In a tragic incident in Rome, 22-year-old Agata Margaret Spada from Sicily died following a rhinoplasty procedure at an unauthorized medical facility.

The president of the Lazio region, Francesco Rocca, highlighted that the clinic was not certified for such procedures.

This incident has sparked a debate within the Italian Society of Plastic Surgery, which criticized the growing trend of medical procedures being advertised on social media platforms like TikTok.

They warn that these platforms often present misleading information about the qualifications and legitimacy of medical services.

The case underscores the urgent need for stricter regulations and oversight in the advertising and execution of medical procedures to prevent such tragedies.
