26-Year-Old Polish Woman Suffers Severe Facial Disfigurement from Illegal Silicone Injections

A 26-year-old woman from Poland, identified as Ailba, has severely disfigured her face due to daily injections of illegal silicone. Initially seeking to enhance her appearance, she resorted to uncertified cosmetic products purchased online because specialized treatments were too expensive. Medical experts warn of the risks associated with these substances, including infection and life-threatening conditions, while psychologists suggest the behavior might stem from body dysmorphia. Restoring her health is expected to be a lengthy and complex process involving medical and psychological interventions.
