A 22-year-old woman named Mika Shabasova died during a buttocks enlargement surgery done by her friend, an unqualified beautician.
The surgery took place at the cosmetologist’s home, and Mika passed away just ten minutes after receiving local anaesthetic.
The cosmetologist, identified as Uma M, was placed under house arrest as authorities look into the incident. Uma M, who only completed a two-week course, offered the procedure for £154 even though she had no license for cosmetic surgery.
She had previously done lip, cheek, and buttock enlargements without proper qualifications.
According to state investigators in Makhachkala, Uma M repeatedly used lidocaine, a local anaesthetic, on Mika’s skin. Mika was asked about allergies, but unfortunately, the procedure led to her death.
The Russian Investigative Committee is currently examining all the details surrounding the incident.
Mika’s friend advised her not to undergo the buttock procedure, which Uma M had promoted. Uma M had recently received a certificate after working as a waitress and lash extension technician.
Mika ignored her friend’s advice and decided to undergo the surgery secretly, leaving her home when her roommates were away. Three days prior, she had a fever, but she proceeded with the procedure anyway.
“Mika went to her, because Uma is her friend, purely because of trust.’
Three days before the surgery she had a fever and she was off work.
‘She lived with three girls in an apartment – they all tried to persuade her not to go to this beautician.’
He said that the woman ‘secretly, when everyone was at home, simply left the house, rang a taxi and went for this surgery,” the friend said.
Mika had undergone other cosmetic procedures in the past, using different anaesthetics for lip, nose, and chin enhancements. However, this time, she tragically lost her life within fifteen minutes of receiving the anaesthetic.
“She had previously had lips, nose, and chin procedures.
‘These were with different anaesthetics. But within 15 minutes she was gone.’
Police questioned her friends”, he added.
