Overview

• Three months after a tummy tuck and 360 liposuction, Soreena O'Malley reports severe pain, is confined to bed, and needs help with basic tasks.
• She chose the procedure after a Facebook advert presented the Turkish hospital as safe and professional.
• She says NHS surgeons told her the operation abroad was done improperly, and an NHS skin graft taken from her leg subsequently failed.
• She alleges she was told to pay upfront to secure a bed and was asked to sign consent forms written only in Turkish with no translation.
• Her partner has launched a GoFundMe seeking £5,000 for corrective care, with £426 pledged at the latest report, and outlets cite NHS advice urging caution over cosmetic surgery sold as travel packages with no immediate comment from NHS England.
