Surgical removal of Aquafilling localized to different sites.

<b><br>Introduction:</b> Aquafilling, a widely used soft-tissue filler since 2005, shows multiple adverse effects, necessitating the development of effective methods for its removal. We present a surgical method for removal of Aquafilling present in the breasts, breasts with migration to the chest and/or the abdomen, and the buttocks, and elaborate and discuss the advantages of this method.</br> <b><br>Aim:</b> The aim of this study was to present a surgical method for removal of Aquafilling (soft-tissue filler) present in the breasts, breasts with migration to the chest and/or the abdomen, and the buttocks, and to elaborate the advantages of this proposed technique.</br> <b><br>Materials and methods:</b> The surgical Aquafilling removal method described here was used in 25 patients (age, 21-53 years). The technique was used to remove Aquafilling present in the breasts (14 patients), breasts with migration to the chest and/or the abdomen (7 patients), and the buttocks (3 patients). The detailed course of Aquafilling removal surgery and postoperative treatment for these three types of cases is described.</br> <b><br>Results:</b> Surgical removal of Aquafilling with the described method did not cause any of the previously described ailments in each patient, excluding one patient who only showed significant pain reduction in both breasts preceding each menstruation cycle.</br> <b><br>Conclusions:</b> The method described herein can be recommended for removal of Aquafilling present in the breasts, breasts with migration to the chest and/or the abdomen, and buttocks, since it allowed thorough Aquafilling removal and decreased the local inflammatory state and the risk of potential carcinogenesis.</br&gt.
