(Dying to be beautiful) 10 Famous Plastic Surgery Death

1- Wang Bei

Chinese singer Wang Bei, 24, suffered respiratory and circulatory failure in November 2010 after she reportedly sought a facial enhancement.

She came into the public eye as a contestant of an American Idol-style show. (See pictures of the aspiring star.)

The exact cause of death is swamped in rumors.

 2- Solange Magnano

In 2009, the former South American beauty queen, modeling agency head and mother died of a pulmonary embolism at age 37.

Her death was linked to gluteoplasty.

3- Rohie Kah-Orukotan

This 37-year-old mother of three — who was no stranger to medical practice — went to a Florida facility for liposuction in 2009.

There, she experienced seizures and was rushed to a hospital, with disastrous results.

4- Maritess Lopez

Lopez died at age 36 after obtaining a "mommy makeover" in 2008.

Her Virginia Beach doctor released her an hour after the procedure, but she began experiencing adverse side effects at home.

5- Donda West

The death of this scholar and mother of a hip-hop star made huge headlines in 2007.

The 58-year-old had gone to a high profile surgeon to have a tummy tuck and breast reduction and died of a heart attack the next day.

Though the procedure may have played a role in her death, the coroner ruled out  wrongdoing.

6- Olga Arroyo 

In 2007, 41-year-old Arroyo, a New Jersey police officer, underwent plastic surgery in a private home at the hands of an unlicensed Colombian native.

She died on the scene from a fatal injection.



 

7- Kathleen Kelly Cregan

In 2005, Cregan secretly traveled from her home abroad, with the intent of surprising her husband with a new look given by a New York City doctor.

(How did she hear of him?) She went into cardiac arrest hours after the procedure and died at age 42.

8- Olivia Goldsmith

The best-selling author of this book-turned-film checked into a Manhattan clinic in 2004.

Goldsmith (what's her real name?) wanted a chin-tuck — one of many procedures she'd sought from the same doctor —
but went into a coma shortly after the surgery began and died several days later at age 54.

9- Susan Malitz

In 2004, 56-year-old Malitz checked into a scandal-plagued New York hospital to undergo a routine facelift from a top doctor.

As the Connecticut woman was being prepped for surgery, she went into cardiac arrest and died shortly thereafter.

10- Julie Rubenzer

Rubenzer, 38, went to a Florida-based doctor in search of a breast augmentation in 2003.

 There were many red flags, including the doctor's training, certification and lack of medical privileges. 

The patient stopped breathing, went into cardiac arrest, never regained consciousness and was taken to her hometown, where she died three months later.
