What are the consequences for the person who injected me with the unauthorised moulding substance?

Law 2316 of 2023 incorporated Article 116B of the Penal Code ("injuries with non-permitted modelling substances"). The law provides for imprisonment of 32 to 120 months and a fine of 150 to 250 minimum wages for anyone who injects or infiltrates these substances. The complaint can be filed with the Attorney General's Office, which can be written on the website or verbally at a URI (Immediate Reaction Unit). In general, it is not necessary to have a lawyer to file a complaint, and a clear account of the facts and evidence must be presented. 

In addition to criminal proceedings, the following actions can be brought: 

• Disciplinary complaint: if the applicant is a health professional for being against professional ethics.
• Complaint to inspection, surveillance and control authorities: The Superintendence of Health and for misleading advertising (when applicable) before the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce.
• Civil actions for damages but this must be with legal representation and involves the filing of a civil claim or request for conciliation.
