Surgery After Aquamid in Lips - France, FR

Hi there i had Aquamid in my lips 10 years ago. i recently got it drained by the same surgeon who put it in m lips to begin with. It has been nothing more than a nitemare, a living hell!!! I am sufferng depression and in so much debt because of lost wages from work (1 month), hospial bills, plastic surgeon bills, medical medicine bils etc. I have been on anti biotics for 3 mths to tame don the green puss lie infection that has not left my lips since my doctor inserted 2 holes to drain the aquamid. I got off the anti biotics twice for a week each time and both times my lis were the size of a football and very very ifected. I was rushed into hospital twice and on one of those occasions i underwent more surgery by the plastics department. i have now been referred to a dermoologist and an Infectious diseases specialist and my top lip is deformed for life. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO FOR ME. LADIES DO NOT GET AQUAMID, THIS IS A NITEMARE!!! I cry everyday when i look at myself. My bills are driving me mad!!

How are you doing these days?

I can't believe there is still some swelling after 2 months. :-/

Thank you so much for continuing to update us. Its really helpful.

It's normal, it's swollen a little bit , the granulomas was pretty big, so the flesh are working to reconstructive themselves.

I also had aquamid in approx 2003 in my lips under my eyes and In the chin area My lips are very lumpy And I have a sausage like lump under both eyes and one beside my mouth. I tried to have some aspirated from my lips and it got infected and swelled up really big If I get any other filler under my eyes to cover the aquamid I get lots swelling and bad bruising for weeks I regret ever having it and I think it should be banned I'm too scared to have it removed and it's going to costs thousands

Hi guys, it's better than before, but I need to have a second surgery because, there still are granuloma, but less, very less. Only surgery to take off granuloma is necessary, aspiration doesn't work.
