Woman was left with wonky, leaking boobs after botched surgery – but only got them done to keep her boyfriend happy

A WOMAN has revealed how she was left with wonky, leaking boobs after a botched operation.

Erica decided to undergo surgery on the encouragement of her boyfriend - but has been left devastated by the result.

Appearing on TV show Botched, Erica told doctors that the bad boob job had left her with uneven breasts and a suspicious fluid leaking from them.

After requiring surgery to remove a benign lump in her breasts, her then-boyfriend suggested she receive implants at the same time.

"Occasionally in plastic surgery, a patient is doing a procedure to make a relative or a boyfriend happy," Dr Terry Dubrow explained.

"That's an enormous red flag! A plastic surgeon should never operate on a patient under those circumstances."

After several procedures, Erica found she still had her benign lump - and now had discharge emanating from her nipple too.

Deciding that she had both a 'serious cosmetic issue and a serious medical, physical, functional issue', Dr Dubrow decided to investigate.

"Right now, you have a problem and we need to be problem solvers! Right?" he told her.

He recommended that she have the implants removed, so natural breast tissue could be used to rectify the issue.

During surgery, Dr Dubrow and his team found many surprises - including 'gross fluid' and several suspicious masses - in Erica's breasts.

But they were able to give her two symmetrical, implant-free breasts.
