Police investigates if the death of a beauty businesswoman is related to cosmetic surgery

The Civil Police is investigating the potential connection between the death of aesthetic entrepreneur Priscila Lopes Dorneles de Souza and surgical procedures she underwent shortly before her death.

The Civil Police in Brazil is presently investigating the death of 31-year-old Priscila Lopes Dorneles de Souza, an entrepreneur from the beauty industry, to determine if there is any link to the cosmetic surgeries she underwent just two days prior to her demise. Priscila was found dead by her sister in her home after she had undergone liposuction, mastopexy with implants, and scar correction. The police emphasize that thorough investigative procedures have been initiated, including on-site examination and forensic analysis by the Goiás Technical-Scientific Police, which will be included in their official report.

The surgeries took place at the Grand Santa Maria Hospital in Goiânia on Thursday, two days before her body was discovered. Priscila was not only an entrepreneur but also had a background in biomedicine and ran her own clinic, PD Clinic, focusing on aesthetic treatments in Inhumas, Goiânia, and Anápolis. The circumstances surrounding her death have raised significant concerns regarding post-surgery care practices and patient safety in the cosmetic surgery industry.

The Grupo Everbeauty, the group responsible for her surgery, has stated that she was discharged from the hospital following the procedures. This incident raises important questions about the supervision and aftercare provided in cosmetic surgeries, which are often elective and can carry substantial risks. The ongoing police investigation aims to address these concerns while also shedding light on the broader implications for the industry as a whole, particularly in light of the increasing popularity of cosmetic surgeries among young adults in Brazil.
