Influencer Bianca Dias has died days after undergoing a cosmetic surgery procedure.
The Brazilian content creator died on Thursday, February 19, according to her loved ones. Dias, who was known for documenting her experience as a model, most recently shared content from a vacation in London in December 2025. Those posts appeared to be her last activity on social media.
Dias’ friend Jeff Carlos took to Instagram to share news of her death, writing, “Death is nothing at all. Our bond has not been broken.”
Patrícia Ganden, who is also a social media creator, shared a tribute for Dias.
Social media is paying tribute to many influencers who died in 2026. While recording a private New Year’s Eve livestream, Sergio Jiménez died at age 37.

Borges continued: “I want to thank the countless messages, thank you all who took the time to worry and send messages, if you can pray for the family regardless of religion, I will be extremely grateful! 🤍.”
A wake was held for Dias on Friday, February 20, in São Paulo, Brazil.

Jéssica Daugirdas died one month prior at age 35 after being hospitalized with sepsis amid her colorectal cancer battle. “It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Jessica,” her family wrote in a statement via Instagram. “God, in His infinite wisdom, has taken our warrior to be with Him, after she fought bravely until the end, with strength, faith and courage.”
The statement continued: “In this time of grief, we unite in prayer so that the Lord may comfort the hearts of all family and friends, and that the peace of Christ may sustain each one.”
That same month, Esther Thomas died after undergoing surgery.
