Naomi Campbell has been hospitalized in Sao Paulo and is being treated by one of Brazil’s top specialists in infectious disease, the hospital’s press office said Tuesday.
The British supermodel, a frequent visitor to Brazil, celebrated Carnival earlier this month in the northeastern city of Salvador.
She was hospitalized Sunday in Sao Paulo’s Sirio Libanes Hospital.
Campbell, 37, is under the care of David Uip, a specialist in infectious diseases, and gynecologist Jose Aristodemo Pinotti, according to the hospital.
A rep for Campbell released the following statement to Access Hollwyood:
“Naomi Campbell was admitted to hospital last night (February 25) to have a small cyst removed. Following the successful procedure, she is now resting and is looking forward to getting back to work. She would like to thank the doctors who have kindly looked after her.”
