Fazio's death, following a backstreet operation, was announced on her Instagram account, which has a significant following of 941,000. The devastating post read, "Unfortunately, our warrior has passed away. I will soon announce here the times of her farewell. Once again, we thank everyone for their support."

Fazio was known for her stunning looks and impressive physique

Prior to her untimely death, Fazio underwent the procedure after her then-boyfriend expressed a desire for her to have a larger derriere. As a model, Fazio felt pressured to meet certain physical standards and sought out surgery to enhance her buttocks. In an interview last year, she candidly discussed her motivations, stating, "Since I work in modeling, everyone wanted to have a bigger bum than the other. And this is what happened: I looked at myself in the mirror, I had a small bum, and I wanted to enhance it."

The model said she felt the pressure from the modelling industry to have a larger rear end 

However, Fazio's partner was unsatisfied with the initial results, leading her to seek another round of filler injections. She explained, "My boyfriend said that 'a big bum is better,' so I went to a clandestine place, had it done, and it grew." Unfortunately, the filler used, PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), started to cause complications. Fazio had the substance removed by a doctor in December 2021, but the damage had already been done, and she began experiencing infections as the substances spread through her body.

Fazio's health deteriorated further, and she suffered a stroke, which ultimately led to her hospitalization three weeks prior to her passing. This was not her first encounter with medical complications from cosmetic procedures. Last year, she spent over 100 days in the hospital having fillers removed from various parts of her body.

PMMA, the substance used in Fazio's buttock implants, is a synthetic resin commonly employed as a soft-tissue filler. However, its usage carries inherent risks. Concerns regarding the use of PMMA were also echoed by one of Fazio's friends in a post shared on her Instagram page, stating, "Guys, until when will these murderous doctors continue to use PMMA on people? This is a crime! It should be prohibited. Rest in peace, Lygia Fazio."

Fazio had been advised against using PMMA by her doctor prior to the ill-fated procedure. Despite the warning, she went ahead with 450 milliliters of PMMA injected into each side of her buttocks. Her funeral and cremation took place in Taboao da Serra, Brazil, on Thursday, June 1, where family, friends, and fans gathered to bid a final farewell to the beloved model.
