Woman can no longer close her eyes after plastic surgery by ‘fake doctor’ saw her eyelids ‘turned inside out’

A woman couldn’t close her eyes after having plastic surgery with a ‘fake’ Russian medic.

Alleged ‘pseudo’ plastic surgeon Tatyana Stankevich, 38, who denies any wrongdoing, has been placed under house arrest pending trial.

One of her patients – named Lyubov, 53, from Moscow – went to her for eyelid surgery to remove excess skin from the lower eyelids, but says she had serious complications.

“I had huge bruises under my eyes after the operation,” Lyubov said. “My eyelids started turning inside out and severe tears started forming.”

She could no longer close her eyes. ‘I realized something was seriously wrong. But (the surgeon) kept convincing me that the symptoms would go away, that the skin would tighten.

‘She injected the lower eyelids with medicine. I think she gave me a false sense of security.

‘Then she went on holiday… I was getting worse and worse.’

She went to another clinic for advice and was immediately told that she urgently needed treatment to correct the horror.

Lyubov then reported to the police what happened to her.

The operation took place in Stankevich’s apartment in Moscow, from where she ran her company ‘Beauty Therapy’.

But investigators say she was just a beautician and not qualified to perform surgery.

Reports say she has operated on several people and clients have not asked about her qualifications.

The company director told her patients that she had performed operations at home before and that they had always gone well, according to reports.

However, two other female patients also filed complaints with the Russian Investigative Committee.

One required intensive care treatment after reportedly having surgery at a medical center.

Stankevich’s home was raided by police, who reportedly discovered that she was not qualified to perform operations.

“During the searches, the suspect’s mobile phone was found, which contained images of the actions she had performed,” the committee said.

The patient, named Lyubov, is from the Moscow region. She filed a complaint with the police after a second surgeon said she needed urgent intervention

She could no longer close her eyes. ‘I realized something was seriously wrong. But (the surgeon) kept convincing me that the symptoms would go away, that the skin would tighten.”

‘Unregistered medicines have also been found. It was found that the operations were performed both in the absence of an appropriate license in a medical center and at home by a doctor who had no training in plastic surgery.

‘The suspect has been arrested. She was put under house arrest.’

‘This is a complete forgery. It is a criminal case, there is simply no crime. If the patient herself says that she is satisfied with everything, then there is simply no crime,” Stankevich reportedly insisted.

Stankevich will remain under house arrest until the hearing on January 29

“No operations were performed in the apartment. Both were at the clinic. But one of the patients knew my home address. She once came late at night so I could give her some help,” Stankevich claims, according to REN TV.

“The second patient, the one with the eyelids, violated all recommendations, she was self-medicating,” she added.

Lyubov claims that Stankevich chose to operate on her at her home and had done the same to “many other people” and to “clients’ homes.”

Police are continuing their investigation, including whether additional patients seeking low-cost surgery have been affected.

She will remain under house arrest until the court hearing on January 29.
