Male, 26 yo. How to proceed with liquid silicone removal from scrotum?

Hi, Thank you for your question about how to proceed with liquid silicone removal from scrotum. First, to determine if the silicone has spread to your lymphatic nodes, I would suggest you have a MRI with and without contrast of your pelvis. The results of your MRI will determine what needs to be done next. You may need the scrotal masses removed or perhaps a more extensive procedure. I specialized in biopolymer and silicone removal and subsequent reconstruction. Since removing biopolymer and silicone is a big procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience in removing silicone. Do your research. Make sure they have performed many biopolymer and silicone removal surgeries and have the before and after pictures to prove it. Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf.  If you cannot find an experienced, silicone removal surgeon in your neighborhood, consider traveling out of state if you must. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

It is definitely possible to debulk (remove), much of the silicone in the scrotal area. This would need to be done under general anesthesia and would leave a scar. However, scars in the scrotum tend to be excellent.

it is important to carry out a complete physical examination to rule out that there is no compromise of the testicles or vascular structures; It will also require diagnostic imaging studies. If it is in a plane that includes the damage to the testicular vaginal tunica, there are possibilities of withdrawal but keep in mind that it will never be possible to remove 100% of the product.
