KATIE Price’s surgeon has warned she is “dicing with death” by going under the knife again for more cosmetic surgery.
The mum-of-five flew out to Turkey this week where she’s reportedly having a facelift, tummy tuck, liposuction and bum implants.
The 40-year-old is barely recognisable from the fresh teen that started modelling after having an extensive number of procedures to her face and body.
Her decision to have yet more surgery comes after a leading plastic surgeon told Katie she would be “dicing with death”.
In an interview with the Mirror Online Dr Tijion Esho explained the former glamour model risks suffering life-threatening complications such as a heart attack or stroke.
Dr Esho said: “It’s disappointing news that Katie has gone to have more surgery after her recent visit where I advised her not to have further surgery.
“Her partner [Kris Boyson] sought my help while filming for their new show to help convince her not to have further surgery.
“With the list of treatments she is having and her prior history of surgery she is a great risk of further scarring, infection, blood clots and specifically death from a fatal fat embolus.
“In addition to this there will further risks from a prolong general aesthetic which include MI [a myocardial infarction – otherwise known as a heart attack], stroke and pulmonary embolism.”
Katie has made no secret about turning to cosmetic surgery to tweak her body after growing unhappy with her figure.
But it could come at a cost for the star who was issued with an ultimatum from her boyfriend Kris Boyson , who said he would dump her if she sneaked off for any more.
Kris even took her to see Dr Esho, who told Katie in plain terms that she should not have any more surgery.
Earlier this week, friends of the reality star confirmed she flew out to Istanbul last night to go under the knife with a British surgeon.
“Katie has been self-conscious about her looks recently, and despite joining a gym, she hasn’t got the results she wanted,” said the friend.
“Katie’s booked a whole series of procedures in Turkey, which she wants to have before flying back in time to pick up Princess and Junior after school on Friday.
“She’s telling people to ‘say goodbye to her old face’ as she’s getting a new one and has talked a lot about getting bum implants too.
“The clinic do a 2-for-1 package on lipo and a tummy tuck for £4,000, too, and she wants that so she looks slimmer. She says she doesn’t feel like herself when she’s bigger and hates recent photos of herself.
“She left Bunny and Jett with ex Kieran [Hayler] yesterday and has told Peter [Andre] she’ll be back tomorrow to pick up Princess and Junior from him then.
“Her mum Amy and boyfriend Kris [Boyson] will be furious at her, but when Katie’s got something in her head, there is no stopping her.”
Katie’s PR had no comment on the story.
Katie’s been open about her desire for surgery on her reality show My Crazy Life – with boyfriend Kris Boyson furiously telling her to eat less “then you wouldn’t need another facelift”.
