Venezuelans have won Miss Universe seven times, giving the country a reputation as a factory of beauty queens. Perhaps that - low self esteem - is why many Venezuelan women have had their buttocks enlarged. The enlargement is a result of their being injected with liquid silicone. However, the results of these injections have been so bad that the government banned the procedure in 2012. Yet, up to 30% of women between 18 and 50 choose to have these injections, according to the Venezuelan Plastic Surgeons Association.
The results of the injections can be quite devastating - inability to walk or bend down, intense pain, allergic reactions, chronic fatigue, even death.
