Other serious side effects include the skin infection, cellulitis, as well as lumpy scars around the area of surgery. The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons has advised its members not to carry out BBL surgery, which the NHS says has increased the risk of people undergoing unsafe procedures abroad. The health service said overseas clinics have been at the forefront of botched cosmetic procedures in recent years with BBL surgery ‘costing as much as 70% less than in the UK’.
