Caution: Silicone should not be used for direct injection. The reason for this is there have been many complications reported. Short term, the silicone can travel to other areas, can cause local scar reaction and in the long term can be difficult to remove. No professionally trained physician in the us should be using this material. If you want lasting safe results go to a board certified surgeon.

Nothing: Not everyone can have side effects. So if your body is keeping it well, there is no need to do anything.
