I had silicone injections to my buttocks a year ago.for the past few months I've ben getting pains in my legs,numbness in my feet,headaches,& extreme fatigue.(I have also gained about 40 ibs since then).I did vellashape treatments on my thighs & vibration plate & rite after my skin was red hot & itchy around my abdomen.Im really scared that I'm having a reaction.Please if there is any information on these symptoms & what options I have to resolve this I would be very grateful.

Answer: Reaction after silicone injections DO NOT GET SILICONE INJECTIONSThis is a huge problem Liquid silicone should never be injected for increasing volume. Tiny microdroplet injections have received some good press, but injections to add significant volume usually end in disaster.The liquid silicone incites inflammatory reactions that do not settle down since the body cannot digest silicone particles. Lymphatic vessels get clogged. The state of irritation, inflammation, and swelling is progressive and can lead to devastating infections, often with the need for huge surgery that leaves the unfortunate patient terribly scarred. Get to a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon immediately, one who has had experience with this problem.DO NOT GET SILICONE INJECTIONS

Answer: Bad Reactions After Liquid Silicone Injections No board-certified plastic surgeon in his right mind will use liquid silicone injections because they result in a wide range of complications such as skin thinning, migration, inflammation, discoloration of the affected tissue, and pain. Unfortunately, most of these problems are lifelong.The only safe ways to augment the buttocks are fat graft (or Brazilian butt lift) and silicone implants.Take note that it is extremely difficult and deemed risky to remove the liquid silicone injection because doing so will likely result in large craters in the treated area. Oftentimes, patients with severe complications may have to undergo a series of reconstructive surgeries just to achieve a near normal appearance.Please don't make the same mistake again. Go to a board-certified plastic surgeon (certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery).Let's hope for the best.
