Sabillon, who is from Honduras and was preparing to fly to Spain, told investigators she received breast implants filled with an unknown substance she had been hired to transport.
The implants were removed at a Bogota hospital and Sabillon was treated for an infection stemming from the original surgery, which is believed to have taken place at a clinic in Pereira, Colombia.
The substance inside the implants was determined to be cocaine, authorities said.
Sabillon was hospitalized for five days before being released into police custody.
