A young, mum-of-two influencer has died after undergoing a butt lift operation.
Aline Maria Ferreira da Silva fell ill the day after having 30ml of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) reportedly injected into each buttock.
Her husband took her to hospital the next day and they were told her high fever was “normal” and prescribed an antipyretic.

However, the 33-year-old model’s condition continued to worsen after the procedure in Goiânia, south west of Brasilia, Brazil.
She was hospitalised in a serious condition in Brasília on Saturday (29 Jun) after experiencing severe abdominal pain and dizzy spells.
Ferreira suffered a heart attack and passed away on Tuesday (2 Jul), 10 days after the PMMA procedure.
Her mother said she had undergone plastic surgeries to her eyes, nose and mouth at the same clinic and “everything had gone well.”
She added: “Because she had done so many operations there, she completely trusted the clinic owner.
“My daughter was healthy, she was fine.
“I want justice, justice has to be done.”
The model had over 40,000 followers on social media and promoted cosmetic procedures, as reported by Need To Know.
She will be buried at the Campo da Esperança cemetery in Brasília today (4 July).
She leaves behind two teenage children.
The owner of the clinic was arrested by the police on 3 June.
Her clinic was allegedly not registered to carry out such a procedure.
The investigation into the influencer’s death is ongoing.
