ABSTRACT

The disease by modelantes is a pathology causing deformity, incapacitation and in some cases could be lethal. This is affecting our population who is trying, by any means, to comply with a social standard of beauty, at a low cost. Since 1886 the pathology of modelantes was defined like the injection of non tolerated substances by the body. This ailment and its degree of complication may vary so much and is so imprecise in its behavior, that it is crucial that the plastic surgeon and or the doctor know of the existence of this disease for its most adequate treatment. This is not new; there have been many studies in Mexico as in the United States which describe the clinic evolution of targeted areas in patients that have been affected by a Silicon infiltration or by different substances. In this case, it explains the evolution and treatment in patients that have had an infiltration on the forehead, and the complications, therefore loosing tissue in both eyelids and between the eyebrows and how this problem was solved successfully.
