  (#6) Dr. Peter Normann Found Guilty Of Three Patient Deaths

  (#1) Dr. Denis Furtado Performed Procedures In His Apartment

  Known as "Dr. Bum Bum" due to specializing in gluteal augmentation, Brazilian Dr. Denis Furtado routinely performed plastic surgeries inside his Rio de Janeiro home. In August 2018, a 46-year-old woman came to Furtado for injections to enlarge her buttocks but became ill in Furtado's apartment following the procedure. Furtado drove the woman to a hospital, but she passed away later that day. Prosecutors charged Furtado with murder. The police also arrested the doctor's mother and girlfriend, who may be charged as accomplices. 

  As part of the procedure, Furtado injected the woman with a dose of PMMA, an acrylic glass filler. While used in plastic surgery, it is meant to be employed in limited amounts. Furtado injected his patient with 300 milliliters of PMMA, which investigators believe led to her death shortly thereafter. 

  Furtado has since defended himself, claiming he has performed the same procedure many times before without complication and what occurred was a "fatal accident." The surgeon has a large social media following via Instagram and many women credit him with successfully improving their appearance. However, the president of the Brazilian Plastic Surgery Society spoke out against Furtado after the woman's death and condemned Furtado for performing surgery inside an apartment.

  (#9) Carlos Gustavo Arzuz Performed Surgeries In Illegal Clinic 

  In 2013, plastic surgeon Carlos Gustavo Arzuza performed a liposuction procedure on Roberto del Barco, 45. Barco died from complications with the anesthesia Arzuza improperly administered. Authorities investigated Arzuza on suspicions of negligence and fraud but never convicted him.

  In 2016, another patient, Isabel Beatriz Gattari, 49, died shortly after Arzuza performed cosmetic surgery on her in his unauthorized Mendoza clinic in Argentina. Gattari's death resulted in homicide charges for Arzuza and Laura Dutta, his wife and assistant.

  Reportedly, authorities apprehended the surgeon after he performed a botched penile enlargement procedure on himself. In 2018, Argentinian officials found Arzuza guilty of manslaughter.

  (#11) Dr. Alireza Sadeghi Was Charged with Raping His Wife and Illegally Filming Female Patients

  In May 2016, New Orleans authorities indicted plastic surgeon Dr. Alireza Sadeghi on charges of rape and voyeurism. Sadeghi’s ex-wife alleged her husband sexually assaulted her as well as illegally videotaped his female patients. The report maintained Sadeghi filmed his patients without their consent while they undressed and later when they were unconscious. 

  In March 2017, the courts dismissed the felony charges, but Sadeghi pled guilty to one misdemeanor count of negligent injury. As a result, the state suspended his medical license for six months.
