Silicone Injection Removal

WORTH IT$20,000
I have just had my first surgery with Dr. Mir in California to remove the silicone injections I got in Panama 9 years ago. If your are reading this, you probably already know...don’t ever get them!!!!
I didn’t really have any serious problems with mine until I started exercising a lot. Then I started having a burning sensation in my butt/legs every night and I was constantly feeling like I didn’t have any energy or I was sick all the time.
So, after my first surgery on Thursday I was immediately relieved of the itching and burning in my butt and it doesn’t feel like I have a rock there anymore.
Dr. Mir is truly amazing at what he does and genuinely cares for the well being of his patients and their families.
I will have my second surgery on Monday to remove the remaining and will post photos.

You are immediately relieved of any pain because all area is numb and it will be for some time. Some girls it does go away and some it doesn’t. But you won’t tell until some time. I also did mine, a year ago. I dislike the fact that he does a butt lift after the procedure. He pulls the butt line too high. I always have to tuck in my shirt because my crack is always showing from it being too high. The tension from the lift also makes the scar line not heal as nice as it could, because of the tension. My scar isn’t bad, but some girls need to get revision. Mir does the job, at leas for some. But I think he can eliminate the butt lift and put more effort on how he creates our scar. The PS that did my BBL told me I need a revers like TT on my back to bring down my butt line. .. The crack line at the top isn’t as nice, he take away that natural crack look. The crack has a hard stop instead of a smooth natural transition. Now, he is better than most of the doctors out there. Dr G in Miami is the best in the states, he’s expensive but worth the cost! And does his best to leave it as appealing as possible. Where Mir an be a bit of a bully and tell you it is what it is. But like I said, he gets the job done.

Who did your bbl? And how long after the surgery you had done? Can you have a bbl if you are a thin person?

Dr Delvechio did my BBL. I waited 8 months. You need some fat for a BBL, if not you’ll need gain some weight.

So true. I did my removal in May of 2017 and I still have areas that are numbed, however in some areas I am Beginning to feel a tingling pain again, specially the same side I had a granuloma. I went with Mir too and I agree with the incision, mines is super tight, no fat transfer will survive places there.

He does amazing work. I have always looked at it. After I get my reconstruction with the dr. G. I will do another one with delvechio. Do you have any pics of how the bbl came out?

Oh.. best of luck in the healing process. Take it very very serious. It’s not painful but your body will take time to heal and get back to normal. Recovery is long, but you will get through it like the rest of us :)
September 13, 2018
Thanks for the recommendation! How long do you recommend recovery time?

How much did you pay? I trying to find a surgeon in California, to remove silicon from my buttocks

My insurance approved the surgery so I’m not sure what my final out of pocket costs will be, but they will be minimal given that insurance is covering it. Dr. Mir has a team that works the insurance approval process for you. I would recommend getting in contact with his office.

I had my first check up with the Dr today since te surgery. They removed 2 of the 4 drains and the wound vac which is really good news. I am still feeling a little weak, but that can be expected considering how serious of a surgery it was. I am very happy to be on the other side of this. Will post more after my next visit with the doctor.

I hope you doing great! I am in the process of Searching for the better doctor. I have my injections in my muscle. Where Do you have yours? Thank you for sharing your journey! God bless!

Hi. I also had the injections in the muscle. And I guess many of us do as this product is mainly injected in the muscle or migrate to the muscle. Would be nice if anybody would tell its experience on removing from the buttocks muscle. Thk u
