When I was almost 18 years old I made the worst mistake of my life I decided to get butt shots. I did my but shots with a Dominican lady in queens and she injected me with what she called hydrogel but I'm pretty sure that was a lie. After a few months of getting the shots I had a bruise that never went away. Now I'm 26 years old and about a year ago things started to get bad for me. I always felt a burning sensation and pain when I was sitting for too long. But last year the pain got stronger and I noticed that one of my cheeks the one with the bruise started to get bigger and was droopy. Not only that I also noticed my lower back was swollen. I freaked out and stated to look for a doctor. I went for a consultation with Dr. Tansar Mir last summer in July which was $250 for the consultation. I walked out of there crying and feeling like my life was over. He told me go back to him when things get worst and made me feel like I was never going to be able to afford the surgery. After that I did some research and made a consultation on March 2016 with Dr. Gallerani and a friend that also got butt shots with the same lady decided to go with me because she also wanted to remove this poison. After the consultation I felt so relieved that I finally found help. He made me feel so comfortable that I knew right away that I needed to get the surgery done with him and my frien felt the same. I had my surgery done on April 29th and my friend got it done a day before me. The hospital where he performes the surgery is amazing!!!!! And Dr. Gallerani is just so kind and made me feel so calm before the surgery that all my nerves went away. After the surgery I stayed in Miami until May 13th. I'm just so thankful for this amazing doctor and his entire staff!!!!! They were amazing and I'm forever going to be grateful

Welcome to the community, thanks for sharing your story. I'm so glad to hear everything worked out for you. Did you take any photos of what your bruising and swelling looked like, and also some pre and post-op photos? If so, would you consider sharing them with the community?  What was the surgery and recover like for you?
