Beauty therapist died after taking flight eight days before cosmetic surgery operation
Louise Harvey, 36, from Norwich, died on July 5 2018 after undergoing the procedures in London on June 17 2018.
A post-mortem examination recorded that the mother of three died of a bilateral pulmonary embolism, a blood clot that occurs in the lungs.

Linda Harvey, 53, said that her daughter had been on a family holiday to Bulgaria, with flights of around three hours each way, from June 3 to June 9 2018.
Norfolk's area coroner Yvonne Blake read a statement from Mrs Harvey to Tuesday's hearing in Norwich.
In the statement, Mrs Harvey said the flights were from Norwich Airport to Bulgaria direct and "I believe were just over three hours each way".

Anaesthetist Thaventhran Prabhahar, who worked on Ms Harvey for the cosmetic surgery, said that a flight would only have been a consideration if it was long-haul of more than five hours and "a week or five days within surgery".
He added that he had not been aware of Ms Harvey's flight at the time.
Dr Prabhahar said surgeon Manish Sinha, who performed the operations, told him that Ms Harvey would be treated as high risk.

He said the treatment pathway would have been the same with both.
Dr Sinha said earlier in the inquest that he was not aware of Ms Harvey's family history of blood clots at the time of the surgery.
Dr Prabhahar said that if the risk with Ms Harvey was "anything more serious then you would have expected it to be investigated".
