“Unknown Permanent Filler Injected in Lips - Could Past Mistakes Affect Our Lives Forever?”

Not Worth It
Spent: $180 in greece
Spent: $180 in greece
hi,i am 32 years old and in 1997 a greek aesthisian injected me 6 injections of an unknown filler in my lips.i was too young and i trusted her by telling me that it was a harmless filler that it would have gone in 6 months.she was a criminal.in greece there was a huge scandal with 150 injected women having serious complications(many of them had mastectomy,yes she had done them even in their breasts).
now i have a hard yellow mass under my lips of course i look like a fish and the lips have started changing(more uneven and lumpy).
i have gone to many doctors.they all say to me that they cannot do anything about my situation.i must live with it and wait for the worst to come.i am living a nightmare.last year i started to have a stabbing pain on them.i am very scared and afraid of my future.can anyone help me?anyone who has experienced the same with me?the only thing that i know for the filler is that it is a colorless oil.they cannot traced it.and the aesthisian has died of cancer to ask her....
is there any treatment for unknown permanent filler in lips?

I'm so sorry to hear about all that you've gone through.
Is there any possibility of having the material tested to determine what it is? That might help you figure out the best way to treat it.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you're doing.
"Unknown oil"? Yikes. I don't suppose it's Silikon 1000 (which is oil-based)?
I hope you and the other people who were injected are able to find a solution.
I took have the same problem. If you like please email me and I will give you some advice
I now live in South Afica,.. which looks where i live in Cape town,... increibly beautiful, shopping malls,.. everything you want like in Europe and the States,..
But,. the plastic surgery is the best here, and cheapest,.. my lips actually turned out good, it took over a month,.. but where very good,..please come to south africa, book into a hotel,..also cheap.. it really is a great place for surgery,..many women ( white) have surgery every day here on everything thinkable.
Blessings sisters,.. and peace on this earth,.. we need it!

Wow, I'm very sorry for what happened to your lips. I don't have any lips (well I do but they are very thin) and I was thinking of having some sort of lip augmentation done, I did not realized is was so expensive, and that so many things can go wrong. I'm really vain always thinking of how fast Im aging and I get really sad and depressed, So more than likely I will probably get a procedure done. Can any one tell me what the best procedure is and what price I'm to expect? Hope everything works out for you, keep up your spirits, remember for every problem there is a SOLUTION just do your research.
