In 2005 I had injectibles placed in my buttocks which quickly became inflamed. Plastic surgeons would not touch me so I ended up in an emergency room where young doctors conducted emergency surgery and basically stAbbed me up like. Baked potato to allow the product to drain out. Years later I am left with unsightly scarring dimpling and asymmetry. I would like to e plods my options to reduce the asymmetry and visibility of the scars while adding volume and fullness. I am currently 30 weeks pregnant so I know there is nothing I can do now but pre pregnancy I am 5'4 and 130 pounds. I have only gained 15 pounds so far so don't expect much extra weight to loose post pregnancy but I would love to use any extra fat for fat transfer.

Hi Tika,

Thanks for sharing your expereince with us, I'm sorry you had to deal with the complications you've had. Is it a BBL you are wanting after your pregnancy?

I think so. Yes bbl. but I have received conflicting feedback from doctors. The two doctors who have posted on here both said I can likely be a candidate for bbl so that is good news. I still wonder about how much extra weight is needed to harvest the right Mount of fat needed for transfer.

Columbia Presbyterian hospital in NYC. I entered through the emergency dept because i was having a reaction at the time. Other than the awful scars i Have no side effects. I couldn't find a plastic surgeon willing to help me at the time. Good luck. Are you having complications?

I'm so sorry. This is crazy and i still want to get them. Thinking this won't happen to me. How much longer will this pain continue in all of these women on here. Something has to be available somewhere. I truly thought silicone was safe. I don't think it was silicone. But everybody responds differently to everything. God bless you.
