What are the dangers of silicone/hydro-gel injections to the glutes?

Model

Many people long for a curvy bottom, but unfortunately many are mislead into seeking silicone or hydro-gel injections from so called “practitioners” in shady motels because they aren’t informed of the dangers that are associated with these so called treatments. To start off, silicone and hydro-gel are approved by the FDA in United Sates for Gluteal enhancements. Secondly if anyone were to perform such injections it would have to be a licensed professional, and since the product is not FDA Approved for this type of use no licensed medical professional in their right mind would risk their career or their license to administer these shots.

The silicone uses in these shots are industrial grade, not medical grade, are harmful to your body. The substance can cause tissue death and your body will react to the foreign substance by creating a capsule of tissue to isolate. These little capsules can move throughout the body and cause serious injury, illness, and even death. In some cases the substance can be removed from your buttocks but it is not easy and it doesn’t look pretty. Tissue will have to be removed and it may leave you with a large uneven scar and gaps of tissue where you buttocks used to be.
