I'm suffering complications after silicone injections to my buttocks. What can I do?

 Very sorry to hear of your grave misfortune. Having silicone liquid injected into the body tissues results in many different types of complications ultimately leading to hardening, pain, infection, and/or significant disfigurement.  Depending upon which complication you're experiencing different treatments are available and necessary.   For example when it comes to infectionp, antibiotics are necessary and possibly even surgery. When hard and painful areas become unrelenting,  powerful anti-inflammatoriy medications may slow the process but typically surgery is the only option to remove these problematic areas. Keep in mind that never is 100% of the silicone liquid removed and thus it may create lifelong problems.  The most important thing now is to find a experienced trustworthy plastic surgeon  that you will likely have a long term even lifelong relationship with. Glad to help. 

Silicone biopolymers can cause severe longterm complications including inflammation and nodule formulation. Although results are longer-lasting that Juvederm or Restylane, long-acting fillers should be avoided.  
Bellafill and Artefill are known to cause granulomas and permanent nodules with swelling. This is not the case for everyone. Silicone biopolymers can also cause similar chronic inflammatory conditions. 
In my practice, I specialize in the removal of Bellafill and Artefill injections, in addition to silicone biopolymers, from the face and body. Initially, treatments are non-surgical with corticosteroids and immune modulators. If unable to be corrected, we can also perform surgery in some cases. 
Silicone biopolymers can also be removed from the body if there are signs of migration or inflammation. All of these filler-types should be removed as early as possible. 
Lastly, our office is conducting ongoing studies of plasma-assisted corticosteroid application, which allows for diffusion of the treatment medication in superficial tissue without causing atrophy. 
Best,

If you have had silicone injections to your buttocks and are experiencing chills and other symptoms, there is a possibility that you have an ongoing infection. You should be evaluated by your physician and antibiotics may be warranted. Although small localized areas of silicone can be removed, it is usually spread out throughout the buttock region and it cannot be removed without performing surgery.
