Family members of a Los Angeles woman who died after getting a discount 'mommy makeover' in Mexico have warned of the danger of plastic surgery.
Tan'Quasha Williams, 30, was tempted by images advertising perfectly enhanced bodies at cheap prices and decided to fly to Matamoros, Mexico, to undergo the plastic surgery procedure.
Williams, of Torrance, California, saved up $4000 for the 'mommy makeover', which includes a breast lift and tummy flattening - a bargain price compared to the the $25,000 it would cost in the United States.
Plastic surgeon Dr. Orlando Villanueva was pictured with Williams on February 10, 2024, which was the day of her surgery.
However, Williams tragically did not survive the surgery and her cause of death was listed as 'rupture of multiple blood vessels of the thorax and muscular region of the abdomen.'
Heartbroken family members then learned shocking news from Mexican authorities about the 'doctor'.
'The doctor was unlicensed, and the clinic was unlicensed,' Quentasia Mathis, Williams's sister said.
Despite the tragic death of Williams at the hands of the unlicensed surgeon, the advertisements for the unlicensed clinic continued to pop up on Facebook.
Her family is now going public with her story to warn other people about the dangers of plastic surgery outside of the country.

(the ‘mommy makeover’)
OK
Yeah… My give a damn is broke
Vanity is a cruel temptress, and has deprived this woman of her life and her child of a mother. I hope all will be above joking at her expense. Lacking perspicacity and foresight is the ruin of many, and (almost) no one deserves to die this way. Rest in Peace, Tan’Quasha Williams.
Probably exercise and a proper diet may have gone a long ways not only would have saved her a lot of money but her life as well. However there are a lot of people who consider exercise only as the last resort.
...being a gluttonous corpulent hambeast.
[Yeah, well I’ve heard horror stories of medical calamities in those other countries, as well.
For those who have come home in one piece, it’s just sheer luck.
The facilities low-ball the procedures’ cost cause they know many will fall for it.]
But she had a nice permanent tan even though the Mexicans Quashaed her.
Her sister La Toilet was deeply saddened.
just stand back and let lefties cull themselves I say.
LOL
Sono Bello
I pray her soul is gorgeous to Jesus.
Hoochi-Lift and Booty-Ratchet.
“Tan’Quasha”
Is she Tan and ended up quashed?
LOLOL
I thought she looked kind of pretty...too bad she wasn't smarter.
I take it back...NOT so pretty when I looked at photos in the article.
They almost always put a "Qu" somewhere in there.
She found a cut rate deal
Facebook? No way. They have standards and fact checkers, and snopes.
Thanks for finding that, although there was an actual Miami case of a migrant posing as a surgeon, who unintentionally killed his patient.
Thinking that “Fix-a-Flat” would actually work, the patient lived for weeks until she didn’t!
