Argentina actress Silvina Luna Dies At 43 After Botched Brazilian Butt Lift
Argentine actress and former model Silvina Luna is no more. She was 43. She was hospitised and was under treatment for
79 days due to kidney complications as a result of a botched Brazillian butt lift procedure performed in 2011.
Luna breathed her last onThursday, August 31. She had been hospitalised for 79 days at Hospital Italiano where she was treated for complications as a result of her 2011 surgery, reports mirror.co.uk.
Her brother, Ezequiel Luna, gave doctors the approval to remove her from a ventilator at noon on Thursday, according to local news outlets. Silvina’s attorney, Fernando Burlando, said the tragic loss was “an ending that aches, hurts”. He hopes her battle will make authorities “wake up, so that society will take note and there will be no more deaths”.
The actress had the procedure around June or July 2011 and it was carried out by cosmetic surgeon Anibal Lotocki.
Dr Lotocki is being charged with the 2021 death of a patient he operated on in 2010. He injected Silvina with a liquid that contained polymethylmethacrylate, which is banned by Argentina’s National Administration of Drugs, Food and Medical Technology.
Silvina first required medical attention in 2015 when she was treated for kidney stones. Doctors diagnosed her with renal insufficiency and hypercalcemia, and she was put on weekly dialysis treatments until a kidney transplant was available. In 2016, she travelled to Miami where she met with Argentinian doctor Critsitan Perez, who removed the dangerous substance from her buttocks.
Speaking to C5N television, he explained: “Silvina developed an autoimmune disease caused by the medications as a consequence of her surgeries. All patients develop severe kidney failure and end up dying.
