Since then, I have been researching different techniques on making the hips and buttocks look fuller….There doesn’t seem to be much out there except for silicone injections and that is out of the question for me…I recently came across a site that described Artefill/Artecoll and how it is being used to give a more shapely and feminine figure….I was just wondering if you use this ineluctable filler and if it is safe? I am trying so hard to find a safe way to enhance my figure…..Thank you….

Hi Roz,

Thank you for your kind words.  If you could post them on our Yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MTF-SRS-FTM/   I would be very appreciative.

I do not do tissue fillers except for Juvederm Ultra Plus which is not permanent.   A very good video on Artecoll/Artefill is done by Dr. Lam…

why_i_dont_use_artefill_artecoll/

Please definitely do not have silicone injected to your buttocks as once in, it cannot be taken out and most of our patients have been done by less than skillful aestheticians.  The end result, pardon the pun, looks like a rear tire.  There is a doctor in Miami, Dr. Tiller who uses silicone implants versus liquid injection and seems to be well regarded, but I am detached from this area altogether.  We have done a few breast augs on pateints who had silicone injected into their breasts, and it’s like cement to open a tissue plane and the contours can be very cuboidal.

So hope I have been helpful, at least caring and best wishes,

Harold M. Reed, M.D.
