A beauty therapist to the stars has died after battling cancer for a second time.

Gloria Hincapié had body contour spas situated all over the US and South America.

She is famous for developing the Hincapié Technique, which manually eliminates fat concentrated in specific areas of the body.

The treatment is said to hit spots “where no machine, amount of exercise or diet can reach”, according to her website.
