Jacky Oh's surgeon Dr Zach breaks his silence following her death days after surgery

Jacky Oh's surgeon Dr Zachary Okhah has broken his silence following her death at the age of 32.

MTV star Jacky revealed she was having "mommy makeover" surgery with Dr Zach just days before her sudden death.

The plastic surgeon who specialises in liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift surgery at his clinic in Miami has now posted a statement on Instagram but didn't mention Jacky and her cause of death still remains a mystery.

"To all my past, current and prospective patients, PH-1 Miami remains devoted to the highest quality medical care," he said.

"All aesthetic procedures are performed in a hygienically safe environment to universally recognized medical standards.

"I am relentlessly committed to advancing techniques in the realm of plastic surgery."

He continued: "Most importantly, my staff and I ensure that each patient is vetted, prepped and treated according to their individual patient history prior to any surgery.

"Our mission is to help our patients achieve the best possible results in the safest and most medically appropriate way possible."

The former Wild N Out girl posed in a hospital gown with Dr Zach as she boasted about her plans to go under the knife following the birth of her son Prince who was born last year.

“Getting ready for my mommy makeover with Dr Zach!! Stay tuned to my YouTube for the full reveal!” she wrote in her Instagram caption.

A mommy makeover typically includes any combination of a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, liposuction, and vaginal rejuvenation surgery. Traditionally, it entails a tummy tuck and breast augmentation.

The star whose real name is Jacklyn Smith shared three children, Nova and Nala, and son Prince with her partner and fellow Wild N Out star DC Young Fly. She died aged 33.

DC reportedly heard the news while filming with his crewmates on the set of the Nick Cannon-led improv show in Atlanta.

Jacky's family shared a statement confirming her "tragic and unexpected" death.

“It is with sadden (sic) hearts we share with you that Jacklyn aka MsJackyOh has passed away on Wednesday, May 31st 2023,” the Smith family said. “Our family is still processing this very tragic and unexpected loss; we ask that you please give us privacy during this time.”

A BET representative shared the following statement about their employee, writing: "We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jacklyn Smith, known to the world as Jacky Oh, a talented ‘Wild N’ Out’ family member whose impact will be forever treasured and missed.

“Jacky Oh was a loving friend and beloved colleague of the ‘Wild N’ Out’ cast throughout five seasons. More importantly, she was a tremendous mother to three beautiful children.

“The BET Media Group extends our sincere condolences to the Smith family, DC Young Fly, B Simone, Nick Cannon, and all friends who loved and cared for Jacky Oh during this difficult time.”
