Silikon 1000 in the cheeks

One of the great problems about reading about procedures online is that someone is ALWAYS unhappy with any particular procedure. You have had NO untoward results from your injection and like Dr. Channing, I have injected hundreds of patients without having a bad result. Simply because you read on the internet of one or more folks who claim to have had bad experiences is no reason for you or anyone else to be worried about having this procedure.

Silicone Is Excellent Filler

I have been injecting silicone as a filler for years on hundreds of patients and my mentor and partner has been injecting silicone for over 40 years on thousands of patients.

You sound like me who had silikon 1000 injected in Dec 09 on the spur of the moment at the suggestion of a doctor I went for a consultation for something else and then I read all about it and got very scared about migration. It's three years later and no problem. Dr. Kass is right. We read one bad story and forget all the good experiences and that is ALWAYS THE RISK WITH ANYTHING. Dr. Kass, Dr. Joseph and several others have used it hundreds of times without any bad results so focus on that and don't worry about what could happen in the future you can't control today. Are you happy with the results now? Do you have any before and after pictures to share? Hope it all works out, other than spending so much for so little result, I'm fine.
