Former Miss Argentina Dies after Bottom Op

This is a really sad story but shows the lengths that people go to in order to look a certain way. Former Miss Argentina, Solange Magnano who was only 38 died on Sunday after undergoing gluteoplasty - a procedure which normally involves putting implants in the buttocks to improve its shape. This turned out to be fatal as liquid injected into Magnano went straight to her lungs and brain.

Magnano who held the Miss Argentina title in 1994 leaves behing eight year old twins. According to a close friend of the model, she reportedly went ahead with this procedure as she believed that ' it was no big deal'.



The procedure itself was carried out in Argentina, where there has been a 60% increase in plastic surgery procedures in the past 5 years. This is a really sad story and highlights the dangers of undergoing inexpensive cosmetic surgery.
