Aquamid Removal - the product is starting to look more obvious

I had Aquamid injected into my lips in June 2006 and I really wish I hadn't. As the natural aging process is happening, I'm losing my own volume in my lips and therefore the product is starting to look more and more obvious. Luckily I have not had any complications, I believe the surgeon who injected the product did a wonderful job and injected it deeply which is why I haven't had granulomas etc. but my lips are starting to look lumpy as my own collagen depletes and it's about time I had the product removed. It's been 16 years, I was told it would last for 10 years but I'm thinking now it's completely permanent, as my lips are as big now as the day I had them injected.
The problem is, the most appealing removal method is the laser which only seems to be in Italy or Barcelona.
I have spoken with 2 surgeons here. One of them wants to aspirate the product to get it out. The other wants to perform surgery which may require my lips to be reconstructed afterwards. Both have told me that there will still be a little product left over afterwards. It's impossible to get it all out once it becomes integrated with your own tissue.
Has anyone here had experiences within Australia, of having aquamid removed from lips after 10+ years either by aspiration or surgery? Just not sure which road I should go down. Any advice or ideas from people who have successfully had this product removed from their lips, ideally in Australia, would great. Thanks so much.
