Yes you can get infection years after permanent fillers. I suggest you see an expert for evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.
Hello vicklove, I appreciate your questions! Injectable silicone used for body contouring is not FDA-approved and can cause serious side effects that may be permanent or may even lead to death. Side effects can include ongoing pain and serious injuries, such as scarring, tissue death, and permanent disfigurement. If the silicone migrates beyond the injection site, it could cause an embolism, stroke, infections and death. Serious complications may occur right away or could develop weeks, months, or even ten or more years later. The treatment varies from patient to patient. This may range from surgical excision, to hyaluronidase injection followed by VASER Liposuction and fat transfer into the area to correct the resultant deformity. Consult with an experienced plastic surgeon about your specific needs and concerns. Good luck and may God bless you! Dr. De La Cruz.
