What fillers are safe after silicone injections?

M
MissLadyLuckJan 9, 2016

Several times over several year i had silicone injected in to my lips. I unfortunately have developed a thicker, more volumous area in the middle of my bottom lip. This was not done at a pumping party. Id like to have a filler put in the sides/corners of my lips to restore balance to my lips. No lectures about my mistakes needed, I look in the mirror every day and see my mistakes. Other than that I like my lip shape and dont want to have surgery to remove it. Filler options? silikon1000?Juvederm?

Traces of silicone have been found remotely despite soft tissue injection in another area. Silicone grades are quite different and can react differently in patients. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian #Realself100 Surgeon
