I'm pretty sure any licensed physician can practice cosmetic surgery. Sad case. They cheaped out and also didn't use an anesthesiologist.

there is a reason why anesthesia services are expensive. they help prevent **** like this from happening.
in this case it looks like patient was given conscious sedation with what i imagine are mega doses of benzodiazepines and opioids
i doubt patient went home awake and alert, she was probably groggy as hell, hypoxemic and then hypoventilate spiral to death. The hypoventilation and acidosis would have made the local anesthetic injected all the more toxic.
 
Aside from the lethal combo of meds given to this girl (which may have contributed to her death), a BBL is very dangerous procedure in the wrong hands. I work with several plastic surgeons who perform the procedure and they were telling me that in Florida there have been multiple deaths due to one surgeon. The BBL itself is dangerous because if you get into any of the larger vessels in the glutes you can shower fat emboli, resulting in fat emboli syndrome and/or massive PE.

But these ladies had no medical training:

As bad as the faux “surgeons” are that are offering this garbage, how ****ing stupid do you have to be to agree to undergo this procedure in someone’s house though? And it’s not even cheap — it’s still over $3000! Darwinism at its finest.

There was a dentist in my residency city who had a pretty brisk business doing cheap breast implants. I think most of his clients were clueless college girls. It was really sad for them sometimes when they came out wonky.

Considering the lack of regulation around in office dentist administered sedation and GA, I’m betting the dental board has no intention of policing these types of things.

Dental board doesn't need to be involved. This is practicing medicine without a license. The BOM should take action and have the dentist prosecuted.

Apparently it’s allowed in several states. I remember hearing him advertising on the radio, I think it was like $500 per implant so $1000…

Naturopaths are doing plastic surgery stuff in AZ! I was looking for some other article and found this

www.12news.com

Plastic surgery societies call on Arizona lawmakers to stop naturopaths from performing surgeries

After the 12News I-Team exposed the practice of some naturopaths performing surgeries, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons sent a letter to lawmakers.

Nothing natural about doing that. I thought naturopaths do herbs and supplements and b.s. wtf is this

That letter from the naturopath board essentially sums up why titles and training matter.

Naturopaths call themselves physicians after they lobby legislators for the title. And by doing so they circle back to the title whenever they commit egregious acts they have no training or knowledge to perform and claiming some sort of equivalency to MDs. Real physicians call them quacks.

Oh, I agree. I didn't even see this in the news in AZ. I just stumbled upon this article. They and so many others should NOT be doing those procedures. I have a friend who is a naturopath and a PA. She said people she went to naturopath school with call themselves "doctor," but she refuses to. She wanted to have the natural background you mentioned before, and she learned to do acupuncture with it.

No anesthesiologist would ever involve themselves in this quack surgery case. So who is doing the anesthetic? And are they using herbs, spices and meditation?

So what one of my friends has told me, she's an RN who works in a medispa and has had lipo done by a vascular surgeon in the outpatient setting, is she got a dose of Ativan before getting the lipo done. (I wouldn't say no anesthesiologist would involve themselves in this. This is Phoenix. Phoenix is weird... That being said, I don't know of any who do procedures with naturopaths.)
 
So there was another death a few days later using the same combination of medications???!!!! WTF😡.

Shocking
Naturopaths are not physicians and they are most certainly not surgeons

We are physicians and we don't claim to know how to perform surgery. And here we have naturopathic quacks who call themselves physicians (laughable) who don't know what they don't know (clearly) who also think the title let's them doing anything within the realm of medical care despite no training. And is entirely incongruent with their philosophy of natural alternative treatments. I think that speaks enough into their delusion.

#1---https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?fr=yhs-trp-001&ei=UTF-8&hsimp=yhs-001&hspart=trp&p=Dentist+doing+breast+implants&type=Y143_F163_201897_102620#id=1&vid=4f0cb38ef0697a4a81cebee69ff944ad&action=click

#2-- This one is clearly OUTSIDE of the Dental Practice Act in my state!!!!
#2.5--However, my state only has 2 enforcement officers and they tend to go for the "low hanging fruit".
