Buttocks Augmentation with PMMA Injections in Mexico Safe?

I am considering getting PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate) injections in the buttocks from this doctor, the material used is suposed to be medical grade PMMA from Brazil, which is considered safe. The doctor seems to have a very good reputation. I have done some investigation and have heard only good things from this doctor. Can anyone verify this? Would this doctor be trustworthy? Is this PMMA safe?

PMMA injections are not safe.

There is not any PMMA injections that are safe.  They are not FDA approved anyplace in the US.  If you have the injections and have complications (which you probably will) you will have a hard time finding help.  PMMA injections are very dangerous.

Butt injections safety and success

There is a LOT of information on the internet which is simply not true and misleading about buttock augmentation. If you look you can find glowing reviews of almost every technique as well as people cursing the day they had the procedure done.

PMMA is used to cement orthopedic joints in place. It comes as a powder which when mixed with a liquids forms a paste which rapidly hardens as it gives off a lot of heat. Personally, I come from the rather simplistic school that believes that if God wanted you to have rock - hard buttock, he would have put the rocks in there. it makes NO sense to me to take the party of the body most valued for its roundness and rubbery softness and fill it with a rock, hard material which cannot be taken... more

Is buttock augmentation via injection of PMMA safe?

Hi there- Injection of liquid chemical compounds into the buttocks for augmentation is not FDA approved in the United States. Many different compounds have been used, with mixed results... It is not a procedure I would ever allow anyone I know to have done, as these procedures have been associated with severe and frequent complications in the past, including organ failure and death. Furthermore, once back in the US, how easy do you think it will be to find a plastic surgeon to take care of you w more

PMMA buttock injections not FDA approved in the USA

This is not approved by the FDA for use here. When you have a problem, who will take care of you? Are you prepared to go back to Mexico? In my own personal opinion, I would NEVER recommend this procedure on a patient. I have only seen problems with foreign bodies placed in the buttocks -- that includes silicone injections and implants, and this is no different.
