All that to get rid of hairy pits and BO. Damn

Yeah. What a way to be remembered. Died while getting rid of hairy armpits. And called out for using steroids too.

This happened in Mexico but the details are really sketch. The person who administered thr anesthetic is not trained in it? The real wild west.

Miradry website says it’s done under local anesthesia. Maybe an intravascular injection.

lol right? Imagine being so inadequately trained in anesthesia to think that steroids had anything to do with this.
 
Seems totally unnecessary. And egregious if someone is doing it without training in anesthesia. I imagine this is just another case of oversedation and unrecognized hypoxemia. Common things being common.

Why? It takes 10 seconds to do and you don't need much sedation afterwards. At least the patient is very unlikely to die on the table with that.
 

This was the "steroid" the patient took. It js a b2 agonist used for asthma, but also used by body builders as a stimulant and thermogenic drug.
It's also known for causing pulmonary hypertension, which is why it was pulled from US market years ago if I'm not mistaken.
