ANGELLY MONCAYO
Main character - Executive Producer
Angelly Moncayo was born on November 4, 1979, in Cali, Colombia. With a career spanning over 20 years in the entertainment industry, she has appeared in various soap opera that have been viewed worldwide.
As the years went by, her health started to be significantly affected, and she discovered that she had a little-known condition referred to by patients as "Breast Implant Illness." In response to this, she immersed herself in research, speaking with both patients and healthcare professionals who have not only helped her gain more knowledge about this condition but also guided many people suffering from ASIA Syndrome, the medical term for this illness, through their own journeys.
Today, she is the founder of the international movement ASIA RECOVERY and is writing a book about her experience and extensive knowledge of this disease, with the aim of raising awareness and helping individuals who are in a critical state of health due to this condition.
