Need help to get silicone removed from acne scars it left me with bumps

June 30, 2018
Asked By:Changecoming21 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I had silicone microdroplets injected into acne scars and a month after I noticed I was getting granulomas so I had them injected with cortisone & it didn't make a difference. :( I went and got an MRI on face and I went and saw Doctor Gallerani, he said he could remove it but that it would leave a scar & I am concerned and it costs 6k, so I'm taking a risk and a lot of money. Can anyone suggest someone who is a reliable experienced remover of silicone without it leaving big scar? Thank you.
