Woman Dead After Undergoing 6 Cosmetic Procedures at Once
Key Points:
- Andreia Vieira Gaspar, a 51-year-old woman, died days after undergoing six cosmetic procedures in an eight-hour surgery in Goiânia, Brazil, including a facelift, blepharoplasty, liposuction, and facial fat grafting.
- Andreia had saved approximately $22,918 USD over two years for the surgery, which she dreamed of having, but reportedly did not have a pre-procedure consultation in Brazil, with pre-op tests conducted in Spain.
- Her sister, Djiane Vieira, alleges inadequate post-surgery care after Andreia experienced severe tongue swelling, claiming the hospital lacked an ICU and emergency ambulance, and that medical staff were unresponsive.
- Andreia died in her sister’s arms following multiple resuscitation attempts, prompting Djiane to demand answers and accountability from the medical team.
- The surgeon, Dr. Lessandro Martins, declined to comment on clinical details citing medical confidentiality, expressing confidence that an investigation will clarify the care provided.
