Cynosure Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Hospital has denied claims that a viral video showing a woman screaming during a cosmetic procedure was filmed at its facility.
The clarification comes amid growing public scrutiny following the reported death of Jessica Elena, who allegedly died after complications related to a cosmetic surgery.
In a statement shared on its Instagram page, the hospital acknowledged the disturbing video circulating widely on social media but insisted that it was not recorded at its clinic.
The management stated that, while the hospital had previously carried out reconstructive surgery for Elena, it does not know where the procedure shown in the viral footage took place.
