DEVASTATING

CAMPAIGNERS have warned that liquid Brazilian butt lifts will spark more tragedies unless they are banned in the wake of Alice Delsie Preete Webb's death.

The mum-of-five became the first Brit to die in the UK after having the non-surgical cosmetic procedure.

It involves injecting hyaluronic acid and dermal fillers into the buttocks and is often carried out by non-healthcare practitioners.

As tributes were paid to the 34-year-old beauty therapist, Ashton Collins of Save Face told how the campaign group has warned that deaths would occur if action was not taken to curb liquid BBLs.

She said: "I am devastated to hear of Alice's tragic passing "We launched a campaign in December 2023 calling upon the government to take urgent action to ban these procedures.

"We made it absolutely clear that without urgent intervention, someone would die. It makes me incredibly sad and angry that today our fear has been confirmed and a family has been shattered.
