Poison Friends! I hope we are all well wherever we are! We need to discuss Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery, because I have been bothered by the amount of stories out there concerning scammers and frauds doing great harm to those looking for these procedures. First let's discuss the history behind this branch of medicine, because we all love some history (I hope lol). Then we need to talk about the procedure with the highest mortality rate currently: The BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift). This one has been quite popular due to the influence of certain celebrities and influencers out there promoting recent beauty standards (another topic of discussion here). It is a risky procedure on its own, but why? And what has made it so risky in specific areas such as South Florida?

There have also been so many cases of botched fillers and botox out there because of the amount of unqualified, untrained, and even outright frauds posing as medical professionals performing such procedures and using substances that should not be injected into the human body. We are discussing a few well known cases, such as Cardi B and Lisa Marie Presley, but also cases of small time, social media scammers promising cheap and fast results (please, please be careful out there y'all). Another case we are discussing, that was definitely newsworthy, led to the poisoning death of a young, beautiful, and smart Filipino-American woman by the name of Maria Cruz in NY. This case has quite a lot of twists and turns and will likely leave you infuriated.

Finally, after so many case discussions and our opinions on certain procedures, beauty standards in general, and the dangers of not knowing who exactly is performing a procedure for you, we will run through a list of red flags to look out for.

**Also, Patrons! I have not forgotten that I wanted to do our first Patreon livestream this week! I am looking into how to start that up and how to include everyone there and also whether the internet where we currently are (out of town for the week) will suffice lol
