Miss BumBum runner-up hospitalized after bad plastic surgery to enlarge thighs

A 27-year-old Brazilian reality TV star who was runner-up in a best-buttocks competition has been hospitalized with complications from a cosmetic procedure she underwent a few weeks ago to enlarge her thighs.
The Conceição Hospital Group in the southern city of Porto Alegre said Wednesday that Andressa Urach, who placed second in the notorious Miss BumBum contest in 2012, was hospitalized Monday evening with an infection in her thighs.
She underwent two procedures at the hospital to drain a substance called aquagel that is used in Brazil as an alternative to cosmetic implants.
Urach was sedated for the procedures, but the hospital said in a statement Wednesday that she had awoken and been off a respirator.
About two weeks ago, Urach thanked her surgeon, Julio Vedovato, on her Instagram account,calling him "the best plastic suregon in Porto Alegre."


She might have second thoughts about that assessment now.
