What does Biopolymer Removal consist of?

Biopolymers are harmful substances illegally injected to enlarge buttocks, lips or cheekbones, in order to improve physical appearance. However, these materials not suitable for human use generate serious health problems, affecting the entire body, especially the immune system.

Don’t risk your health or well-being. Biopolymer removal surgery is a safe and effective procedure, performed by Dr. Carlos Alberto Ríos, plastic surgeon specializing in Biopolymer Removal.

Why should you undergo a Biopolymer Removal?​

  • Infections: Biopolymers can generate recurrent infections, granulomas and necrosis, putting your general health at risk.
  • Autoimmune diseases: The presence of these harmful substances can trigger serious autoimmune diseases.
  • Material migration: Biopolymers can migrate to other areas of the body, causing irreversible damage.
  • Deformities: Biopolymers can deform the natural shape of your buttocks, lips or cheekbones, generating an unnatural and unsightly appearance.
  • Hardening of the skin: The area affected by biopolymers may harden, causing pain and discomfort.
  • Loss of sensitivity: In some cases, the presence of biopolymers can cause loss of sensitivity in the affected areas.

After Biopolymer Removal Surgery

From the first moment of your surgery

  • Immediately after surgery: You will be in a recovery room, where medical staff will closely monitor you to make sure you are stable and comfortable.
  • Drainage and bandage: During the first days, you should use a drain to remove excess fluid and a bandage to apply pressure to the treated area. This will help reduce swelling and promote better healing.
  • Medications: I will prescribe medications to control pain and inflammation, as well as antibiotics to prevent infections. It is important to follow the instructions carefully for optimal recovery.

Results of your Biopolymer Removal

  • Visible results: You will be able to begin seeing the results of the surgery immediately, although the swelling and bruising may take a few weeks to completely disappear.
  • Definitive results: The definitive results will be seen after a few months, when the skin has completely adapted to its new shape.
  • Scars: Scars will be camouflaged in strategic areas or natural folds of the skin. I will give you the best recommendations to minimize its visibility.

What would be the discomforts and care that you should take into account?

  • Pain and swelling: It is normal to feel pain and swelling in the treated area during the first days.
  • These symptoms are usually controlled with prescribed medications.
  • Bruising: Bruising is common and will gradually disappear over time.
  • Discomfort when sitting or lying down: You may feel discomfort when sitting or lying down for the first few days. I will give you tips to find comfortable positions to sleep and rest.
  • Limitation of mobility: During the first week, you should limit your physical activity and avoid sudden movements that could affect the operated area.

Important recommendations

  • Rest: Absolute rest during the first week is essential for adequate recovery.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and promote healing.
  • Diet: Eat a healthy diet rich in nutrients to promote recovery.
  • Avoid the sun: Protect the operated area from direct sun using sunscreen with a high protection factor.
  • Don’t smoke: Smoking delays healing and increases the risk of complications.
  • Avoid alcohol: Alcohol can interfere with the action of medications and affect healing.
  • Use of comfortable clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing that does not rub the operated area.
