Silicone Granulomas : Options to treat lumps / overcorrection from medical grade Silikon 1000 microdroplets for acne scars?

Many people with acne scarring have areas of depressed skin, and areas of raised skin. Sometimes the high areas may become more noticeable, or some scars may "doughnut". If dilute triamcinolone acetonide injections are not effective, light electrosurgery with a Hyfrecator may be considered for flattening raised areas permanently, with minimal inconvenience. Simple shave biopsies of the raised skin may be considered as well. Thank you. Dr Joseph.

I am a national expert on silicone complications and have had experience in the safe removal of silicone from the face. You may need surgical excision. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Granulomas that result from silicone injection are very difficult to treat.  In our office, we try steroid injections as the first step.  If this method is not successful, we usually excise the area and perform a plastic surgery closure to minimize the scarring.  Make sure you see a doctor with experience in handling this type of problem.  Good Luck!
