Butt Augmentation: Stories

Wow I'm so sorry to hear about your story. I'm praying for you girl and I hope you fully recover mentally and psychially.

FDA and plastic surgeons ALWAYS deter women to stay away from injecting foreign substances in our bodies. You NEVER see anyone that isn't a licensed Doctor!!!!!! I understand women do this to "save" money but it's really not worth loosing your life or permanently disfiguring yourself. Love and appreciate the body that God blessed you with. I'm so sorry this happened to you. I hope things get better :)

YOU BETTER LEAVE THOSE BUTT IMPLANT ALONE, JUST BE HAPPY OF YOUR BODY. MY MOTHER WAS THE BOOTIEST WOMAN ALIVE. BUT ME MY BUTT IS LIKE PANCAKE BUT I AM HAPPY WITH MYSELF.

Ladies, you are all so brave for coming on here and sharing your stories. I just recently found out my mother did this to herself 10 years ago. She has kept this secret for 10 years. At first she didn't have any symptoms and her buttocks actually looked normal. 5 years later, her nightmare began. She began to experience horrible leg pains and bumps on her buttocks due to the poison she had injected. She dealt with the pains and bruises and bumps for 5 more years by doing plasma treatments which alleviated some of her pain but not all. About a week ago she finally had to go into surgery because a piece of skin in her buttocks became completely deformed and scarred. The surgeon says the skin was completely dead and the best thing to do is remove it. I felt numb, and angry that she would do something so crazy to herself since she was always and always will be perfect to me. Now I am slowly understanding and researching but the more I read, the more scared I am for my mom. These injections are poison ladies. I congratulate any and all of you that are brave enough to go through surgery to at least get some of the product removed. For those of you who aren't sure or are scared, you aren't alone. Everybody makes mistakes, how you handle things after is what really counts! Keep strong ladies.

I had silicone injected into my legs 11 Years ago and Im still dealing with painful side effects . Ive already had two liposuctions one in 2007 another in 2009, now I might have to go in for a third. One thing that i don't see being pointed out in this thread is the need to visit a Rheumatologist, Rheumatologists are internists or pediatricians who are qualified by additional postgraduate training and experience in the diagnosis and treatment of arthritis and other diseases of the joints, muscles and bones. If the silicone has migrated to your muscle tissue or other areas then it is very important that you visit a Rheumatologist.
They will provide you with a more accurate diagnosis about your health, and what can be done to help or stabilize your situation. Your first priority should be your health then the way you look. By doing it the other way around things can go terribly wrong as many of us here have learned the hard way.
Silicone has a tendency to migrate in your body, if your immune system begins to fight it, it will start using up all of your white blood cells to do so, once this happens it is a constant war inside your body, since the silicone will not die it will only produce lesions
and cause many health problems. But there are ways to treat this and perhaps prevent it from getting worse, I recommend seeing at least two different Rheumatologists before visiting the plastic surgen and make sure they have treated patients with similar cases to yours.
Ive noticed that most surgens that have little to no experience in this are extremely hesitant to assist you and give you pretty much the worst news possible which can make you fall into deep depression, denial or make you suicidal. So make sure you get plenty of opinions and dont be shy to ask them before the consultation, if they've ever treated patients with your condition,...this could save you allot of time and money.
If you live in the United states then I would recommend researching for good Mexican surgens with experience in this matter. Unfortunately Mexico is one of the countries where illegal silicone injections are most common, therefore, over the years there have been many more cases of silicone removal in Mexico than in the US.
There are also some very good reconstructive surgens here in the U.S. and in Mexico, you just have to do allot of good in depth research.
If you find yourself frustrated, depressed and anxious I would also recommend seeing a psychologist to help you through this process, I know how difficult it can be to talk about it to any one and how heavy it is to keep all the pain to yourself. There is plenty of hope and help out there (try support groups too). Medical advances are being made every day around the world and the more we speak up and voice our experiences the more help we will be able to foster for ourselves and others like us. We need to fight for this to stop happening, a strict law needs to be put into action here and all around the world that will prohibit these kind procedures, This could save tens of Thousands of lives.
Together we can help each other and find ways to better our lives immensely, Please if you have researched or know of any good doctors that specialize in this share their info, or if you have any helpful advice, please post it.
Thanks!

and always have hope, strength and faith


I just want to say, DON'T DO IT!, If you are thinking of getting cillicone injections STOP!
There are far more cons than pros and you are risking your life.

I was looking into getting shots. My body is average glasshour shape but living in the south (Dallas, TX) we like em BIG! Hell even our motto is everything is bigger in TX. Anyways my point is that being surrounded by so many big booty judies it just makes an average booty look like .. well honestly like nothing admirable. And not to mention those endless squats at the gym that are not working for ish .. my inspiration is the watermelon lady from Brazil. Her butt seems to be pretty natural (as she suggests) and she is known as Brazil's biggest booty. My point being that I tried te natural remedy for a bigger butt.. gym.. but I've become really desperate at this point and that is the reason why I have looked into getting the shots with a certified Dr. But after reading and doing a thorough research of the complication, side effects, testimonials, and looking at the very small success percentile I've come into conclusion that my average booty is going to have to do some more extensive work at the gym. My health is far more important than turning heads. Im very glad I came across this forum and I thank every one of you taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences. Know that you have helped save this 19 year old's future. Thank you!

@1chloe Thank you for the information as well! I did the injections about 4-5 years ago as well and I haven't had any complications health wise other than recently a sore buttox and slight discoloration on the surface area. Four of my other friends did it as well and no one else has had any side effects. The agony and paranoia will drive me crazy and I want to get this rectified before it worsens. There are not very many doctors that are willing to help so you feel helpless. Please give me the information to the doctor that you used. Are you satisfied with the results? Did your pain and discoloration go away?

@tic check your inbox

Omg thnx thnx so much i recently had a full tt bl BA in lipo in was looking into but injections reading this completely made me change my mind thanks so much in i wish you guyz the best with your health

I too am going threw the same thing. I had butt injections done in March by April I was in the hospital. I had stuffing leaking from sores that had grew. By April 14 I was back in the ER for 4 days. By the end of April I was back at Doctor and on my 5th antibiotic. I had a perfect shape but just being greedy I had this done by some one who claimed to be a nurse. I wish I knew how to put the pics up it would make you vomit. I have cuts bumps scars open wounds every where the silicon has move to my thighs and made me wider I can't fit any of my clothes it hurts to drive and I just cry cause I think I'm gonna die. I'm still here. No doctor will help me they are scared of a malpractice suit and then they say they have never done it before. To the lady that posted this please help us out go into more detail on what u had done so our lives can be saved too.

I'm glad my story could be assistant to you ladies:)

I just want to say that I am very sorry for all of you ladies that had injections and are now in pain. My heart goes out to each & every one of you.

Put it in God's hands and remember, he will never put you through anything you cant endure.
