That’ll do, Doctor. That’ll do.
A woman in Sydney, Australia, is regretting her Brazilian butt lift after she woke up looking like “Shrek” with a “huge a – -” she claims she didn’t ask for.
Tori Dejong went viral on TikTok sharing her cosmetic surgery horror story that led her to join a class action lawsuit against her famous doctor.
DeJong first posted a TikTok video mentioning her botched BBL jokingly using the audio clip: “Fabulous, what a waste of time” as she pretended to hang up the phone.
“Me trying to convince my mum getting a BBL was a smart idea and her reply was ‘I told you so’ & correct advice so now I’m stuck with a huge a – – I don’t want anymore,” she wrote over the video.
“Learn from me – a BBL is not the ‘quick fix’ to feeling confident,” Dejong warned in her caption.
“I actually never wanted a huge a – – just slightly bigger and woke up looking like Shrek.”
In the comments, the mom-fluencer explained that she received the procedure three years ago and has been part of a class action lawsuit against her surgeon, Dr. Daniel Lanzer, for several years now.
“He ruined my legs,” which is what she originally saw the doctor to work on, she claimed. “Now I look stupid.”
In a follow-up TikTok video, DeJong said that she allegedly made an appointment with Lanzer to remove fat from her legs because she “was always insecure” about how big she thought they were.
During the consultation, she claimed the doctor suggested that DeJong use the fat from her legs to plump her buttocks to give her a “small bum like a Sports Illustrated look.”
But after waking up from the dangerous surgery, she was mortified to see that her bum had grown dramatically.
“It’s just not for me I never asked for 750ml into each but cheek,” DeJong said, claiming that the procedure made her “feel bigger” when she “actually walked in to have lipo on [her] legs & walked out with a huge a – -.”
“I’m too scared to go through fixing my legs/bbl so ill embrace my body the way it is,” she conceded.
The mother of four admitted that she wasn’t in the best mental state at the time of wanting the procedure being four and a half months post-partum and said she “wasn’t even thinking clearly about the whole thing.”
But she also blames Lanzer, claiming he allegedly said that “there was no hygiene” in his office, supposedly with “so much blood on the recovery area and no one cleaned it up.”
She also made the shocking accusation that “Dr. Lanzer would store people’s fat in fridges and put it in other patients.”
While the class action lawsuit appears to be ongoing, the celebrity cosmetic surgeon surrendered his medical registration to the national regulator on December 2, 2021, and immediately retired, according to the Sydney Morning Herald, which investigated the scandalous medical practitioner.
Lanzer promoted “himself as the world’s leading cosmetic surgeon on TV shows, in popular women’s magazines and on social media” for 30 years and reportedly accumulated over $100 million.
But after an outpouring of “safety and hygiene issues and botched surgery allegations,” Lanzer was investigated by the Australian Health Practitioner Agency and cleared his social media accounts which previously boasted millions of followers.
He then surrendered his license as he was reprimanded by regulators and shut down his practices.
BBLs, the infamous procedure popularized by Kim Kardashian, are known as the deadliest aesthetic procedure with recent data suggesting the mortality rate is only getting worse, MedPage Today reported.
Dejong has not complained of any health complications from her procedures but has struggled with the physical and mental scars.
“After a while, you learn to ignore the names people call you and just trust who you are,” she encouraged her followers and others struggling to recover from botched surgeries.
