A 30-year-old nurse who allegedly attempted to perform liposuction on herself has died.
A report by The New York Post states that the nurse was reportedly found unconscious in a doctor’s office after she performed lipo on her stomach.
Dr. Rolando Samper Mendoza, the owner of Clinica Amper in Mexico, said she gave herself anesthesia to perform the procedure, for which she had no training.
She died of cardiorespiratory arrest shortly after she was found by a co-worker, who alerted paramedics and attempted to revive her.
Dr. Samper said the woman, who was only identified as Carina, tried to perform the procedure “without [his] authorization or permission.” He added, “One of my nurses named Carina…decided on her own to perform abdominal liposuction with [a] local anesthetic.
The result of this incomprehensible action was that she died as a result of the massive absorption of anesthetic that she administered herself.”
