After having illegal silicone butt shots, would it be too risky to now go to a board certified plastic surgeon for BBL?

Asked By:Wimbisst in Owings Mills, MD

Ok so In 2012 I had a tummy tuck with a transfer to my butt, however it wasn’t big enough. Therefore in 2015, I got about 8 ounces of silicone(foreign substance) injected into my buttocks. So here we are in 2018 and I want to go back to my surgeon to have my back liposuction with another transfer but I’m scared that it will disrupt the silicone and it may spread to my lungs. I’ve postponed my surgery twice.
