In general, yes intramuscular buttock implants can be placed even after injection with fillers such as silicone liquid and PMMA. An in person consultation with physical exam will first be necessary to evaluate the quality of your tissue, rule out any active problems, and determine what size and shape implant is most appropriate or even possible. Glad to help.
Thank you for your question about buttock augmentation with buttock implant after PMMA injections. Buttock PMMA removal and subsequent buttock reconstruction is a large portion of my plastic surgery practice. First, the PMMA needs to be removed surgically. Then, about 4 to 6 months later, the buttocks can be reconstructed with FDA approved, semi-solid silicone buttock implants. I hope that I have answered your questions regarding buttock augmentation with buttock implant after PMMA injections. I specialize in buttock implant insertion after PMA removal. If you have any more questions regarding buttock implants, buttock implant surgery, buttock implant insertion, or buttock implant revision, please contact my office. Since buttock implant surgery is a big procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience buttock implant insertion. Do your research. If you cannot find an experienced, buttock implant plastic surgeon in your neighborhood, consider traveling out of state if you must. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Assuming the pmma is not causing active infections and has been stable yes you can have surgery. You are and always will be at an increased risk for infection though due to the pmma injections.Best

Active or not, cohesive gel implants appear to be a better solution for Buttock augmentation. Unfortunately they are not available yet in the United States. To my knowledge none of the major three US implant manufacturers are actively pursuing cohesive gel implants. This may be due to the f...
