How to Remove Silicone Filler?

The difference between real dermalfillers as hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxiapatite is that they stay were we inject it and do not move, and of coirse it will absorb within a period of no more than 12 to 16 months dependind on the case and area. Alloplastic material such silicone and PMMA the invade the cells citoplasma and integrate with the closer tissues, also they migarte and causes deformitis with compromise of the micro circulation, a real nightmare. In some cases we can remove part of it, neve all of it, trying to recreate a temporal normality in the lips or someother areas of the face with the risk of severe deformities. It’s so important that prior to do cosmetic facial injections you verify the doctor choosen by you, and search about the brand of the product that this professional is pffering to you. Recently we posted a documentary in our youtube channel Lopeztallaj, Besos de plástico explaining everything involved with those ilegal injections for a real prevention. It has english subtitles.

Hi @Cola: Thanks for your question. 
Free Silicone should not typically be injected into the body. In the United States this is almost never performed because of the risk of Silicone Granuloma formation, Infection and nodule formation in response to the "foreign body" that has been injected into the body. 
Treatment options depend on your unique situation and are divided into the two phases the first phase is removal of the silicone or other black market fillers. The second is reconstruction of the area with your own tissues (typically your own fat is harvested from techniques similar to liposuction and then injected). 
Silicone Removal & Reconstruction is challenging but can be done. Be sure to consult with your plastic surgeon to discuss all your options.

Best of luck,
