Around 2005 i had injections done in my buttocks and then again in 2006. Sad to say on both occasions it was not administered from a doctor. I'm unsure of what the substance really is. Since then My buttocks have formed discoloration and lumps. My left buttock has dropped tremendously so now i"m distorted. Is there something that i can do to fix this? I know i've made a terrible decision I'm really afraid.

Answer: Is It Possible to Remove Injectable Butt Augmentation Substance? This is a very serious problem. I do not know of an effective way of removing the substrate injected. I assume it is free silicone, but we obviously do not know. Conservative measures and surgical excision of nodules only as needed. Good luck and be safe.John T.

Answer: Remove Injectable Butt Augmentation Substance?
Unfortunately, at this stage of the game it may be best to leave it alone unless you encounter a more serious problem such as painful hardening and/or infection otherwise removal of the material can only be done by way of excision which can greatly deform the buttocks and leave large scars. Best to see a board certified plastic surgeon for a direct exam and recommendation(s). Good luck...RAS

Answer: Silicone Injections into the butt Silicone, or other material that is injected into a butt (breasts, or other body area), is unsafe and not performed by any normal doctor that I am aware off. There are many complications arising from injectable substances such as Silicone. The biggest problem, however, is getting it out once it becomes a problem. It cannot be liposuctioned out. If removal is required, it is done by cutting out all the tissues where the silicone has spread. This will leave a very visible defect.
