Solange Magnano
A former Miss Argentina, Solange Magnano, died from complications of a butt firming plastic surgery procedure, which resulted in a deadly blood clot. The Times revealed Magnano, "Died of a pulmonary embolism after undergoing a gluteoplasty." She leaves behind two children and a husband.
Beauty is not worth dying for. Some plastic surgery procedures, more than others, carry a greater risk of complications. No surgery should be taken lightly.
Beauty queen Solange Magnano 'died for a firmer behind'
A former Miss Argentina has died after undergoing cosmetic surgery to get firmer buttocks.
Solange Magnano, 38, died of a pulmonary embolism after undergoing a gluteoplasty in Buenos Aires, a normally routine procedure which involves placing implants in the buttocks to give them a firmer outline.
The mother of eight-year-old twins, who won the beauty crown in 1994, died on Sunday after three days in a critical condition. Roberto Piazza, a close friend, claimed that the procedure also involved injections and the liquid "went to her lungs and brain".
"This woman who had everything is dead because she wanted to have a slightly firmer behind," said Mr Piazza, a fashion designer.
Gluteoplasty has grown in popularity recently as women attempt to replicate the curvy shapes of music and film stars such as Jennifer Lopez and Sandra Bullock. According to a survey by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, J-Lo's rear is rated number one by plastic surgeons' patients seeking to remake their buttocks.
