British woman dies during Thai cosmetic surgery─── 12:48 Fri, 24 Oct 2014
Bangkok - Thai authorities say a British woman has died under anesthesia during a corrective cosmetic procedure at the same Bangkok clinic.
Public Health ministry executive Boonruang Triruangworawat said Friday she was operated on by a doctor who was not certified for cosmetic surgery. He has been arrested on charges of causing reckless death.
Boonruang says the 24-year-old patient stopped breathing after receiving an anesthetic during the operation Thursday.
Thailand is known for its affordable cosmetic procedures, but there have been several deaths as a result of botched surgeries.
