![Story from Jam Press (Near Fatal BBL)

Woman left unable to sit for 15 WEEKS after 'near-fatal' BBL
A model claims she nearly died after spending £12,000 on a BBL in Turkey.
Sofia Lips, 27, a content creator, decided to get a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), wanting to achieve an hourglass shape.
Sofia – who previously made headlines for having Britain’s largest lips – flew to Turkey for the surgery, and claims began vomiting blood once she woke up after the op.
She claims she was flown back to the UK that day, with doctors rushing to drain the dangerous levels of fluid in her body.
Despite the 'near-fatal' incident, she says she would do it again, willing to risk her life to achieve the perfect body.
“The surgery itself went amazing, but I woke up after surgery throwing up blood,” Sofia, from Manchester, told NeedToKnow.co.uk.
“I instantly had to go to the airport because Turkey went into a red zone due to Covid in May 2021.
“There were no drains in my butt, so all the fluid was building up in me.
“The fluid was a build-up of pure blood because, after a BBL, you are fitted with drains for at least a few days, but I was woken up with nothing, no drains, no aftercare just in a faja [compression suit] being sent to an airport.
“I was totally on my own for the flight, everything.
“Just standing up was hard... I was so faint.
“I had a BBL pillow I had to sit on during take-off, then I stood the whole flight, crying behind my sunglasses until landing, [when I] sat back on my BBL pillow.
“Once I landed, I was so weak and fainting.
“I went straight home and started filling with fluid in my butt again, so I had to go to surgery at a hospital to drain it.”
After spending £2,000 to get home, Sofia was instantly rushed into surgery to drain the build-up of fluid.
Following the initial drain, she had to visit the doctors to be drained once a week for 11 weeks, each time costing he](https://www.rtl.de/img/849716/1697221293/c3_4/1920/story-from-jam-press-near-fatal-bbl-pictured-sofia-in-hospital-after-going-through-surgery-woman-left-unable-to-sit-for-15-weeks-after-near-fatal-bbl-a-model-claims-she-nearly-died-after-spending-12000-on-a-bbl-in-turkey-sofia-lips-27-a-content-creator-decided-to-get-a-brazilian-butt-lift-bbl-wanting-to-achieve-an-hourglass-shape-sofia-who-previously-made-headlines-for-having-britains-largest-lips-flew-to-turkey-for-the-surgery-and-claims-began-vomiting-blood-once-she-woke-up-after-the-op-she-claims-she-was-flown-back-to-the-uk-that-day-with-doctors-rushing-to-drain-the-dangerous-levels-of-fluid-in-her-body-despite-the-near-fatal-incident-she-says-she-would-do-it-again-willing-to-risk-her-life-to-achieve-the-perfect-body-the-surgery-itself-went-amazing-but-i-woke-up-after-surgery-throwing-up-blood-sofia-from-manchester-told-needtoknowcouk-i-instantly-had-to-go-to-the-airport-because-turkey-went-into-a-red-zone-due-to-covid-in-may-2021-there-were-no-drains-in-my-butt-so-all-the-fluid-was-building-up-in-me-the-fluid-was-a-build-up-of-pure-blood-because-after-a-bbl-you-are-fitted-with-drains-for-at-least-a-few-days-but-i-was-woken-up-with-nothing-no-drains-no-aftercare-just-in-a-faja-compression-suit-being-sent-to-an-airport-i-was-totally-on-my-own-for-the-flight-everything-just-standing-up-was-hard-i-was-so-faint-i-had-a-bbl-pillow-i-had-to-sit-on-during-take-off-then-i-stood-the-whole-flight-crying-behind-my-sunglasses-until-landing-when-i-sat-back-on-my-bbl-pillow-once-i-landed-i-was-so-weak-and-fainting-i-went-straight-home-and-started-filling-with-fluid-in-my-butt-again-so-i-had-to-go-to-surgery-at-a-hospital-to-drain-it-after-spending-2000-to-get-home-sofia-was-instantly-rushed-into-surgery-to-drain-the-build-up-of-fluid-following-the-initial-drain-she-had-to-visit-the-doctors-to-be-drained-once-a-week-for-11-weeks-each-time-costing-he.webp)
