A model who travelled to Turkey for a Brazilian butt lift has told 5 Live that she "could have lost her leg" after the surgery went wrong.

21-year-old Darcie Russell hoped the procedure would help her in the competitive modelling industry, but was rushed into hospital after noticing her hip was red and inflamed.

Staff at Kettering General Hospital told her she had septicaemia - a potentially life-threatening infection caused by large amounts of bacteria entering the bloodstream.

Speaking to Nicky Campbell, Darcie said the complications have "put her off surgery for life."
