Kuala Lumpur - A Malaysian woman, in a bid to become a man by removing her breasts, lost both her nipples after botched sex-change surgery, reports said on Friday.
The 36-year old woman, who wished to be known only as Sam, also suffered a serious infection and scarring due to the operation, the Star daily reported.
Sam said she went to a beauty salon in Selangor state in May for the procedure after she was promised a specialist from China.
She claimed she was instead treated by an inexperienced Malaysian at a clinic in Johor state, the report added.
The victim lodged a police report after allegedly receiving threats from the salon operator for demanding compensation.
