47-year-old woman had silicone butt shots removed. She got amazing BBL recon.*

A 47-year-old woman who had received silicone or PMMA injections in her buttocks, also known as butt shots, experienced severe pain, swelling, and inflammation. These complications made it nearly impossible for her to sit, walk, or engage in daily activities. Seeking a solution, she consulted Dr. J. Timothy Katzen, a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in silicone removal. Dr. Katzen performed open buttock silicone removal, carefully removing silicone, damaged fat, scar tissue, and any contaminated muscle or skin. After the procedure, the patient reported a significant reduction in pain and a marked improvement in mobility. Six months later, she returned for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), a fat transfer procedure where Dr. Katzen harvested fat from her abdomen and love handles, purified it, and injected it into her buttocks to restore volume and smoothness. She also underwent a tummy tuck to enhance her midsection and refine her overall body shape. The result was a natural, proportional figure that she was thrilled with. She is deeply satisfied with her results and thankful for Dr. Katzen’s expertise in restoring her health and confidence
