Can the Bio-Alcamid be removed from my pectoral area?

Q.
Dear Dr Forrester,
in 2010 I had pectoral implants which were far from perfect, the surgeon based in the UK, then added a total of 60mls bialcomide in an attempt to even out the effects. Two years on I have since had the implants removed and corrective surgery in the US, however the US surgeon was unfamilar with the product and therefore reluctant to remove it. I now often have tenderness where the bialcomide sits and am keen to have it removed. I have three questions. 1, can it been succesfully removed? 2. can I have it done in the uk? Is it a expensive and difficult proceedure? I would welcome your comments

Hello there,

Firstly let me say that I have never used Bio-Alcamid and therefore am neither an expert in its use nor its problems. As you probably know permanent fillers have become much less popular because of the side effects. I understand that removing these fillers is not easy. I do know a doctor who is very experienced in the use of Bio-alcamid. I would not want to give his name out but if you email me directly I will give you his details.

Best wishes, Dr Peter Forrester
