Model’s bid to develop into ‘final bimbo’ left her with leaky boobs after botched Turkey op

A model said she nearly died after a botched boob job in Turkey left them leaking with green gunk.

Sofia Lips claims to have spent over £500,000 in total on cosmetic procedures including £50,000 on lip filler because she wanted to have the ”UK’s biggest lips.”

In one of her bids to change her image, the 27-year-old had her boob job in December 2022 after forking out £6,000 to go from 450cc to 800cc.

After flying back to the UK, the putrid fluid started oozing out of her bandages and she was rushed to hospital and diagnosed with sepsis.

Doctors told Sofia she may not survive unless they removed the left implant – but she refused because she didn’t ”want to lose” the ”perky breasts” she had paid so much for and gone through so much to have.

Sofia was then given antibiotics to clear the infection and she spent weeks in hospital recovering.

Discussing her terrifying ordeal, the content creator from Manchester, told NeedToKnow: “It was such a mess.

“I literally nearly died as it got so bad.

“The surgery itself went fine, but as soon as I arrived home, the nightmare began.

“I had a burning sensation that was unbearable, followed by swelling.

“As I looked down, there was green gunk all over my bandages from where I was leaking.

“I didn’t know what was going on – and I worried my life was on the line.

“Thankfully, as I started to respond to the antibiotics and slowly got better, the infection soon went away.”

Sofia was determined to not let this setback stop her from enhancing her assets.

In January 2023, she went to a different clinic in Turkey and had 1050cc implants fitted – the biggest silicone implants made – and now, she’s really happy with her breasts.

She hopes speaking out about her experience will raise awareness about the risks of boob jobs, especially as a recent study by ScienceDirect found 75% of surgeries carried out in Turkey end with complications.

Sofia also told how she has not been put off having cosmetic surgery by her ordeal and is planning on having liposuction in a few weeks.

She said: ”I love being able to change myself.

“I want to be my own creation.

“It was scary and one of the worst things I have ever been through; but I made it out alive.

“I was too embarrassed to share my story before, as I worried what people would think – especially as I’ve had more surgery since – but it’s so important to talk about.

“Always research, look at reviews from reputable people, and never go for any surgery because it’s cheap.

“Now, I love my boobs, but I want them even bigger.”
