Approximately 9 month as ago I was convinced to inject PMMA Shots into my behind. Which I honestly didn’t noticed much of a difference. I did already contemplate on getting a “bbl” done but for some reasons I did not I went the easier route and did the pmma injections and now I want to do the bbl. Can I? Or I have to add more PMMA??
Answer: I have PMMA in my butt. Can I still do a BBL? Thank you for your question. PMMA is not used in the US for buttock shaping and filling due to its prohibitive cost. One syringe 1-1.5cc costs $800-1000. To see improvement with PMMA one would need 200-300cc of the product. I trained in using PMMA, Radiesse and other biostimulators in Brazil and I'm the only licensed GoldIncision plastic surgeon in the US. PMMA or polymethylmethacrylate are 40 micron spherules (extremely tiny) injected in a carrier which is bovine collagen in the US, it's 20% PMMA and 80% Collagen. Outside of the US, it has a synthetic carrier which gets metabolized just like the collagen. The cost abroad, especially in Brazil is significantly cheaper than here. BTW, the PMMA cannot be removed, it becomes a living implant. The small spheres are surrounded by the body's tissues. It becomes a vascularized implant. Removing it is close to impossible without destroying the surrounding tissues. I would strongly advise against it. Now you did not say or know, if the PMMA was injected into the buttock fat compartment or it was injected intramuscularly into the gluteus maximus muscle. PMMA is often confused with several gel fillers used in Europe and South America in the past, which can lead to disastrous results.

Answer: BBL CAN BE DONE!!!! Hello dear!, The only two safest ways to obtain buttock augmentation and shaping are through BBL and implants, and yes, it is not impossible, BBL can be done. But first we have to see the condition in which the material injected into your buttocks is currently, the most feasible thing is to extract everything that can be removed and then after the recovery, proceed with the BBL. I recommend you visit a boarded qualified and certified plastic surgeon, have a virtual or at least physical consultation to be able to help you better.
