Former Miss Argentina Dies from Plastic Surgery


Argentina, a country ranking only eleventh in the world for plastic surgeries per capita, has lost a beauty queen. Former Miss Argentina (1994), Solange Magnano, died at the age of 37 after complications resulting from her elective surgery on her buttocks. Three days after undergoing gluteoplasty, a plastic surgery procedure enhancing the buttocks, Magnano died as a result of the injections used for the operation. The liquid from the injections traveled to her lungs and brain. This condition is otherwise known as pulmonary embolism, a blockage of the main artery of the lung caused by a substance in the body which travels through the bloodstream. Magnano leaves behind her two 7 -year-old twin daughters.

Latin American countries such as Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico are increasingly becoming popular tourist destinations for plastic surgery, becoming part of the medical tourism industry.

    Hi how are you?

    I was looking through your blog, and I found it interesting, and inspiring to me, so I thought why not leave you a comment.

    I too have a blog that I use out of Southern California here in San Diego.

    Mostly it is a collection of artistic expression, and I have many friends with the same interests, maybe you can become my friend, and follow, and I can also follow you, if that is okay.

    Well I hope to hear from you soon, and or read about you….LOL

    Sincerely,
    Jesse
