Career end due to oversized breast implants? Influencer presses for mega-compensation
London - Serious allegations against a well-known beauty doctor. After a renowned cosmetic surgeon allegedly inserted breast implants that were far too large , influencer Danielle Mansutti (30) says her career is in ruins. She considers herself "disfigured". Millions are at stake.
She became famous on YouTube for her make-up tips, well-intentioned relationship advice and trips to unusual places. 1.6 million profiles follow her on YouTube alone. However, things have recently become quieter around the beauty from England.
It has now been revealed that the 30-year-old has filed a lawsuit in a British court against the well-known plastic surgeon Dr. Domenico Mileto, reports theEvening Standard newspaper.
The allegation: Dr. Mileto is said to have advised her to get breast implants that were far too large. Since then, the influencer has felt "disfigured", she has had a "very poor cosmetic appearance" since the 2020 operation and her nipples have "turned outwards", according to the statement of claim.
She only found out from another surgeon that the silicone implants were far too large for her size 36. The alleged botch-up had caused her breast muscles on the left side to detach from the bone, resulting in severe pain and asymmetrical breasts.
Danielle Mansutti has sued the plastic surgeon for almost 2 million euros
In May 2021, she pulled the emergency brake and had the implants removed. However, the serious consequences meant that she had to leave her home in the UK, she had to "give up her work as an influencer" and her "successful social media career" came to a standstill.
Beauty doctor Dr. Mileto, on the other hand, insists that the implants were neither too large nor that there were any problems during the operation. His medical documentation states: "Now I have bra size 34B, want C/D."
Amount in dispute: 1.7 million British pounds, the equivalent of 2.04 million euros. Outcome uncertain.
