So i got silicone butt injections 8 years ago & i have never had any complications.. i have had a baby and i'm currently pregnant again. However i seen online that a woman who got silicone injections from the same people that i went to is now hospitalized because the silicone has migrated up her back and she is in severe pain needing emergency surgery. She had the surgery done around the same time as me. Should I be scared? Should I look into removal or editing?
