US Edition14-Year-Old Mexican Dies After Secret Breast Surgery
Authorities in Durango, Mexico, investigate the death of 14-year-old Paloma Nicole following an allegedly unauthorized breast surgery amid conflicting cause of death reports.
- On Saturday, September 20, Paloma Nicole Arellano Escobedo died in Durango a week after undergoing breast augmentation on September 12, allegedly performed by Víctor 'N.' without her father's knowledge.
- Carlos Arellano said he was told she had COVID and was isolating in the Durango mountains, while Paloma underwent surgery and he was first contacted about her hospitalization on Monday, September 15.
- Medical staff said the surgery triggered cardiorespiratory arrest and severe brain swelling, leading to an induced coma and ventilator use before doctors found brain death on an electrocardiogram.
- Durango authorities opened a criminal probe and provisionally suspended the doctor, with the Durango Prosecutor's Office investigating neglect and negligent homicide while the final autopsy, which could take 20 days, is pending.
- The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports cosmetic procedures on patients aged 13–19 rose to 286,690 by 2024, amid public debate sparked by Paloma's death and a planned march on September 27.
