Police have released the mugshot of the woman who allegedly injected silicone into the buttocks of a Kim Kardashian lookalike who later died of cardiac arrest.

Vivian Gomez, from Florida, who does not have a licence to practise medicine, travelled to a hotel in Burlingame, California, where she is believed to have given Christina Ashten Gourkani 'several injections' of silicone on April 19, according to San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.

Ms Gourkani, a 34-year-old American model who went by Ashten G online, soon began having health issues and died in hospital. Her family said she suffered a cardiac arrest, but other reports state she had a heart attack.

Ms Gomez was arrested on April 20 at Florida's Fort Lauderdale Airport, and she will be extradited to Redwood City in San Francisco, reports The Daily Post.

She faces charges of involuntary manslaughter and practising medicine without a licence resulting in great bodily injury.
