there but there are thousands and thousands being done over in Turkey all the time and the fact you hear of so few bad ones shows that mostly they turn out OK. I went over myself for some surgery and I cant complain about anything, the surgeon was great the doctors couldn't do enough for me, the driver took me everywhere, they fed mex looked after me I had a patient coordinator who checked up on me almost every day, the hotel was lovely and so on. 6 days away for £2100 for an operation that would've cost me £4500 in England just too sit in an English hospital for a couple days. It's not cheaper because it's all botched it's cheaper because the cost of living is cheaper. You just have too do your research first. A good Turkish surgeon is just the same as a good English surgeon. They both have the same profession. Its only Different if its a good English surgeon vs a bad Turkish surgeon but you could just as easily get a bad English surgeon vs a good Turkish surgeon if you don't do research.

@rosieravenclaw1521 Год назад

I work in the op room and their is always a reason something is cheaper ! Feel sorry for this lady but the NHS cannot keep affording to treat these botched surgery's.

@NoNameEst1992 10 месяцев назад

well yes the reason it's cheaper is because the cost of living is cheaper over there and medical bills etc... That's why EVERYTHING is cheaper in Turkey. I didnt have any problems with my operation, that's because I did my research beforehand

I had my teeth done in Turkey 4 years ago, 20 teeth. Since 6 of my Turkish teeth have broken, I didn’t know, they looked great to begin with, there extremely thin 😞 it now costs me £650 every time a tooth breaks and most uk dentists won’t work on them at all!!! The famous ‘cheap’ Turkey teeth have not only ended up a huge cost for the rest of my life. The guarantee they offer isn’t true, my advice, stay far away!

When I was in my early 20s and on not much money, I still managed to save for cosmetic surgery in the UK. It cost 5k in the UK with what I had done.

This morning this is a bit of a kick in the face to have one of the uk’s worst botchers on your couch talking about bad surgeons abroad! I fully respect Michelle for coming on your show and talking about her experience. But it was just as important for you to have done research on the surgeon you choose to bring on your show a surgeon who his self has pending cases against him for bad surgeries this just beats the whole objective of this story. Shame on you!

I wouldn’t call it a rip off, you get what you pay for. In the UK. It costs a lot of money to pay someone who is not only qualified but also ethically sound.

It is an identity crisis, I have been listening to so many victims of the transgender movement who were just butchered and sent out to Pasture, the way I was. I was a fifteen year old girl uncomfortable with boobs , No one even presented possibly helping me figure out what was causing the discomfort in the first place that made me feel like I couldn't go to school or face people as long as my breasts were so large. Years later I realize it was my reaction and response to kids at school and full grown adults that focused only on my breasts and I spent a lot of time in my bedroom trying to hide them and protect myself from hurtful comments.

Skin surgery after weightloss is more about avoiding skin infections like in between folds for example and being able to move around better because the skin is no longer heavy and hurtful. It is also for aesthetic reasons but the main concern is practical.
