Leave well enough alone

Kenneth R. Francis, MD answers: Is it possible to remove injectable butt augmentation substance?

Around 2005 i had injections done in my buttocks and then again in 2006. Sad to say on both occasions it was not administered from a doctor. I'm unsure of what the substance really is. Since then My buttocks have formed discoloration and lumps. My left buttock has dropped tremendously so now i"m distorted. Is there something that i can do to fix this? I know i've made a terrible decision I'm really afraid.

Tanya,

The discoloration probably represents pigmentation from an inflammatory response to whatever substance was injected into your buttocks.  It would behoove you to find out what material was used because this might dictate what can be done.  If you can't find out, then you're best to leave it alone.  Good luck!
