Silicone butt injections

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Can silicone buttock injections be removed?

Some doctors say yes and a lot say no. Once and for all, are silicone injections on the buttocks removable, if need be? Is it possible to have silicone butt injections liposuctioned out, or at the very least some of it? I had these injections 5 years ago.

Silicone injections into the buttocks are very difficult to remove. This is because the injections can disperse in multiple levels of tissue and remain as microdroplet form.  If the injections become firm or granulomatous, then they may require excision. It is extremely difficult to remove.
