Just months before the heartbreaking announcement, Mila had revealed to her nearly 60,000 followers on Instagram that she had been suffering from psoriasis, a skin disease that causes a rash with itchy, scaly patches, since July 2023, as per theNew York Post.

She wrote in October on social media: “It’s been three months dealing with this situation, 80% of my body is affected. Juggling doctors, medications, ointments, and taking a deep breath.”

But her public health journey really began six years ago, when the Bahia-born influencer underwent a major weight loss surgery, which she commemorated in a November Instagram post juxtaposing pics of herself before and after the procedure, the Post reported.

She wrote: “Six years since a decision that changed my life in various aspects.

“On one side, the 22-year-old Mila, and on the other, the 35-year-old Mila.”

The Brazilian was especially famous for her makeup tutorials, which she posted for her over 100,000 followers on YouTube.

Mila now leaves behind her husband, George Kowszik, whom she had just married, and four children from a previous marriage, theDailyMailreported.

While cardiac complications are rare after bariatric surgery, their occurrence is associated with increased length of stay, hospital charges, and mortality, a study published onScienceDirectstates. Moreover, the study suggests that older age, male sex, cardiopulmonary co-morbidities, and fluid or electrolyte disorders are predictive of major adverse cardiac events.
