There is a clinic in Colombia, called Nova (www.clinicanova.com.co), and there I am planning on doing my butt augmentation in November. The injections are Hialuronico or Hialucorp. I have tried searching online, but I don' t understand much. I REALLY want bigger buttocks, but not if I am going to die at the procedure or 5-10 year after with complications. Please, tell me if this is okay, and what the risks are and if they are big enough to not do it. I really want my butt enlarged.

The fat suctioned from these areas is then carefully processed and purified such that only a... more

Butt injections

I have no idea what is hylacorp. What is being injected into the buttock these days are illegal and not medically approved and causes much problems. Silicone from the hardware store is being injected and causes much problems that is very difficult to correct, if not impossible without removing your butt skin and fat. The only procedure available and medicaly approved 1: fat transfer 2: dermis fat graft 3 butoock implants.
