[@elisaalighieri2041]

This is sad, and they do practically kick you out of hospital and dumped in Hotel, scared and alone, i have just returned from Istanbul on 28th January 2024, i swear never ever again, please rather save and do your surgery in Uk 🇬🇧

How are you revovering Elisa?

[@pmd1933]

EVEN IN THE UK PEOPLE CAN DIE FROM THESE SURGERIES!!!

[@theatrak1272]

It’s easier for them to accuse Turkey because it’s “cheaper” Turkish surgeons are great but these people are quick to hate, they act like the NHS is the greatest

[@chrysalis4126]

@@theatrak1272 The NHS have to pick up the pieces from profit making companies not offering any aftercare following major surgery.

[@cameronbulcroft3040]

If the NHS gave the support that people need then they wouldn't be left with no other option

[@squallleonhart470]

If you’re doing it abroad - do it within the EU where you still have protection and hospitals have higher accountability. Serbia, Turkey, Thailand are much cheaper for a reason.

She was 20 years old and thought she had researched it well, naive probably

[@greyLeicester]

Yeah, but no. Thanks to Brexit theres no protection anymore...

[@aduckwithanumbrella]

​@@pesquero100 This and a lot of these surgeons will advertise on social media, offer deals and even use influencers to promote their clinics. many young people get enticed from this.

[@paulbradphil]

Your health is paramount. Dont risk it for vanity. Post op complications can happen, sepsis can happen. If you want to lose weight, eat less and move more.

[@cameronbulcroft3040]

Spoken like someone who hasn't struggled with weight to any great degree

[@AnalystManIssac]

Before anyone judges her, for wanting a cheat procedure overseas. Here in the US with some minor insurance help the operation still cost me over $16,000 out of my own pocket. Which was all of my savings and took two years to get to. Thankfully, my surgery went well, and I haven’t had any issues. My surgeon really took every precaution to make sure I was OK. But this is an every outcome, of course. The operations can go wrong even here in the US.

my friend has just lost her daughter 8weeks after weight loss surgery in turkey

😢😢sorry for your loss that’s sad

[@LilaMasomyar]

I know how they runs their business, they fix the price and when u get to turkey they increase double the price so I was really to dead please please don’t go to turkey to do surgery

[@KimMaddison-j2w]

Lisa marie died after weight loss surgery a few years after sad

[@rejeannagwynn5665]

I’m so sorry for your loss.

[@sherenekelley8311]

All I can say ppl must love n appreciate them self....love yourself dont matter how you look..facts

[@nyxnecrodragon4256]

Ethics have slipped so much in the last 20 years. I have body dysmorphia caused by years of bullying. I went to a cosmetic surgeon and said I wanted a tummy tuck and I wanted to go from a DD to an F. He said absolutely not it would cause me health problems, I was already underweight and I was only 20 years old it was unethical to perform unnecessary surgery on someone so young. What happened to 'First do no harm'?

[@misstbull]

Y am i mot hearing about lawsuits against these doc???

[@mysterymaverick1982]

With any surgery even here in the UK you pretty much sign a document accepting risks of the surgery. This means that many people have no recourse to sue after.

[@chicagogyrl4846]

Where cid she get the money to go out of the country for surgery??!

[@caroleoneill2872]

Isn't it terrible beautiful girl like that even if she was overweight sorry I would not have this done excercise & just cutting down on food not diet as such just smaller portions may she rest in peace ❤

[@greyLeicester]

What do people really expect? Are they really lacking that much common sense? 🤷🏻‍♀️ you get what you pay for. Prioritising economy to health is the first mistake

[@solomonrice4539]

Why even do this to yourself

[@am5783]

Because young people these days are bombarded with specific messages constantly. This woman in particular was bullied viciously and it clearly affected how she viewed herself and her mental health. When you think about it, it's really easy to see how someone could do this to themselves.

[@booksandauthorsindependenttv]

They should ground all flights to Turkey

[@cheetavontiebolt9971]

Get surgury in usa and uk

[@Jesusofsuburbia768]

It's better to cut down on fatty food, and exercise

[@a.ashley5292]

Darwin award.

[@Npoolclubtv]

There is no NHS waiting list anymore, im A risk and cant get on

[@pesquero100]

There is an NHS waiting list and I Know that Morgan had been on that list for 16months, she was told that she had to wait at least another 18 months which is what pushed her to go for treatment abroad

[@cameronbulcroft3040]

Me too. My liver was packing in and I couldn't even get a refferal to the weight loss team

[@RobertoSchiavone-x4i]

I can imagine but obviously we told you lol

[@lorisheldon6427]

She was a mother, and now they lost their mum she cared more about the way she looks than being a parent shame on her

[@Mel87y]

Not her fault leave her alone

[@pesquero100]

She wasn't a mother, she had no children, she was 20 years old with a mother & father and 2 grandmothers, get off your keyboard high horse

[@cameronbulcroft3040]

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Yes some people do it for looks, but many do it for health reasons.
