Police are investigating the death of a young UK woman after she received an illegal buttocks injection procedure inside a Philadelphia hotel.
Claudia Adusei, 20, had come to the US with three friends to have the buttocks injection procedure performed at the Hampton Inn near the Philadelphia International Airport, reports the Associated Press.
Two of the women had visited last November to have buttocks enlargements, and the party returned with Adusei while another woman had a hip augmentation. Police believe all of the procedures were arranged over the Internet.
Detective Joseph Murray tells AP after having the buttocks injection on Monday, Adusei complained of chest pains and was later taken to a hospital and died early Tuesday.
"We're not quite sure right now if that person performing that procedure is licensed or unlicensed," Lieutenant John Walker tells the London Evening Standard.

The female "doctor" who performed the procedure seems to have disappeared once the victim began feeling ill.
The medical examiner for Delaware County says a preliminary cause of death was recorded as a heart attack, caused by silicone being injected into the woman's vascular system.
Police are seeking two people involved in the cosmetic procedures. Liquid silicone is not approved in the US for cosmetic injections.
In March 2009, a woman died in New York City of a pulmonary embolism after silicone injected into her buttocks and thighs entered her lungs.

J.Lo-Butt Implants Explode!
Tuesday April 13, 2004
A woman who yearned to have a bottom as luscious and rounded as the rear end of pop star Jennifer Lopez has found her dreams blasted to smithereens -- after her butt implants exploded!
Candy Jones- Davies, 22, vows to sue the hospital where surgeons allegedly pumped the implants so full of curve-creating air, they both blew sky-high -- right on the operating table.
And she says a surgical nurse has agreed to testify in her attempt to collect $17.5 million for medical expenses, lost future wages and emotional pain and suffering.
"She told me they had just put in the implants, when one of the surgeons -- she's not sure which one, but she knows what he said -- started saying, 'Well, if she wants J.Lo's butt, let's give it to her.' And they pumped more air into the implants. Then another one said, 'Come on, that's nothing, let's go for it.' And they just kept pushing the limit until it all just exploded."
Jones-Davies, a receptionist from Pretoria, South Africa, says that before the butt blast, she was on the verge of signing a modeling contract with the talent agency where she works.
"They told me if I got butt implants to look like J.Lo, I could be one of their top girls," she says.
Instead, Jones-Davies not only suffered second- and third-degree burns to both cheeks, but because of tissue loss her behind is even smaller and flatter than before the surgery.
"I'm flat as a board," says Jones-Davies. "No one's going to sign a fashion model who looks like an 80-year-old man from the back.
"I'm lucky to have a job at all -- I can't sit for more than 20 minutes at a time before my backside gets numb and I get stabbing pains down my legs. I'm just lucky they let me take a lot of breaks at work, or this ugly can would be getting me canned."
A hospital spokeswoman says Davies-Jones' doctors were using a new inflatable implant that adjusts to a custom-fitted size. She says the hospital may file a defective- product complaint against the manufacturer.
She adds that Jones-Davies "must also bear some responsibility" for the fanny fiasco.
"She told our doctors at the initial consultation that she wanted to 'out-J.Lo J.Lo' -- her exact words, I'm told," says the spokeswoman. "And with all due respect, she had a long way to go to even begin to have the firm, well-rounded proportions of Miss Lopez. If our doctors failed, it was in trying too hard to serve their patient.
"And," she adds, "our surgeons' quick response actually minimized the damage to Miss Jones-Davies, who would have no bottom at all if not for their knowledge and skill."
Davies-Jones angrily rejects that claim.
"I might have said something like that, but they are doctors, and they should know how far to go before it gets dangerous," she says.
"And I didn't think they'd pump me up so much I'd pop like a balloon at a kid's birthday party."
