I had a “collagen” injected on my nose 9-10 yrs ago, she wasn’t a licensed cosmetologist n definitely not a doctor. weeks after Procedure I began to notice my nose beginning to shrink but it turned out extremely RED. So I had my first rhinoplasty, a week post op I began to notice a small bump on my nose bridge beginning to get bigger, Red, hard with spider veins but eventually goes away on its own after a week or 2. Leaving my nose bruised And peeling. has been like this since then.
Answer: Silicone removal from nose facial silicone injection removal of facial silicone nasal silicone silicone injection removal expert Thank you for your question regarding what to do with silicone injected into your nose by a non-medical professional. This is a very difficult problem that I deal with very frequently. In your specific case, this requires an expert in silicone removal. I would suggest a careful evaluation of your nose. Without seeing you physically in the office, it is difficult to assist and create a surgical plan. However, in your specific case, I have had patients who have successfully treated with Co2 laser. Co2 laser vaporizes the injected silicone. Please feel for an experienced Board Certified Surgeon who specializes in silicone removal. Please do not go to a non-experienced surgeon who has not dealt with silicone injected too the nose. Thank you for your question regarding what to do with silicone injected to the nose. I specialized in silicone removal. I am the lead investigator and founder of the Silicone Removal Institute. Since removing silicone is a big procedure, please seek an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience in removing silicone. Do your research. Make sure they have performed at least 100 silicone removal surgeries and have the before and after pictures to prove it. Carefully examine their before and after pictures and check their reviews on RealSelf. If you cannot find an experienced, silicone removal surgeon in your neighborhood, consider traveling out of state if you must. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Answer: Removal of Silicone from the face and body is possible Silicone biopolymers are being used throughout the world for facial and body volume augmentation. Results are longer-lasting that Juvederm or Restylane. Bellafill and Artefill are known to cause granulomas and permanent nodules with swelling. This is not the case for everyone. Silicone biopolymers can also cause similar chronic inflammatory conditions. In my practice, I specialize in the removal of Bellafill and Artefill injections, in addition to silicone biopolymers, from the face and body. Initially, treatments are non-surgical with corticosteroids and immune modulators. If unable to be corrected, we can also perform surgery in some cases. Silicone biopolymers can also be removed from the body if there are signs of migration or inflammation. All of these filler-types should be removed as early as possible. Lastly, our office is conducting ongoing studies of plasma-assisted corticosteroid application, which allows for diffusion of the treatment medication in superficial tissue without causing atrophy.

Answer: La silicona no es un aceite, es un plástico igual que el PMMA. La diferencia entre rellenos dérmicos reales como el ácido hialurónico o la hidroxiapatita cálcica es que permanecen donde lo inyectamos y no se mueven, y se absorberán en un plazo no superior a 12 a 16 meses dependiendo del caso y la zona tratada. Los materiales aloplásticos como la silicona y el PMMA invaden las células atravesando su citoplasma y se integran con los tejidos más cercanos, además se migrar y provocar deformidades comprometiendo la microcirculación, una verdadera pesadilla. En algunos casos podemos eliminar parte del mismo, nunca todo, intentando recrear una normalidad temporal en los labios, y hasta en otras zonas del rostro con riesgo de deformidades severas. Es muy importante que antes de realizarte las inyecciones faciales cosméticas verifiques el médico elegido por usted y busque en google la marca del producto que le ofrece este profesional. Recientemente publicamos un documental en nuestro canal de youtube Lopeztallaj, Besos de plástico explicando todo lo relacionado con esas inyecciones ilegales para una verdadera prevención. Tiene subtítulos en inglés y portugués.
