A woman’s attempt to augment her buttocks led to an unusually delayed and life-threatening infection that started to rot away her skin, doctors in Ireland say. In a new report, they describe how the 29-year-old contracted a rare infection in the same part of her buttocks where she had gotten dermal fillers injected more than a year earlier.
Though she developed sepsis and endured 18 days in the hospital, the woman was able to fully recover thanks to antibiotic therapy.
