A SURGERY fan has hit back at the people who've dubbed her decision to get a BBL as the ''dumbest and most dangerous'' ever.

Emily Blake (@emilyblakebs), from the UK, took to TikTok to show off her post-surgery body – but very soon, the blonde ended up getting savaged online.

The young woman, who jetted off to Istanbul, Turkey, paid a total of £7k for a full-body makeover, which included a stomach liposuction, as well as the notorious Brazilian Butt Lift, also known as BBL.

Although she claimed the surgery itself wasn't as painful as initially imagined, it was the aftermath that Emily found challenging.

Sharing her thoughts on day four post-operation, Emily said: ''I don't know how you jail people do it.

''Because I'm driving myself mad – I'm here by myself in one room and it feels like Covid again, and I'm just like urgh, I've got another three days of this.''

Appearing to be pleased with the results, the beauty fan also flashed her new toned tummy in the video.

''I've got a nice six-pack. It's just really f***ing sore at the minute.''

But whilst Emily may have been over the moon with her pricey transformation, people on the platform insisted she was risking her life for vanity.

One person wrote: ''Dumbest and most dangerous surgery.''

Someone else agreed, saying: ''Most dangerous surgery you can get you can actually die from it.''

''I'm so glad I was born with the bigger butt,'' another penned.

Hitting back at the concerns, Emily insisted: ''I know it'll be worth it.''

BBL – which is a surgical fat transfer – has become increasingly popular over the years.

But despite the rising interest in the procedure, the results of the surgery cannot be guaranteed – and there also risks.

According to the NHS, the risk of death for BBL is a whopping ten times higher than any other cosmetic procedures – and it also has the highest death rate in the world of surgeries.

The NHS website stated: ''The main concern is that the injected fat can cause a blockage in a blood vessel in the lungs (pulmonary embolism), which can be fatal.''

Other additional risks include a serious skin infection, as well as lumpy scars.

Last year, Brit Carol Keenan, 54, died just days after bum lift and tummy tuck in Turkey.

Support worker Carol and partner Stevie Anderson, 55, flew from Edinburgh to Istanbul last April for the week.

She paid £7,000 for the BBL and tummy tuck.

She was offered a free third procedure – a stomach muscle repair to give her more definition – and went under the knife for six hours.

The whole trip – including the hotel and clinic – was organised as a package.

Carol came out of the surgery feeling positive, before her collapsed and died six days later on April 20.

Mum-of-three Leonie, from Glenrothes, in Fife, Scotland, said: “My mum went to Turkey for an operation and never came home.

“She had no health issues – so we think it must have been the operation – but not knowing is horrific.”

Carol's heartbroken partner Stevie echoed Leonie's warning.
