I made the stupidest biggest mistake of “silicone injections” 12 years ago. Now I want this poison out.

WORTH IT
My story begins 12 years ago. Someone injected me silicone, most likely industrial silicone, she claims it was medical grade silicone. Anyways I haven’t have any serious problems yet, no discoloration, no dents or black spots but for some reason every 2 to 3 years my left hip reacts to the material and become swollen, sometimes I get mild lower back pain. I want to believe it’s not something super serious compare to others. My internist in Beverly Hills treats the problem with prednisone and it works wonders, however he just told me “the material has come out” I’m been researching for the top dr to do the removal. I have pick two drs, you probably know their names. Dr Mir from NY and Dr Gallerani. They seem to be the most experienced and educated about this procedure. I’m schedule to see dr Mir December the 28th. I hope everything goes well at the consultation, after seeing him, I will make an appointment to go the G. Most likely I will go for Mir hoping my Insurance will cover, I think it will. I have to confess, I’m extremely nervous, anxious and scared. I really admire other women for sharing their stories helping others, I’m doing the same because I know how hard this situation can be, I know it’s affecting other people life. It’s true what a freaking mistake we’ve done, but what is done is done. I’ll keep you ladies posted with my journey. Please ladies try to do this type of procedure in the states, I won’t feel comfortable doing such a complicated surgery away from home. In my opinion as a nation we have the highest standards in medicine, so probably chances of infections or other complications are less likely to happen in the US. Please share your thoughts...

Hello! Good luck with ur consultation! I will be driving 6 hours to Beverly Hills and having my surgery on the 11th! I have only had this in me since the summer of 14’ but I also don’t have much problems, I do have a discolored spot but it’s not too bad, my lower back pain is what’s really driving me to get this out. I hope you feel at ease after your consultation with Dr. Mir, I know I did. So much of my anxiety went away after I met him. I would write down the most important questions u want to ask him because when ur in his office sometimes so much is going through ur head u forget. Anyways I’m going to write a post myself, and hopefully post some photos. If you have any questions or anything you can inbox me after my surgery and I can tell you how it went :) happy to finally get this out. I think Mir is for sure a good choice for this.

Hello, thank you so much for taking the time to read my story. You are giving me hope, I’m happy to hear your anxiety went away after you saw him. I hope my goes away too. Lately I’m been extremely anxious about the situation. I’m so happy for you, I’m so glad you’re removing that poison out of your body, I’m gonna keep you in my prayers, I wish you a very good luck! I’m pretty sure you’ll be fine, you are in the best hands, I’m been researching dr Mir for months, he’s a pioneer in this type of surgery. Without disrespecting anyone, probably the best surgeon for this. I live an hour away from Beverly Hills, if you ever need anything while recovering, don’t even hesitate to ask me. Can I inbox you sometime for some some questions like what type of insurance you have, surgery process etc? I do have BC out of network insurance, I hope he will take it. I’ll post my experience after my consultation. If he wants to do my surgery then I’ll post pictures before and after. Thank you very much and I’ll talk to you soon my dear.

I’m schedule to have two surgeries for silicone removal with dr Mir the 19th and 22nd of April!! Excited yet nervous.

Hello ladies, wish me luck, I got the great news today, my insurance approved both surgeries. I’ll be having my surgery with Dr Mir in LA, I’m super excited and nervous at the same time. Wish me luck, I’ll be posing pictures pre-op and post-op pretty soon. I don’t really have serious complications yet but my left hip keeps getting swollen and I have silicone injected into my muscle, I have no discoloration, or lumps either but I’m always low energy lol. I’m just worried about getting an Infection after the surgery, that’s my biggest fear but I have to get the strength to do this journey and whatever it takes to remove this poison out of my body before something bad happen.
