areas to reduce the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks.
Her brother, Claudio Bertoldi has said Claudia was undergoing her second session of Carboxytherapy at
the center when she suffered complications.
Claudio said that Canal 5 Noticias staff “administered carbon dioxide intravenously,” which made her
heart “explode.” “They injected that into her veins, it went to her heart and they exploded it,” he said.

be applied to the face, buttocks, stomach, and legs.
