Warning after woman dies following 'arm tuck' in Turkey

On 7 May, she sent a video of her arm to the hospital, and was told it would be shown to a doctor, but did not hear back.

On 11 May, she told her daughter her arm was “killing her”.

Six days later, Mrs Towlson was found dead.

The report said police photographs showed “the tummy tuck wound healing nicely” but “open wounds to Mrs Towlson’s armpits and triceps” with her right arm “weeping and swollen”.

A post-mortem examination to determine the cause of death was inconclusive.

Her inquest was unable to secure any information from the hospital including what the surgery consisted of, Ms Thistlethwaite said.

“On the balance of probabilities, Mrs Towlson was not given enough time to properly consider this decision,” the coroner added.

The report was sent to Green Park Hospital in Turkey, as well as the British Association of Aesthetics Plastic Surgeons.
