If this doesn’t scare women away from butt implants, what will? April Brown of Los Angeles ended up a multiple amputee after suffering multiple infections that came in the wake of butt injections. Doctors were forced to remove Brown's legs and part of her arms.

Brown refers to herself as a survivor, and feels a strong bond to other women who have suffered painful ailments as the result of this illegal procedure. Brown intends to become a motivational speaker and guide young women struggling with body image issues.

Back-alley butt shots are not worth your life. Your health and well being are things to be proud of that nobody can take away from you.
