Woman’s botched £5k ‘mummy makeover’ left her with only one boob – and it stank

A women was left with only one breast after plastic surgery went catastrophically wrong, before getting her boob removed she said, “It smelt like rotting flesh”

A mother was left with just one breast after she flew to Turkey for a £5,300 ‘mummy makeover’ that turned catastrophic after an infection took place.

Mother of five, Jade Tyler, 31, was forced to make a fake breast after a failed surgery and infection demanded the removal of almost all of her right breast tissue.

The stay at home mum said: “After my last child, I was overweight, had a mummy pouch and saggy boobs.

“I decided I wanted to go to Turkey to get my body back.”

Jade booked a boob job, tummy tuck, Brazilian butt lift, and liposuction at a clinic in Istanbul, Turkey for just over £5,000; a price around £15,000 less than if she decided to do operations in the UK.

After nine hours under the knife, the woman was left in agony as she bled from the surgery, however she was assured it was normal and went back to the UK.

Upon her return to her home in Essex, a 50p-sized hole in her breast developed after an infection and she was at risk of developing sepsis.

Jade said: “The smell was the most awful thing, like rotting, meat and nothing seemed to help.”

She was put onto a drainage pump to remove the build up of fluid in her breast, but her condition continued to deteriorate. Eventually, doctors said their last resort was to remove the implant alongside almost all of her right breast tissue.

Jade has been transparent about her regret of the surgery and the terrible state of her mental health following the surgery.

“The whole thing was one big agonising nightmare and I’m still not happy with how my body looks. I wish I’d never done it. It felt so important at the time but I look at old photos and feel sad now.”

“I see now that having the perfect body isn’t important – my message is to love yourself the way you are. The effect on my mental health was terrible – I felt so depressed.”
