Argentina Model Dies After Plastic Surgery Nightmare | ISH News

CORRECTION: Hospital Italiano in Buenos Aires, Argentina is the hospital where Silvina Luna was admitted for 79 days and then passed away. The name of the hospital where the butt lift surgery was done is not known.

Argentina actress and former model Silvina Luna died at the age of 43 on 31st August 2023. She had been hospitalized for 79 days at Hospital Italiano, Buenos Aires, Argentina due to kidney complications which were caused due to a botched Brazillian butt lift procedure performed in 2011. The actress had the procedure around June or July 2011 and it was carried out by cosmetic surgeon Dr Anibal Lotocki. 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. This is when the doctors diagnosed her with renal insufficiency and hypercalcemia, and she was put on weekly dialysis treatments. In 2016, she travelled to Miami, USA where she met with Argentinian doctor Dr Critsitan Perez, who removed the dangerous substance from her buttocks. He said, “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. As she was waiting for a new kidney, Silvina's condition deteriorated and she was hospitalized on 13th June 2023. As her condition deteriorated, she was put on a ventilator. Her brother, Ezequiel Luna, gave doctors the approval to remove her from a ventilator. Argentina’s authorities have launched a probe into Silvina's death and ordered her corpse to be sent to a city morgue for an autopsy to be carried out. Just two weeks before Silvina’s death, TV host and fashion expert Mariano Caprarola died from complications of a 2010 butt lift surgery also performed by Dr Lotocki.Dr Lotocki is also being charged with the death of a patient who died in 2021 who he had operated on in 2010. In February 2022, Dr Lotocki was sentenced to four years in prison for a medical malpractice case filed by Silvina and three other women. In July, a court banned him from practicing medicine for five years. However, the surgeon is not behind bars. He remains free while the court reviews his punishment. Silvina's attorney, Fernando Burlando said that it was an end to her sufferings and he hopes that her battle will make authorities wake up, so that society will take note and there will be no more deaths.
