Influencer and businesswoman Adriana García, 30, from Mexico, has died after undergoing a cosmetic procedure, with friends and family paying tribute
A popular fashion influencer has tragically died while undergoing a cosmetic procedure in Mexico.
Adriana García, 30, from Culiacan, suffered complications while undergoing the operation on Tuesday and tragically could not be saved, according to a chain of fashion shops where she worked.
Adriana, who leaves behind a six-year-old daughter, was a well-known content creator with 47,000 TikTok followers and 46,000 Instagram fans. She posted about beauty, fashion and lifestyle on social media.
Adriana worked closely with Drop Shop, a local store selling limited-edition sneakers, caps, and luxury watches.
The company confirmed her death in Culiacán in an emotional statement: “Today we say goodbye to a member of the Drop Shop family, remembering with affection her human quality, her dedication and the moments we shared by her side.
“Her memory will always remain with us. We express our most sincere condolences to her family, daughter and friends, wishing them strength and peace in these difficult moments. Rest in peace, Adriana, you will always be part of the Drop Shop family.”
Followers and colleagues flooded social media with tributes. Many described her as kind, dedicated and full of life.
Fellow influencer Kimberly Torres was one of the first to react publicly posting on Instagram: “My friend, my sister. So many years of friendship, so many beautiful moments we shared, and today I receive this news. I will love you forever, my beautiful friend.”
While a family member wrote: “There are no words to express the pain of your passing. You will always live in our hearts, in every memory, and in the immense love you left us.”
Adriana’s last TikTok video, from July 12, was a photo of her with the text “I used to be cool, now I say: no sugar please, is it lactose-free? Who’s going to be there, next time tell me in advance, please God, I can’t go because I have a class. Let’s have breakfast instead, God willing.”
In one of her latest Instagram posts, she wrote about a previous rhinoplasty: “God made me crazy, but what about the surgeon who made my nose look like bubblegum?”
Last April, she celebrated her 30th birthday amidst the sadness of losing her father and grandfather. She wrote on social media: “I always looked forward to April with great excitement.
“It was a month that meant joy to me: my birthday, vacations, and happy moments. But this year, April was completely different. In that same month, I experienced one of the greatest sorrows of my life: saying goodbye to my father and my grandfather. Two people who profoundly marked my life and my heart.”
