Former Miss Argentina Dies After Bottom Operation

Solange Magnano, 38, passed away on Sunday after suffering complications resulting from cosmetic surgery, friends said.

"A woman who had everything lost her life to have a slightly firmer behind," said Roberto Piazza, a fashion designer and friend of the model who often walked the runway in his shows.

He said she underwent a gluteoplasty – a procedure which normally involves placing implants in the buttocks to improve their outline – which turned fatal when liquid injected "went to her lungs and brain."
