I have silicone butt injections and now I'm scared to let doctor inject medicine into my butt. Advice? (photo)

Question

I have had the butt injections for 7 years and am now realizing the danger of what I did. I havent had any complications yet and pray that I don't. I want to know if it's safe for me to get im injections in my butt now or should i always request my arm? Can all im injections be given in any muscle? I just dont want to disturb the silicone and cause a complication.

To play it safe and put your mind at ease I would visit a board certified plastic surgeon specialist in buttock augmentation to get his/her opinion after they examine you.  Glad to help... @drryanstanton

Our office is the leading center for the removal of foreign body fillers in the United States. My approach is protocol based, beginning with an examination to determine the grade of inflammation using the Karamanoukian Grading Scale for Soft Tissue Inflammation. Silicone biopolymers and PMMA can be safely removed from the face and body. Longterm complications are minimized with diligent attention to detail and protocol-based treatment.

LEAVE YOUR PREVIOUS INJECTION AREAS ALONE!  Stay away from the areas of previous treatment at all costs.  Please focus on visiting only board certified plastic surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Avoid second guessing yourself on the injections. Get a consult from a board certified plastic surgeon in your area. Your appearance may not be dire as you think. Many patients have  done OK with injections. Thomas Narsete, M.D. Austin, Tx
