Unfortunately, the pressure for women to look young and hot has reached a boiling point. A 65-Year-Old Spanish Language DJ in Miami, Betty Pino, died of  Sepsis (see footnote). She had many plastic surgeries and opted to do what doctors considered illegal silicone injections into her buttocks to give it a full look. Doctors often refuse to remove these types of injections because of the complications they can cause. The silicone can harden, causing chronic inflammation, infections or even oozing through the skin as the silicone mixes with body tissue which is what happened to Pino. She finally found a doctor to remove the silicone but she got ill and had to return to the hospital. She ended up in a coma shortly thereafter and doctors had to remove her hands and feet as her heath continued to decline. She died the next day.(Sepsis definition – Sepsis is a potentially life-threatening complication of an infection. Sepsis occurs when chemicals released into the bloodstream to fight the infection trigger inflammation throughout the body. This inflammation can trigger a cascade of changes that can damage multiple organ systems, causing them to fail. If sepsis progresses to septic shock, blood pressure drops dramatically, which may lead to death.)
