If the product is the same what you inject into the body for other issues such a volume /wrinkles in the face and the product is approved by FDA for that I think injection into the buttock could be safe too. By default always check with the manufacturer. Best Wishes!!
Dear iamTamikah,most plastic surgeons will recommend you to avoid fillers due to high risk of infection and fat necrosis. If you are considering a treatment, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
The injections after the BBL may put you at a higher risk for infection and fat necrosis. I remove these materials on a fairly regular basis due to complications, and I would not recommend injections.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
Hello iamTamikah,I appreciate your questions! Injectable Silicone, Biogel, Hydrogel, and Biopolymers used for body contouring are not FDA-approved and can cause serious side effects that may be permanent. 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 (blockage of a blood vessel), stroke, and infections. Serious complications may occur right away or could develop weeks, months, or years later. Instead of Biogel injections and other foreign material injectable substances that are deemed medically unsafe, I would recommend you getting a second round of Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). Unlike short lasting synthetic fillers, re-injecting your own fat may give you natural looking results that last longer, with no risk of rejection. Consult with an experienced plastic surgeon to assess your candidacy for a touchup Brazilian Butt Lift and discuss your particular needs and cosmetic expectations. Best regards! Dr. De La Cruz.
The only two safe things to inject in ones buttock are their own fat or Scupltra, beyond these two things everything else is unsafe to inject into ones own buttock.
Hi and welcome to our forum!The only approved methods of buttock augmentation in the United States are the Brazilian butt lift where fat is injected into the buttocks or the use of buttock implants (silicone gel filled buttock pillows). Injectables carry a high rate of infection with resulting deformity. Collagen is short lived. Seek advice from a board certified plastic surgeon.Best wishes...
Hello dear! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. Based on your pictures, you are a good candidate for liposuction with BBL, and I think you'll get very good results. Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You can improve your abd...
I recommend a well balanced diet low in salt after a BBL with a multi-vitamin. The supplements you listed will not hurt your but may not add much to your healing/recovery. Definitely ask your PS what they recommend.
The dark spots that look similar to bruising for a lot of patients is actually post inflammatory hyper pigmentation. This can occur from liposuction burns, which usually occur when laser lipo or vaser lipo is used (the heat causes the burn). It can also happen when a basket cannula is used. Very...
