After the death of Kanye West’s mother following a plastic surgery has shocked the world, Senator Mark Ridley-Thomas and Assemblywoman Wilmer Amina Carter have both come with law projects that are aimed at protecting people who want to undergo such procedures.

During the last few years the number of plastic surgeries that were performed has raised dramaticaly and together with it the number of locations where one can get a nose job. However, locations such as outpatient clinics allow doctors to avoid the rigors they would have to face in a hospital, making surgery carried out in such facilities potentially dangerous for the patients.

The state of California already has a law that states that outpatient clinics cannot perform surgeries of any kind unless they have resuscitation equipment and procedures for transferring patients to a hospital. Senator Ridley-Thomas’s law is planned to make this law work better, by requiring regular, once every three years inspections of the facilities.

While Ridley-Thomas’s law focuses more on obtaining better and safer conditions for surgery to take place, Wilmer Amina Carter’s law regards the way patients are accepted for such medical procedures. If the project will pass, no surgery will be possible until a battery of tests won’t be run to determine the state of health of the person who wants to undergo the procedure.

Kanye West’s mother, Donda West, died six month ago following a liposuction and a breast reduction procedure. After the surgery, which lasted more than 5 hours, she was sent home, where she died of heart failure and post surgery complications.

The final coroner's report said Donda West died of "coronary artery disease and multiple post-operative factors due to or as a consequence of liposuction and mammoplasty."
