Burtseva, who experienced serious health problems shortly after the buttock and tummy tuck surgery performed on January 4, lost her life.
According to local sources, it was stated that 38-year-old Burtseva suffered anaphylactic shock following the surgery.

The credentials of the doctor working at the clinic where Burtseva lost her life and the procedure records have been taken under review. Forensic experts are also continuing their work to shed light on the background of the incident.
It was stated that the famous influencer addressed her followers for the last time with a video she shot at a cafe just hours before the surgery. The tragic end of Burtseva, whose death left social media users in mourning, has brought inspections and safety debates regarding cosmetic operations back to the agenda.
