Authorities reported that Rodriguez had sought a liposuction procedure. However, the clinic was allegedly not registered as a healthcare facility. Bogotá’s mayor, Carlos Galán, urged citizens to help identify such establishments:

“If you know of any illegal or clandestine aesthetic establishment, report it. These places cannot continue operating or claiming lives.”

On July 10, Colombia’s Health Secretariat, the Attorney General’s Office, and the National Police raided the clinic, finding evidence of unauthorised medical procedures. Officials revealed that the clinic and its doctor had previously been sanctioned in November for lacking proper licenses.

“These mandatory measures were intended to prevent risks to public health and remained in effect,” the Health Secretariat said. “Despite this, they were violated by the continued carrying out of illegal activities at that location.”

Following her death, tributes poured in on Rodriguez’s Facebook page, People reports:

“You left an indelible mark on those of us whose paths crossed with yours in this life. Rest in peace, my beautiful Nana ✨️”

She revealed in an interview with Chude Jideonwo that her decision stemmed from her passion for modelling, despite her father’s insistence on a legal career, and her belief that surgery would give her a “selling point” in the fashion industry.

The situation escalated when her family discovered the surgery after noticing foul leakage from the procedure, prompting urgent medical care and highlighting the serious risks of cosmetic surgery.
